Geelong Cricket Club batsmen Lachie Field has started the season with back-to-back centuries and is looking to guide his side to success.

Adelaide 36ers captain Dejan "DJ" Vasiljevic was completely locked up last Sunday as Melbourne United made light work of his side.

Sunday afternoon marked an historic day in NBL history, with United star Chris Goulding stepping on court for the 450th time.

It has been a far from ideal start for South East Melbourne Phoenix who remain winless after their first four games.

With a new season underway, the Cairns Taipans look like a new and improved version of their former selves.
