While the proper cricketers are busy rinsing India once again, the rest of Australia is getting ready for the final of the Big Bash. But which teams made it there?
Round seven: the end of the line for the cack teams.
Round six of the KFC Big Bash saw a record breaking innings from Luke Wright. That wasn’t the main talking point however, as Cricket Australia began to look at the all-important task of making the competition much worse going forwards.
Round five has been and gone in a flash, like a typical Phil Hughes innings. Here’s what we made of it.
Chicken. Cricket. Steve Smith. You know the drill by now.
From humble beginnings in Perth in 1974, Chicken Treat has grown into one of the West’s largest fast food chains. Sadly not large enough to put their name to a T20 competition with Michael Beer in it.
What began as a dream fueled by the Original Recipe, a no-quit attitude and a Social Security check grew into the world’s largest chicken restaurant chain. Plus a T20 competition starring Luke Wright.
It’s life, it’s a job and it’s KFC. It’s about being independent and having fun, making new friends and earning extra cash. It’s about being you. It’s also about a bunch of former cricketers dossing about in the sunshine.
With the 2011/12 cycle of fixtures well under way, we take a look at the progress or otherwise of each team thus far.
