*Official* Women's Big Bash League 2018-19 (WBBL|04)

Good win for the Thunder in the end, but I liked the spirit shown by the Heat lower order. Jemma Barsby certainly won't die wondering with the willow, not unlike her dad.

 

[NUFAN]

Does Erin Burns have a chance to make the Aussie team?

I like her style, seen worse options play and as I say this, she gets droppes first ball.

 

[Burgey]

Hayley Silver-Holmes has played a few games for the Sixers this season. She’s a Parra kid. Really nice girl. And all of 15 yo. Impressive.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Fazackerley looks impressive, she can hit it cleanly. Uses her height to good effect, long levers.

Well, that was about 10 seconds of close-up on an umpire's crotch.

 

[_Ed_]

Oof, that's a bad bounce. Hope she's OK.

Did you see her in the first game of the tournament? Ive been following her progress ever since. TBH I dont quite know if I think shes good yet, but she has promise.

Yeah I did, hit her first ball for 6 iirc. Been somewhat rocks and diamonds but she's still only 20 so plenty of time to add a bit of extra consistency and refine her shot selection.

Can this also be stickied?

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Bruce Doull getting a mention on today's commentary. Nice.

 

[_Ed_]

Really exciting finish to this one. Momentum with the Sixers now - it's disappointing that Suzie Bates got out when she did.

 

[_Ed_]

Bloody hell, what a start for the Thunder - Healy, Perry and Gardner gone for 9, 13 and 0.

 

[_Ed_]

Great to see Devine in such good form.

 

[Prince EWS]

How has King not played for Australia? Looks awesome.

 

[NUFAN]

I guess Amanda Wellington looked more promising the last couple of years but shes kind of stagnated.

From memory King didnt look anything special at all last year, I felt like she was a part time bowler but has obviously improved this campaign.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

King was certainty very impressive against the Sixers. The impression I get is that she has always been able to give the ball a decent rip, but her accuracy has improved significantly over the last year or so

 

[NUFAN]

Wow that was some finish. What a pressure catch off the last ball for Heat to advance to the final.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Healy and Gardner gone early, Sixers in a spot of bother

A random Stuart Karppinen sighting too

 

[Burgey]

Such a great finish to the first game. Was walking the dogs down past Drummoyne around that time and it was clutch AF.

 

[Spark]

holy ****, what a finish
