Big Bash 14 is off to a good start.

Game 1 was Perth vs the Stars.Scorchers bowled and fielded well.Connolly + Turner chased the total down.In front of 30,469 fans.With 1 million tv viewers.

Game 2 Was Renegades vs 6ers down at Geelongs GMHBA stadium.6ers captain lead the run chase ,Henriques.In front of 16,000 fans.

Game 3 was a belter in Canberra.Thunder vs Strikers.Game turned with moments swings both ways.Till Sams smashed Pope the leggy in the,19th over.In front of 10,000 fans.

Also great to have Abc radio covering the BBL men.Havnt done so in the last decade.

Connolly will play test cricket one day I reckon. He has that certain charisma and swagger about him which will take him a long way. He plays with no fear

He actually plays exquisite cricket shots and his timing is sublime.
As he showed in the Sheffield Shield Final last year, the BBL Final 2 years ago and the Under 19 World Cup where he was Captain the step up in class and pressure doesnt seem to faze him one iota either.
Konstas also looks the same a class above.

It's a pity Dixon hasn't played for Vic yet, and Vidler for Qld, as both boys impressed in that Aust U/19 WC win.....more so than Konstas from memory. 

Cant remember which Aussie under 19's player ,Freeze.Was a sub fielder in the Brisbane test on day 4.

I have no idea how much Star Sports Network, in India pays CA.For the BBL coverage.
 BBL 13 .It was estimated that over 55 million Indians watched ,BBL 13.
Two new Indian streaming services have jumped on to BBL 14.Hotstar and Disney +.
