Competitions 2024 IPL RDT Fantasy- RD1: Saturday 23rd March-12:30am AEST

[Herbie66]

Traded Parag to Rahul before the KKR game via Narine.

Fully expect he will come on as Impact Sub

1254 Axar with Rahul to come

Needed more from Curran

See how it sits tomorrow

 

[Miller is a Steele]

1232 Stubbs
Pant 218, Axar 170, JFM 169, Narine 161, Stubbs VC 124x2, Mukesh 112, Kuldeep 60, Russell 49, Bumrah 25, Rohit 20.

Pooran to come.

Looking pretty good. Other than the Mumbai boys everyone has performed great. Only real mistake was captaining Stubbs. Boosting to have 6 Dehli worked a treat.

 

[Herbie66]

DC on the double

Pant 218
Axar 170
JFM 169
Salam 162
Stubbs 124

Still the same score. Was going to field Starc over Klaasen’s 7 but obviously I can’t anymore. Have decided to change Pooran out to Rahul out, and Bumrah out to Starc out. So effectively traded out of 7+Rahul to Pooran+Bumrah. Lose a future DGR player in Starc but he’s been terrible and all it takes is a Chameera 2fa and they persist with him.

Narine and Russell tonight.

Well this has turned out dreadfully.

1108 Kuldeep

Bad C choice put me off the pace

Will have Jadeja plus 3 other CSK for their double

 

[tso]

OPEN

Up 25
Pos 150

 

[Diabolical]

1,395 Axar

Pretty happy with how last night went given my captain struggled.

Can’t believe that it is open so early on a Sunday! Up to 4th and took 225 points off last rounds runaway leader.

1245 (Pant)

Up 2 to 24, very annoyed I didn't make more ground but that was probably a chain reaction from the absolute horror show of trading Jaiswal last week.

Now to think about which CSK players to bring in...

 

[tso]

Is what it is with funds and keeping DGR players for the triple one.

 

[Herbie66]

1349 Axar

Still can't get all XI firing the same round

Up 4 spots to 6th

Nice!!

 

[Woosie]

I haven’t used any. My plan is usually to only use them to take advantage of the fixture to navigate a tricky section, take a score that needs looping that can’t be otherwise or change my team around if a player was an unexpected out etc. However, none of those situations have presented for my team so far.

Now that I have removed all perma-donuts from my team and we have DGRs every round until the end, I am guessing such occasions will start presenting. Though we are almost at the stage of the season that I will need to use them or I’ll lose them!!

Thanks for that.

I haven't used them either. Never know when to honestly. You've given me something to think about though.

 

[mike89]

Right well this is a bit of a pain. Can't get Pathirana without blowing up my team and there's no other CSK bowler I trust enough. I think I'll stick with four for this round.

OUT: Shaw, Curran
IN: Gaikwad, Rahane

 

[T43597]

1075. Down 10 to 63rd.

 

[Professor]

1006 sees me move up 8 spots to 181.
Only 1 CSK player and a few average players that don't have currency so won't be able to get many in without dropping a top liner. Think I might forfeit this round and focus on the triples.

 

[Darkie]

Curran, Pooran, K Yadav
=>
Gaikwad, Pathirana, A Sharma

539k cash

Only 2 Chennai players coming in, for 4 in total. Seems a bit light, but I haven’t found another that I like at this stage (although I’m open to ideas!).

SRH have two doubles to come and a good looping draw, so I’m keen to get some of their guys in, especially quality players who have DPP. Up to 3 (if we include Reddy in the quality category) post trades.

Edit: I might go Gaikwad as VC (SRH and KIP bowling seems fairly shallow, and batsmen have been cashing in leaguewide). Also switched Sharma and Reddy because Sharma is more likely to be looped on field, and Vinod gives me an easy donut to help do so.

League watch

Clive Rose FC 755.3
IPL RDT 749.3
IPL RDT SCS 737.6
Public league (8 teams) 736.0

We are currently in third, but need a strong finish to run down the leaders.

We should have an advantage over many leagues in cash gen and ability to play the fixture, so hopefully we can put that to good use!

 

[Diabolical]

I think CSK are the least attractive of all the teams with doubles to come. Though it appears all of the top teams are light on them leading into this round, so is going heavier the play, or take a punt on a less popular player with one of the ins, or keep avoiding?
1st - nil
2nd - Jadeja, Pathirana, Donut (Sindhu)
3rd - Donut (Mandal)
4th - Jadeja, Ali
5th - Jadeja
6th - nil
7th - Ravindra, Deshpande
8th - nil
9th - Jadeja
10th - Jadeja, Pathirana

Undecided, but I think that I might target three to bring in. They are playing both games in Chennai so need to go back and look at who is more likely to get a chance to succeed there.
