OR and other notes edit

I was at the Coolum v Glasshouse game for the last hour and a half or so.

  • Glasshouse were batting and were 2 out for 18 off 6 overs according to the scoreboard. I had missed the Coolum innings.
  • Post match I was informed by a couple of the Coolum players that Caloundra had forfeited their semi final against Hinterland because they (Caloundra) hadn't prepared a pitch for the semi. They'd prepare pitches for the men's game the day before but not for the women's semi. Why? I don't know.
  • Interview was done post match. Audio will be posted later and put in the article. A transcript should also be provided.
  • I plan to be at the Grand Final next week for the entire game.
  • MyCricket (the source at the bottom of the article) may take some time to update with the formal results. For example, It currently tells me the Coolum v Glasshouse game is in progress. All of the data for that game seems to be there as the game was live scored (data was input as the game was going).
  • The batting scorecards read from left to right batter and how out, runs, balls faced, minutes batted, fours scored, and sixes scored. At the bottom are listed Extras (essentially penalty runs), and the team total (read as wickets lost / runs scored). In the bowling card it goes bowler, overs bowled, maidens bowled (overs where no runs are conceded), wickets taken, runs conceded, no balls, and wides.

Pat
Into a home grand final next week. You must be happy with that?
00:00:04:05 - 00:00:16:20
Sammy Franks
Oh, it's awesome. Yeah, The girls played really well. It'd be nice to send Kez off. This is the last season, so a grand final at home. Hopefully we can win that one. And, yeah, give her a good send off. Fingers crossed.
00:00:17:14 - 00:00:22:08
Pat
So hopefully getting a few people down next week to watch what you do.
00:00:22:17 - 00:00:37:14
Sammy Franks
Yeah. Yeah. The Grand Final normally brings a few more than the normal. Yeah, we'll just concentrate on our game and play hard, and hopefully come away with the trophy. But. Yeah. Credit to Glasshouse. That was a that was a great, great semi final. It was a good match.
00:00:38:03 - 00:00:43:00
Pat
It was like they ere pushing it a bit even though they had lost five, six, seven wickets.
00:00:43:01 - 00:00:57:16
Sammy Franks
Yeah. They were trying to push the singles and we were calculating it out there, what they needed, they needed about six an over to [get] their run right to get up. So we were concentrating on dot balls and just fielding really well.
00:00:58:01 - 00:01:03:04
Pat
No. Yes. And making sure their required run rate was beyond what they could get?
00:01:03:12 - 00:01:22:17
Sammy Franks
Yeah. Just keeping them down to like two an over so. They bowled really really well. Full credits to Aussie. The wicket was magnificent and the boys helping him out watering that a lot, feeding it lots of water and it's looking magnificent out there.
00:01:23:12 - 00:01:29:21
Pat
Hinterland next week. Anything special for them or just your standard prep?
00:01:30:21 - 00:01:39:04
Sammy Franks
Yeah. I mean, we've got to watch them they’re consistent and they've got some big hitters. Mel Shelley can certainly hit a four or more.
00:01:39:06 - 00:01:44:02
Pat
You’re not worried about them having the extra weeks rest because of the forfeit?
00:01:44:11 - 00:02:05:07
Sammy Franks
I think, you know, we fielded really well. We've got a solid bowling line up. So I think we'll bring it to them. Absolutely. Yeah, hopefully we can hit a few more boundaries and get some more runs on the board because that'll be needed to defend their big score.
00:02:05:11 - 00:02:08:00
Pat
What do you expect from Hinterland next week?
00:02:08:07 - 00:02:20:01
Sammy Franks
Oh. Good game Cricket. Yep. Good game cricket. We just got to have to watch the bowlers and just field well, do the basics right. And we should be right. Yeah.
00:02:20:22 - 00:02:24:17
Pat
What's the message to the cricket fans here on the Coast for nest week?
00:02:26:19 - 00:02:45:12
Sammy Franks
Just come down. If you want to watch a great game of girls Cricket. Women's cricket, come on down in there. We'll put on a good show for you. We'll try to. Thanks very much.

Perhaps the first image in the gallery should feature the winning team, not the losing team. I suggest the image that is currently #2 in the gallery. SVTCobra 17:25, 15 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Didn't see this before I published, but that makes sense. Heavy Water (talk) 17:34, 15 February 2023 (UTC)Reply
