'Absolute dog move' or 'very smart'? Cricket world reacts to Sixers' controversial final-over ploy
I’m an Adelaide-born Strikers fan and I have no problem with Silk retiring hurt. Now, the three separate terrible calls on wide deliveries… that’s where my problem is. If any one of them gets called correctly, the Strikers probably make the final.
