Speaking of the BBL. Something I’m curious about is what the living arrangements are of a player who plays for a Franchise that is in a different state to where they play their State cricket.
Do they rent an apartment in that city? AirBNB or does a local team mate put them.up?
I imagine it will vary depending on what the players manager negotiates.
Some might include paid accommodation at Quest or somewhere similar, some might include an allowance, some might have nothing.
Yeah cause i cant image they’d be FIFOs cause they’d have to remain with the team unit for the duration of the tournament
Yeah they’d have training sessions between games too.
Speaking of Mr Lynn…
Erm…seriously? Someone in the BBL social media/marketing team is on the whacky tobaccy or the hooch that makes your insides melt. 
2nd year in a row.
If that is the best hair in the BBL, then I’m the sexiest man in the cosmos.
It’s just a joke. Nothing to get to worked up about.
It is a real credit to Chris Lynn and a great honor for him and his standing in the game. The fact that Player with the best hair in the BBL is peer-voted means this is an award that carries significant weight among players. When you look at that top five, all of them have a substantial social media presence and Chris Lynn was genuinely humbled when bestowed with the honor by Mark Howard of Fox Sports on January 1.
It is his clean cut image that has seen him win this award for the second year in a row, an image that Cricket Australia is very keen to advance in its promotion of the game. Likewise, when Ryan Papenhuyzen won the Golden Clippers award for best hair in the NRL in 2021.
Most major sports have a best hair gong for the player who not only looks good, but whose conduct is exemplary both on and off the field. It is a tradition which can be traced back to when the God-fearing, squeaky-clean, good-looking pin-up boy Tim Tebow won the inaugural NFL’s best hair in 2010.
Covers are on the SCG this morning and it was raining… We know it’s expected to be mostly dry, at least the first few of days, but just thought it was a good LOL moment given the Sydney Test’s history and annual ‘rain’ comments from the public 
I wasn.t getting worked up…
Is that your hairy leg in the 7-11 merch pic?
India won the toss and would bat first in the Pink Test.
Two changes for the team: Rohit Sharma “has opted to rest” and Shubman Gill returns. Prasidh Krishna comes in for the injured Akash Deep.
What a start to the match, virtually 3/17 (that should have been out IMO), but 2/17 is still impressive.
Good initiative but sometimes its goes too far in my view. My daughter plays girls blast and they had a bbq day initiative to bring a friend. She wanted to bring a male friend but couldn’t. Considering they are just 6 year old kids. In the end there was a big electrical storm so it got cancelled. Not sure if it was karma. Anyway having girls only cricket is still good and I support the idea, but bring a friend day should be males / brothers etc (in the correct age group). If they the boy wants to continue to play they can join another comp that allow for mixed.
Ouch, 3/57 lunch on day 1!
That’s interesting. I know it’s a case of wanting girls to have their own teams etc but i believe the blasts are a lot more informal.
I don’t know if cricket ever had a cut off age for when girls could play in teams with boys but when i played Under 15s there was a team in our division that was made up of half their team being girls. Mind you we’re talking 30 years ago
Just put the telly on.
Wow that’s quite a greentop there.
200-250 mightn’t be a bad 1st innings score on this deck.
India a chance to be all out by stumps at this rate!
