All chat on state games here.
Hughes opening well so far for NSW. Just smacked 3 fours off Dorey ;D
Hughes looked in good touch but flayed at a terrible short and very wide ball from Dorey, he got the edge and was caught behind. Just showing lack of experience there Hughes, which is why NSW can not win this year.
Now will be very interesting to see how the rest of the side goes. Forrest is looking O.K.
Forrest throws his wicket away. Batting powerplay was taken by New South. Spinner Heal was brought into the attack and Forrest went for the charged slog sweep, easy stumping for Ronchi.
Daniel Smith never really looked like doing much, he really struggled with the good length ball near off stump and Edmondson bowled a great one that moved away to cause Smith's undoing.
Steve Smith looked average. But miss timed a drive and hit it straight back to the bowler.
O'Keefe was sent in as a pinch hitter some what, Thornely clearly didn't want his powerplay wasted. Got away with a few windy wooshes, but hit 2 big sixes. Managed 29 (Best so far) before falling to Dorey... Who I really don't think is deserving his wickets.
Thornely gone for 16, not a suprise to me.
6/144 with 12 overs to go. We will be lucky to reach 200. We just don't have any strength in our batting line up.
Well, well Grant Lambert has fired in the lower order to blast us well over 200. 48 off 49, unlucky to miss out on 50. He should have batted up the order, perhaps even as opener, he opens in grade.
Handy knock of 31 from Warner as well.
I think we did quite well to recover to 220. I still think WA will knock it over quite easily however.
