Stuart MacGill has just been involved in an incredible partnership against WA at the SCG. When he came in yesterday, NSW was 9-200 and struggling. The other batsman Dominic Thornely was on 76*. Well, after nearly 3 hours in the middle, McGill was finally dismissed this morning for 27 after being involved in a 219 run partnership for the last wicket!!! Thornely made 261* and broke the record for the most sixes in a first-class innings in Australia. Instead of just having a wild swipe as MacGill often does, he batted very sensibly and just defended while Thornely went beserk at the other end. There's still some great Cricket played in the Pura Cup. Just a pity that nobody ever watches it.
