BACKYARD BASH LEAGUE​

Welcome to the RCG (Rogerson Cricket Ground), home of the Backyard Bash League.

Northern Nightingales

|Player||
|Kurt Casey||
|Jay Bhakri||
|Ern Shylock| |
|Ronan Rogerson| |

The Northern Nightingales are the one of the three teams to feature a Rogerson, in this case younger brother Ronan, who will be a the team's main spinner. Ern Shylock and Kurt Casey look like key players though.

Eastern Eels

|Player||
|Fusco Wirihana ||
|Kristian Lee||
|Tim Shylock| |
|Kerry Rogerson| | |

The Eels are a bit of a two-man team, built around Kristian Lee and Fusco Wirihana. Indeed, they had to scramble to fill their roster and ended up grabbing Ern Shylock's younger brother and Kelby Rogerson's younger sister.

Western Woodpeckers

|Player||
|Kelby Rogerson ||
|Alex Leaburn||
|Fen Leaburn| |
|Randal Woodley| |

Forget two-man team, the Woodpeckers look like being a massive one-man team that captain Kelby Rogerson will carry on his back. They're also giong with an all-spin bowling attack with Rogerson's leg-spin and Woodley's off-spin.

Southern Superstars

|Player||
|Craig Lydiate||
|Kalle Lydiate ||
|Randal Woodley| |
|Jake Lydiate| |

The Southern Superstars are a family team, as captain Kalle Lydiate has selected both his father and younger brother in the team.
