Cowan was better than all of them

[nrich102]

My boy Joey Burns is a much better selection than Cowan. I do think Lynn is better at this stage though.

Can't see why the batting lineup wouldn't look like this though:
1. Warner
2. Rogers (Burns after Rogers retires)
3. Smith
4. Clarke
5. Lynn
6. Mitch Marsh

To say Tassie struggled is an understatement.

The awesome thing is that we've basically got our best team playing every week so if we play like this every week, we could take it out.

Interesting week coming up where will final be played.  Rules State that final must be played in home state of team on top ladder.  With Junction oval unsuitable and MCG unavailable Victoria want to play at Bellreive Oval which is against rules.

Opponent more than likely WA may insist on following the rules whiche means that if Vics can not find a venue in Victoria game will be played at WACA.

Will watch with interest over the next couple of days.

I can tell you after getting stitched up in the Big Bash and having to play that at Canberra instead of Perth the Waca wont let it go easy if WA make it. Rules do state that if the home team cant get the ground it goes to the other teams.

To be fair the big bash ground was decided pre-tournament.

Vic vs WA at Blundstone.

[SydneyRox]

bit cheeky to say they outperformed so well. They lost more games than WA, only won 1 more.

Nice of Vics to pick the furthest away stadium from WA for them to travel to as well!

Was at the game today, because who needs to go to uni
