Test Round 1: Geelong Gators v. Madrid Magic @ The Gee Hole
v.
Overview:
The first round of Tests sees the Madrid Magic traveling to the Gee Hole to play the mighty Gators. The Magic are on a high after thumping the Kings at home in the ODer, whereas the Gators are coming off a thumping of their own, thanks to the Cheetahs, who bowled them out for just 175. The Gators will have to improve with the bat as it was the Magic's bowling that won them that game.
Players to watch:
Geelong Gators: A FOR EFFORT
He looked in good touch in the one-dayer before a dodgy LBW decision cost him his wicket. Look out for him in his BCFCL test debut, he'll be leading the side with pride and showing them how to hold the bat the right way up this week.
Madrid Magic: SIDDLE2FRANKLIN
He also looked good in the ODer. His 50 paved the way for a strong Madrid victory on a difficult pitch and with a batting pitch expected he could really cause the Gators some trouble.
Last time they played:
