India, Baby, India. Or Waca, Baby, Waca.

The Vics are going to India.

My first question is, will they take Kumar Sarna for promotional purposes?

Actually my first question is, how good would CWB”S McGain and Dirty Dirk Nannes be in a bollywood film?

Hero and Villain respectively.

Sorry I’m off point.

Victoria narrowly avoided disaster by defeating South Australia with 5 runs up their sleeve tonight.

The Vics got off to a good start, before someone poked the bear (Tait), and he ran through the top order like someone running through something.

We were 4 for 26, but Future Pm David Hussey made another 50, he collects them like I used to collect free McDonalds cups. Every time he leaves the house.

Lucky cause as per normal, no one else did.

Victoria stuttered and spluttered their way to 9/140odd.

And then Daniel Harris slogged Harwood around like an extra in a kung fu film. Right up until the 6th over it looked like they would cruise to victory.

I know that sounds weird, 6th over and all. But in all seriousness,that’s like 13 overs in oneday cricket or a session or so in real cricket.

Then Our Nice Bryce McGain came on.

He swung the game around, like tait had earlier.

He finished with figures of 2/11 off four

Does he even understand he’s playing in a 2020 game? At his age things start to get muddled.

He slowed the redbacks down and got rid of tubs Cosgrove and suddenly the game was back on.

NSWelsh import Christian, dragged the redbacks back into the game with some big hitting and hard running, whilst the wickets fell around him.

They ended up needing 14 off the last over, which was made easier by a six off Dirty Dirks first ball.

In the last over it was him and Dan Cullen with 9 wickets down.

His next one went for two, and Christian got a bit hungry off the third and tried for another six but instead picked out the Future Pm and Victoria are in the final baby.

I can’t believe I’m getting excited over 2020.

Off to Perth, and then India here we come, in November.

Well done to the vics. And since none of them are in the Test team, the Indians have no reason for hating them.

Have to feel for Tassie though. Leading the competition throughout only to have their campaign blown apart by Hopes and Watson.

I thought Hopes was vicious, until Watson came in.
