Do they pick him for the T20 WC Squad and actually play him ahead of Warner ?
I've said this before but I'd actually like to see Warner at 3 - he's the closest player to Kohli that we have in terms of anchoring the innings and finding those extra runs in the middle overs.

That said we kind of have a problem of plenty at the moment - after those two and Head you still have Marsh, Maxwell, Stoinis, David and a keeper trying to fit into three or four spots!

Hopefully crossing Stoinis out is the first thing they do to narrow it down!

Bit stiff on a bloke who just put up 124* last start - but I agree that he's probably the one on the outer. That said, we still have to hope they don't pick Smith!
You may be right, his T20I numbers aren’t too bad.

His ODI numbers are horrific, however … the last year that he averaged more than 24 was 2018!

Too late now but I would like to have seen Warner @ 5 (or 4)

Head , Fraser-McGurk , Bison , Maxwell , Warner , David

Who is the keeper ? Wade or Inglis.

Smith , Stoinis

M Short

Interesting decisions coming up , think they.neef to announce a preliminary Squad May 1 (can change)

Oh boy I have Parag who is part of the subs, reckon he still gets a bat? Or should I use a boost to get KRahul in in the event Parag doesn't bat and costs me a donut. I have no 'E' score for BAT line either, so it'd be a straight donut if Parag doesn't play

I don’t think I’d boost for one donut. That trade/boost should get you an extra DGR score (eg an extra 60 points or so - the same as covering the donut tonight) later on, and you may not actually need to trade to get a score in the next match. Ie the risk is that you trade for no benefit.

Good shout mate, I'll just run the risk in the hope he comes on as the impact sub

I am going to take a punt that he plays and keep him on field. Worst case is a donut if he doesn’t and he could have gone out first ball anyway!
