What an innings by Ben Dunk! 229 not out in 50 overs. I reckon he'll have a decent average this season...

Here's a link to highlights

And Tasmania's total of almost 400 still wasn't good enough. Queensland chased it down with about 2 overseas to spare!

That's the issue at playing at such a small groud, tons of runs it is essentially a batters safe haven!

Don't they play there every year though? No one has got a double ton before!

When Khawaga is hitting them at 150 SR I think you have to take it all with a pinch of salt, a lot of them shots would have been caught on the fence on a proper sized ground. Plus pitch looked to be an absolute road, little bit of spin but not a lot else tbh.

But well bowled James Hopes, 10 overs for 38 in amongst the carnage.

Does anybody know why they're holding the comp at effectively an out ground and not one of the proper grounds?

I Imagine most grounds are being repaired after Aussie rules and the drop in pitches need time to settle.

blokes just made 200+ and people knocking it because it was made on a smallish ground, jeez tough crowd in here

The whole ground is favoring the batsmen. Flat pitch, short boundaries and a fast outfield. If you get it past the fielder in the ring, it's 4 runs.

Who cares? Don't blame the bloke for making use of the conditions he has had put in front of him! Can only play what is in front of you. Just enjoy the hitting!
