CRICKET

Adelaide Strikers v Melbourne Stars @ Adelaide Oval The Strikers and the Melbourne Stars meet for the first time this season tonight at the Adelaide Oval. The Stars have slipped to 7th on the BBL table after yet another loss in their rain affected game against the Brisbane Heat at Metricon on the Gold Coast.  Their bowlers had

Adelaide Strikers v Melbourne Renegades @ Adelaide Oval This is a rematch of Wednesday nights game. The Strikers batted first and the Renegades were doing a good job with the ball until a late flurry of runs from Ryan Gibson and Jake Weatherald took the Strikers total to 171.  A total that I thought was very reachable on

Hobart Hurricanes v Sydney Thunder @ Optus Stadium (Perth) Immediately following day one of the test match between India & Australia (click here for a full preview) cricket heads to Perth for the first of two BBL games this evening. Both sides are coming off loses.  The Thunder were comprehensively beaten in the end by the Brisbane Heat

Australia v India @ SCG Not many thought after the disaster of Adelaide and with Virat Kohli on the plane home that the Indian’s would be able to square the series at one all in Melbourne but that is exactly what they did. India set the game up in the first innings with a terrific bowling effort once again

Perth Scorchers v Sydney Sixers @ Optus Stadium (Perth) Looks can be deceiving and so can the BBL ladder!  Seventh (Perth) plays First (Sixers) tonight in what promises to be a great game of cricket. The Scorchers have won two in a row and are back playing in front of a charged up home crowd. Josh Inglis has

Hobart Hurricanes v Melbourne Stars @ Blundstone Arena After a strong start to the competition the Melbourne Stars have now lost 3 in a row and are in danger of dropping out of the top 5. They were cruising in their run chase at 3 for 112 when these two teams met on Jan 2 before losing 6

Hobart Hurricanes v Melbourne Stars @ Blundstone Arena Cricket returns to the apple isle this afternoon when the Hobart Hurricanes take on the Melbourne Stars. The Hurricanes returned to the winners stall after defending 150 against the Heat.  The Heat needed just 6 runs off the final over but fell 1 run short thanks to a clutch final

Melbourne Renegades v Sydney Thunder @ Metricon Stadium The Renegades and Thunder clash for the second time this season on New Years Day. It was a one sided affair when these two sides met on Boxing Day.  The Thunder posted a huge score of 209 batting first and have since made another monster score of 219 against the

Hobart Hurricanes v Brisbane Heat @ The Gabba This is a rematch of Sunday nights clash at the Gabba where the Heat were able to chase down the 148 set by the Hurricanes to win their first game. A 73 run partnership at the top of the order between Bryant and Heazlett set the Heat run chase up

Perth Scorchers v Adelaide Strikers @ Adelaide Oval Despite losing their first two games the Perth Scorchers will go in as favourites against the Adelaide Strikers tonight. The Strikers have two wins and two loses to this point.  They will welcome back Alex Carey who was unavailable against the Heat due to a quarantine issue but look likely

Sydney Thunder v Melbourne Renegades @ Manuka Oval The first match of tonight’s double header will see the Sydney Thunder play the Melbourne Renegades in Canberra. The Thunder entered the tournament as rank outsiders but have been more than competitive in their games so far. I have previously talked about one of their big strengths on paper being

Australia v India @ MCG The second Test between India and Australia begins on Boxing Day. The build up to the first test was immense and whilst it was an exciting game the psychological damage inflicted on India by the Australian’s may have turned this into another one sided Australian summer. I suggested a bet on India at $2.70

Sydney Thunder v Perth Scorchers @ Manuka Oval The Perth Scorchers looked a huge chance of beating the title favourites, the Melbourne Stars, before rain ended proceedings on Wednesday night. The Scorchers batted first and it was imports Joe Clark and Colin Munro who did the damage at the top of the order. Then a nice cameo from
