My first Big Bash game, ten years on

I'm going to the Thunder-Renegades T20 tomorrow night. Worried it might be an anticlimax after this Test.
— Rick Eyre (@rickeyrecricket.com on Bluesky) (@rickeyrecricket) December 29, 2011

December 30 2011: My first attendance at a BBL game, my only game in the Big Bash League’s first season, and my first to a T20 match in almost six years. Sydney Thunder versus Melbourne Renegades at ANZ Stadium (as Stadium Australia was known at that period). It was scheduled for the evening of what would have been the fifth day of the Boxing Day Australia versus India Test, which thankfully ended in four.

There was never any doubt in my mind about which BBL team I would seek to support. The Sydney Sixers’ glitzy narcissistic image was a turnoff from the start, so despite the blandness of the name and the logo, Sydney Thunder it was.

Despite my pre-match protestations that I wouldn’t be tweeting from the game… I did.

Stay till end for the Fox Sports News report on the game.

(In case this page loads slowly because of all the embedded tweets, they can all be read on one Twitter page within this search range.)

Renegades have won the toss at the SOP and will bat first. Beautiful weather. Good crowd rolling in.

Pre-match entertainment is from the same template they use for #NRL games. Take it or leave it.
— Rick Eyre (@rickeyrecricket.com on Bluesky) (@rickeyrecricket) December 30, 2011

There's a cameraman with a segway on the field and he hasn't crashed yet. And the stadium is filled with smoke from gratuitous fireworks.

Great outfield catch by Floros. If there was a roof that would have hit it! Hodge gone.

And a brief and completely pointless performance of Smoke On The Water by the live band between overs.

3/115 (16). Mel R have lost momentum. And here comes Fidel for his third spell of the night. What a trooper.

4 wides. Thank you Fidel.

Fidel Edwards finished with 4-0-30-1, the most expensive of the Thunder bowlers.

Can Pakistan take the Renegades to a winning total? #bigbash #bblsydtmelr

Abdul Razzaq joined Shahid Afridi at the crease for the Melbourne Renegades.

And another top catch by Uzzie. Ronald McDonald comes to the crease in this KFC T20.

Ronald McDonald departs first ball. So much for ambush marketing. #bigbash #bblsydtmelr

Ronald (Andrew) McDonald would later join the Sydney Thunder to become part of their BBL05 championship squad.

Afridi and Razzaq have really taken control for now. 1/68 (10)

This time I'm less surprised that there's a wave. Still disrespectful though.
— Rick Eyre (@rickeyrecricket.com on Bluesky) (@rickeyrecricket) December 30, 2011

That six from Gayle landed about nine rows in front of me and I'm in row 37. Gayle 52*
— Rick Eyre (@rickeyrecricket.com on Bluesky) (@rickeyrecricket) December 30, 2011

Attendance 18731. Disappointing, but I am happy to have been the 1.
— Rick Eyre (@rickeyrecricket.com on Bluesky) (@rickeyrecricket) December 30, 2011

Plenty for organisers to think about with that attendance. Too much big cricket across Sydney in too short a space of time?
— Rick Eyre (@rickeyrecricket.com on Bluesky) (@rickeyrecricket) December 30, 2011

Nannes 0/10 from his 4 overs. Great stuff. Will we see the Wild Thong flap again tonight?
— Rick Eyre (@rickeyrecricket.com on Bluesky) (@rickeyrecricket) December 30, 2011

Afridi strikes again. Khawaja gone. Warwick Armstrong the new batsman.

— Rick Eyre (@rickeyrecricket.com on Bluesky) (@rickeyrecricket) December 30, 2011

He's a Wild Thing again. Dunk out. Floros in. Thunder's lack of depth showing?
— Rick Eyre (@rickeyrecricket.com on Bluesky) (@rickeyrecricket) December 30, 2011

Gayle out for 75. Goodnight Sydney.
— Rick Eyre (@rickeyrecricket.com on Bluesky) (@rickeyrecricket) December 30, 2011

16 to win off the last over. It ain't gonna happen.
— Rick Eyre (@rickeyrecricket.com on Bluesky) (@rickeyrecricket) December 30, 2011

All over. Renegades win by 6 runs.
— Rick Eyre (@rickeyrecricket.com on Bluesky) (@rickeyrecricket) December 30, 2011

Both teams got off to a cracking start and were contained in the later overs. In the end the Renegades greater depth won the.night.
— Rick Eyre (@rickeyrecricket.com on Bluesky) (@rickeyrecricket) December 30, 2011

A close margin masks the fact that this wasn't the most outstanding advert for the T20 game. Thankfully, the Second Test starts Tuesday 🙂
