289 points is doable given your team looks much better set up than his. He is going to need to jag a lot more SGR scores than you.

I didn't notice Sharkattack circling, his team setup doesn't look too bad for the homeward run!

Don't let the guy in 4th worry you, he is all smoke and mirrors, just trying to make those around him panic.

If they don't fix the scoring glitch , my trades will completely change and I will bring in Rossouw , Brar and Chahar 🤗

Never seen it in any of their formats where scores have carried forward from the previous round into Game Day.

I guess this round showed the differences in scores by having Gaikwad or Jadeja as captain , so anything is possible.

Starc 😂 may hold the key as to how well I perform from here.

Should be ok for KKR this round , so yes all up to the SGR players how they go.

SRH scores have all fallen by the wayside so interesting with 2 DGR's to come.

So many options for that DC/KKR/RAJ DGR.

Anyone who lazily uses a boost for 129 points is a extreme danger.

It could be as simple as them forgetting to clear the cache to reset player's scores for a particular team from the previous round.

I've seen this happen at least twice over the years playing EPL (also the reverse when some scores reverts to zero during a live round).
Generally it will get corrected prior to the close of a round, otherwise it will be a problem as I believe they don't have the means to go back and make corrections once a round is closed.

All the best for chasing your ultimate dream for the remaining 4 rounds.

Edit: It could also be attributed to their recent update/enhancement across the different platforms whereby not everything is updating as expected.

I believe this happened in this format last year lmao, wouldn't worry yourself too much about it

Also not sure if this has been mentioned here yet, but for any others looking for a decent POD this week, Har**** Rana is missing the first game due to a suspension so cross him off the list

Certainly a odd one.

Yes I have seen scores wiped out before and then set back to normal.

Yes they can't go and correct things manually once a round has been finalised , which even with my limited tech knowledge I find bizarre.

Cheers

Thanks, was in my plans.

Thanks for calling this out!

Not many KKR players I like. Just adding S Iyer to Narine, DreRuss and Salt so far.

The double-bye-double for KKR and then SRH makes those teams attractive but tricky to navigate.

May need to trade my WK donut to maximize doubles players from here.

Equally the bye teams may mean a dedicated donut is not required or optimal.

I think there are quite of a lot of sneaky good options this week if your willing to take the punt.
V Arora, Rinku Singh or even Starcy all have potential to put up big scores

Nice one, thank you - is that a view on matchups or the like?

I normally pay a fair bit of attention to opponent and ground, but haven’t as much this season (partly due to time, and partly because it has largely been about getting in as many good batsmen as possible!).

Stoinis and Rahul look to be in good scoring form for anyone who is open to players that don’t have an upcoming double. Hard to pick over someone with two doubles to come though, unless the role is outstanding.

I like Arora but the role's not great. Mostly new ball bowling, Khaleel is one of the best in the comp in that role and put up a stinker on their double. Hasn't been selected regularly either, although it's not clear why...

Planning to add Varun myself but it's a difficult call. As long as Salt and Narine keep going off their batting order could be anything, it seemed like they pushed Rinku up last game just to get him some time in the middle - I don't trust anyone I don't already have to get time in the middle. For bowlers Starc has a good role but has been very average in it, and with Rana out of contention that basically leaves Arora and Varun.

Nah no idea about matchups tbh, basically just a stab in the dark based on past numbers lol

Yeah should play game 1 with Harsh out, hopefully can cement himself in the side and hold his spot. Maybe worth playing a bit safer if job security is a concern, would be hoping to hold most/all of our KKR players for their rd13 double

Ended up using the final boost for the above plans.

Donuts for Rashid and Russell was not part of the plan.

Okay considering the circumstances of two donuts and a Jadeja captaincy over VC Gaikwad.

It probably makes no difference, but you could potentially put the C on Pant at WK1 just in case Narine gets injured.
