Liam Scott | Adelaide Strikers
Yeah, but it’s been… probably a bit, a bit of match-up stuff (on opening the bowling). I think there’d be any hope where we can swing the new ball up top with Woody (Luke Wood) and myself, so it worked out tonight, but we’ll wait and see how we go.
Awesome, what a venue (on the Adelaide Oval), I know the Oval doesn’t get any better, so up 40,000 here, it’s awesome.
