Cricket at the Dish
Last week, Cricket Australia launched its new junior development program, Cricket Blast, at the Parkes Observatory. The event featured dozens of kids and a number Big Bash League players: Chris Lynn (Brisbane Heat), Alyssa Healy (Sydney Sixers), Peter Handscomb (Melbourne Stars), Ash Gardiner (Sydney Sixers), D’Arcy Short (Hobart Hurricanes), and Nic Carey (Sydney Thunder). The kids played cricket with The Dish in the background and, though the pitches proved to have somewhat variable bounce, the launch was a great success. (Image credit: John Sarkissian)
