@FoxCricket could Big Bash ever change the rule that if the fielder hits the bails that stops the batsmen from running again for that ball (rather than it be considered an overthrow). What are the commentators thoughts on this? @BrettLee_58 @MarkHoward03 @juniorwaugh349

@Leo_Puglisi6 @BasilZempilas @9NewsPerth @GenoveseMichael I'm siding with @BasilZempilas here. He didn't mean any harm by it. He's supporting the women's final - good on him!

[The Idiot Box @TheIdiotBoxAU]

@BBL start your games 30 minutes earlier. Families are leaving early! Only 25k left yet 41k were here earlier. 10.45pm is too late.

It wasn't in Top Gun: Maverick.

@sunriseon7 @mattdoran22 were you thinking Mission Impossible 7 for that motorbike stunt?

[The Idiot Box @TheIdiotBoxAU]

Any chance of staggering the #BBL double ups?

1. Heat v Scorchers - Jan 10 and 13
2. Strikers v Hurricanes - Jan 9 and 11
3. Heat v Sixers - Jan 1 and 3

Why not have each team play their 3 double up games before Christmas and then the other games after that? @FoxCricket @BBL

[The Idiot Box @TheIdiotBoxAU]

All @MarkHoward03 wants for Christmas is a new screen protector for his phone. Should we crowd source or get Mitchell Starc to perhaps chip in some cash? @FoxCricket

Live at @HYBPA HQ hanging with Tom's only fan. Next stop: His OnlyFans? #hybpa #studioaudience

[The Idiot Box @TheIdiotBoxAU]

Love your special on @Channel7 @thecosentino but the the editing is so jarring. Too many cutaways to the audience and in general too many cuts to allow us to focus on the magic. Which is a shame because you are brilliant!

Where was Charlbi Dean? #Oscars

[The Idiot Box @TheIdiotBoxAU]

How about the Culminator? Or at a stretch the Terminator? @gilly381 @FoxCricket @BBL

[The Idiot Box @TheIdiotBoxAU]

@marvelstadiumau We can't hear the in-ground announcer at all on Level 1 tonight. I'm in Aisle 38 next to the Gades arcade. Needs to be turned up.

[The Idiot Box @TheIdiotBoxAU]

@FOXFOOTY is that a @GoggleboxAU man hiding in your audience? Looked like Matt to me or certainly a lookalike! #bestonground

[The Idiot Box @TheIdiotBoxAU]

Great to have your studio audience back tonight @theprojecttv. Though it's very "clappy" sounding between breaks. Sorry to be picky but could the crowd be asked to also cheer a little as well, as it sounds kind of weird at the moment.

[The Idiot Box @TheIdiotBoxAU]

@ImACelebrityAU Can I quietly request a live performance of Living In The Jungle from @BrookeMcClymont, @_Dylan_Lewis_ and the rest of the cast for the Grand Finale this Sunday night? It's a banger! 🎸🎵

[The Idiot Box @TheIdiotBoxAU]

@BBL any chance of some pregame entertainment and a national anthem performer for the Grand Final on Friday night? It would really help improve the atmosphere a lot if this can be locked in.

[The Idiot Box @TheIdiotBoxAU]

@RenegadesBBL @marvelstadiumau @BBL that motorbike show was awesome but some background music would have made it even cooler. As a general rule the music is too quiet tonight too - it would be awesome to pump it up a lot louder. The Big Bash needs a party vibe!! 🎵 #BBL

[The Idiot Box @TheIdiotBoxAU]

Comedians in the box is a great addition for the #BBL11. It's meant to be a light and fluffy format so it works well. Well done @7Cricket. Loving your work tonight @nazeem_hussain and look forward to you being on again tomorrow...

[The Idiot Box @TheIdiotBoxAU]

@7Cricket The prize for a crowd catch should defs be free tickets to @nazeem_hussain's next gig if you catch it or a romantic dinner with @AndyMaherDFA if you drop it. Would make for some high stakes cricket! @bradhodge007😂
