Coming from a cricket family, I talked with Dad about it the next day. We aired our awe and disparagement, as well as our ‘impressed-ness’ with the Perth Scorchers’ performance: credit where it’s due and all that.
Then a surprising thing happened.
I can’t remember verbatim what his words were, since I had my head in the fridge, and as mentioned, I was surprised. . .
For background: Dad played club cricket for around 50 years, in later years doing more umpiring than grinding his shoulder sprocket (his signature recipe is spin bowling).

James Vince s masterful 95 and magnificent catch have delivered defending champions Sydney Sixers a 27-run win over Perth Scorchers in the Big Bash League final.
Vince s unbeaten 98 helped the Sixers crush Perth in last week s qualifying final at Manuka Oval, where AJ Tye s wide ended the match and denied the right-hander a shot at a ton.
The Englishman, asked to bat first in front of a sold-out SCG on Saturday night, picked up where he left off while marching the Sixers to a total of 6-188.
