Sanjay MurthyHOST
There you go.
Sanjay MurthyHOST
We had Chris Jordan on last week and he chose Browns Beach in Barbados.
Sanjay MurthyHOST
We'll come back to that because you've been to Barbados to play beach cricket just recently, haven't you? And I chose some random places.
Sanjay MurthyHOST
abandoned beach near Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic that I'd flown over Julio Gleisi's house to land on in a helicopter but that's another story as well so let's go before you tell us where your beach is just tell us about your trip down to the Caribbean to play beach cricket in Barbados
Moises HenriquesGUEST
To speak, you see Riley Meredith, Billy Stanlake, these guys for the Hurricanes over the last two or three years actually developed their off-pace balls.
Moises HenriquesGUEST
Chris Jordan developed their off-pace balls that almost become their biggest asset, but that's because they're actually so quick.
Moises HenriquesGUEST
So I think for Marley and Lance, it's not just going to be helter-skelter, pace, pace, pace, pace.
Moises HenriquesGUEST
It's going to be how do you manage that? How do you make your pace effective with the other changes?
BrainoHOST
We talked about Sean Abbott, but there's a couple of guys I'd love to get your opinion on here.
BrainoHOST
Ben Dwarcious, I couldn't find, and this isn't because I don't like him, but I couldn't find a spot in my team at the moment because I wanted to go a little bit cheaper and it freed up 30K to go to Chris Jordan.
BrainoHOST
But you've got Ben Dwarcious, bat bowl.
BrainoHOST
He's got the jewel, which is amazing.
BrainoHOST
Yeah, absolutely.
BrainoHOST
It absolutely is.
BrainoHOST
I'm just more so looking at it going, okay, which team do I want? Do I want Chris Green or Chris Jordan? Which Chris do I want? That's the decision I probably need to make at that position.
BrainoHOST
Both have bat bowl duel.
Tim WilliamsHOST
um they've got a really good
Andrew LangleyGUEST
good side and then you've got the sixes their bowling lineup is just sensational you know you've got jack edwards dwarshish abbott jordan um and that's before you even try and fit in o'neill or kerr or so i don't know how that's going to work um sam's and bolt over at the thunder the another team on the double and then you've got team like hobart who've got a double in round two And you've got Bo Webster, if he's not in the test team, Mitch Owen, both reasonably priced and capable of going huge on their day.
Andrew LangleyGUEST
And one that I do want to mention, who will be in my side if he's named in the team, is a young Victorian 20-year-old fast left-arm bowler, Harry Hoekstra, who's played just two Shield matches.
Andrew LangleyGUEST
He's taken 15 wickets in his first two Shield matches, which includes two Michelle Pfeiffer's.
BrainoHOST
You can't really ask for more than that.
BrainoHOST
So if he continues that role, which I think he will, I think there's every chance that he does and Sean Abbott, Ben Dwarcious, Chris Jordan end up being those guys that bowl the middle and end overs.
BrainoHOST
I think Jack Edwards is a guy that...
BrainoHOST
Will Bowley's four-over allotment, and he will probably bat three or four because no Moses on reeks this year.
HorseHOST
Hayden Kerr, the same.
HorseHOST
Tim Seifert will open the batting.
HorseHOST
Chris Jordan, he's a bat bowl.
HorseHOST
He'll be lower order.
Jamie BrownHOST
So do you need him in your side? Could do, but isn't a lock-in.
Jamie BrownHOST
And then Chris Jordan at 94K had his worst season in a while, so he comes in a lot cheaper than he has done.
Jamie BrownHOST
So he's someone that you could definitely slot into your side.
Jamie BrownHOST
Has the jewel as well this year.
Tim WilliamsHOST
33% owned, I believe he's not available for the start, but we'll confirm that one.
Tim WilliamsHOST
Yeah, elsewhere, looking down the list, who are there? Chris Jordan, yeah, okay.
Tim WilliamsHOST
Chris Green on the double, Jake Scott, if he gets a role at the Sixers, they're just so stacked, he could be okay, but they have had some personnel change over the off-season.
Tim WilliamsHOST
We've got three more slots to go.
Tim WilliamsHOST
Probably with the Australian squad.
Tim WilliamsHOST
I'm not sure.
Tim WilliamsHOST
Chris Jordan is dirt cheap at 94K.
Tim WilliamsHOST
Can't put any more sixes in.
Sanjay MurthyHOST
Today we'll talk about his journey, we'll talk about the pressure, we'll talk about dressing room stories and also find out who is in his perfect beach cricket day.
Sanjay MurthyHOST
Welcome to Closer Play, Chris Jordan, how are you?
Chris JordanGUEST
Yeah, very well, thank you.
Chris JordanGUEST
That's a good intro, to be fair.
27 MINS LATER
Sanjay MurthyHOST
This bit that we had before, Jonah, was just me and you has now become a feature, obviously.
Sanjay MurthyHOST
It's called Life's a Beach.
Sanjay MurthyHOST
Life's a Beach with Chris Jordan.
Sanjay MurthyHOST
CJ, you've got to build your perfect beach cricket day.
DamoHOST
So he's someone that I'm keen on.
DamoHOST
Chris Jordan's another one, 94.2K.
DamoHOST
I will strongly consider him.
DamoHOST
I don't know if he can fit him on my team at the moment.
DamoHOST
So...
DamoHOST
Really does provide flexibility there on the double.
DamoHOST
You can't go wrong with Chris Jordan.
DamoHOST
So he is someone that I will try and fit into my team.
BrainoHOST
Well, I mean, let's go back about 80K.
BrainoHOST
Chris Jordan.
BrainoHOST
Wow.
BrainoHOST
He's now at the Sydney Sixers.
BrainoHOST
He's very versatile.
BrainoHOST
We've also seen Ben Dwarshus bowl the middle overs and not bowl the death at times for the Sixers too.
BrainoHOST
And obviously, my personal opinion is that Chris Jordan bowls the middle overs.
BrainoHOST
Because I think he is the most versatile.
