Big Bash 2017/18

[JK]

Surely we need a thread for this???

Started last night with the battle of Sydney and then tonight we have Brisbane Heat (with BMac) vs a pretty strong Melbourne stars side. Heat batting so BMac action early on. No Lynn tonight unfortunately

Thought McClenaghan was pretty good last night with 2/25 off his 4. Fawad was exceptional

[JK]

Classic McCullum so far

Just hit 3 fours then a 6 off first four balls of the over and on 26 off 11balls

Stars need to deliver with that lineup. Heat still look reliant on a couple of big names getting going.

[JK]

Yeah Stars should indeed do well with all those names. Not well enough last night though with the Heat getting up despite Stonnis getting 99 runs (and run out too after being dropped on the same ball!). Great knock off only 51 balls

see if you can find vision of Jonathon Wells hitting a 6 over the Bill O'Reilly stand at the SCG last night. Massive.

Strikers star smashes 104m six in BBL

'The biggest six of the tournament'

[No Quarter]

Love the helmet camera view. I feel like 6 doesn't do that justice, I reckon if you get it out of the ground you deserve 9.

Interesting a hit from a batsman struck the roof at etihad, Voges caught it off the roof and the batsman was given out.

Would've thought it'd be ruled dead ball, similar to laws goveening overhead hanging branches.

Technology vs traditions
