As he often does, Glenn Maxwell is throwing balls for the @StarsBBL in the Junction Oval nets ahead of tonight’s WBBL match against Sydney Sixers. There would be few better cricket minds who are so willing to help.

With plenty of questions being asked of Australia's batting order looks who's back among the runs?
HIGHLIGHTS ➡️ bit.ly/4hYaG0r
Sam Konstas has backed up his first-innings 71 with a second-dig 50 against Western Australia. It’s only Konstas’ first Sheffield Shield game of the season, but he looks to be batting with a lot of clarity.
Victoria will go into the third innings after tea with a 34-run deficit despite having Tasmania 7-45 on day one.
Only 39 players managed 300 Sheffield Shield runs last summer. Ollie Davies just brought that up in 272 balls.
Harry Hoekstra has 5-12 off 8 overs in just his second Sheffield Shield match for Victoria. It’s his third five-for in four state games.

There’s a strong argument that uni students, people who are self employed or have permission from their boss can do whatever they want. It was a great environment and a huge success, but CV apologies for removing the 34 most productive people from Victoria’s economy.
