What has happened to Tymal Mills?
He went from doing well in T20Is, to getting pumped round every game in the BBL
He was never a prodigious wicket taker even in local cricket. T  has never been able to swing or seam the ball. Great lad though.

His reputation increased in size when he bowled that one good ball to Gayle!
That ball was a very decent ball but nothing spectacular! It was the second over and I suspect Gayle hadn't got his eye in.
But the ball looked better as Gayle moved slightly one way and free up his shot but misjudged it.

So sometimes a bowlers reputation changes with one over! (or one ball!)

I call it the Jade Dernbach Effect - it's when you burst onto the seen with pace and all sorts of variations and do well because no one has seen you before but then suddenly everyone gets used to the variations and you go round the park.

Not actually watched all that much of Mills, but from what I have seen he seems overly dependent on the slower ball? In which case it's a classic case, there's been plenty of examples of bowlers with a good slower ball and not a lot else who are pretty successful until batsmen catch on to it, then get pummelled. Has he been doing that badly in the BBL?

Who makes Icon cricket bats? The sounds from the bat of D.Short was fantastic.

And you are sure it's actually an Icon bat?

I do not know. So that is why I asked this question.

What i meant is even with the knowledge of who makes Icon bats, there's no way to know if D'Arcy Short uses one, or anything else with stickers.

One of the highlights of the season might be how good Brendon McCullum has been with his commentary. Hire him full time for next season and we can finally get rid of Mark Waugh!

I like Mark Waugh, he's hilariously inept. An actual selector who knows fudge all about any of the players.

The selectors have made this final a farce. Only allowing certain players from the Aus side to be released. They’ve pretty much influenced the key games - e.g White was not released form the semis
