Raza dropped. Doubt we'll see him again.
Literally never heard of this Australian guy who’s replaced him either

The earlier match this morning was one of the wildest games I’ve ever seen

That shot might be the end of him in IPL.

Yep ,limped to 5 then attempted a Brendan Taylor signature ramp shot but went straight to 3rd man on the boundary.

tbf the whole team bar Shikar Dhawan failed with the bat. Shikhar has played an amazing innings to give them some chance.

Always thought Dhawan is a fabulous cricketer, one of the best. Should still be in the India T20 side and I don't know how he didn't end up playing more Tests too.

Matt Short is a gun, captained the Strikers and scored an unbeaten 100 in the largest ever big bash chase.

Bowls useful off-spinners in this format and has been in great for for Victoria in Sheffield Shield.

Definitely not a nobody that’s for sure.

Raza has always needed about 10 to 12 deliveries to settle before going for it. This new version of him relied on form mainly. Having a reputation is tough. The IPL might just be a 1 step too many but credit to him for making it this far. The pressure he us under to deliver is immense.
