I keep banging on about Vera Lynn, but he really is my current nemesis. whenever I pick him he's rubbish, whenever I don't he scores points for fun and punishes my lack of faith in him.

this time I picked him, after being punished severely by his omission in a tournament last year, and in 7 of his 14 BBL matches he has posted scores of 14 or less.

He won't get anywhere near my IPL team, so I suggest that everyone else puts him in their teams, because he'll have a belter of a tournament.... might even be a record breaking tournament for him.

Done BH's RR the power of good. Twatto will really have to twat it now! Even then a MS victory over SS in the final group match will do for him.

A Melbourne Stars loss is always a good thing. Hopefully the Sixers can wallop them as well and deny them a spot in the finals.

Last night's thumping was something else entirely though. It was awesome (in the more traditional sense).

It is only a pity that B McCullum was not out there batting in his last match in Brisbane. He has been a great addition to the BBL, and will be missed.

Barring something unlikely from Twatto forcing the Thunder into the semis, my fate lies in Wade outscoring Nabi by a hundred-odd points...


Wade has been dropped twice by Fawad Ahmed ... is he a mate of yours!?!

Ian being rewarded for just about hanging in there, for just about long enough.

If Red is right about about Nabi, then his only hope is that Wade fails to score 68 points in the one or perhaps two matches he has remaining.

Pretty tight all the way down the board this year.

Wade has to score another 68 points
