Discussion BBL|14 Teams & In Game Discussion: GW 7 starts FRI 10th JAN 6:15pm AEST [HOB v SYT]

[Young gun]

Is tightness an injury though?

It’s all mysterious and prevented him bowling and missed a game so it’s scary. Wouldn’t be surprised if he goes large based on the history of players going big coming off injury this season

 

[Dravid]

Bit of rain falling... covers on (maybe just one cover).

 

[Chumpion]

Hmmm keep Edwards or Banton? Will be on field.. leaning towards Edwards given he has more avenues to score if he does get overs

 

[7/11]

PSA: Am selling Edwards, make of that what you will based off of my previous luck with injured players.

Batting 6.
6 recognised Bowlers in the team.
He can still do well, but you'd bet against a big one.
Banton is hit or miss.
It's a very tough choice!

Yeah no a great role but probably a slightly safer floor vs Banton. Also only an injury away from an extremely favourable role again so more long term potential vs Banton who needs to go.

Fully expected Edwards to miss so wasn’t expecting this.. but might back him in to sneak a wicket and make some runs. Banton feels like a <10 point score or a 50+ score which is a rollerocaster I don’t need right now!

 

[Dravid]

Was planning to sell Hosein, but have changed tack to sell Edwards and keep Hosein. What could go wrong!

It's probably a good call.
In a Round where there have been so many single figure scores, backing the guy with the better floor is probably the right call!

Bowling the 3rd. You’re welcome everyone who kept him!

 

[Connoisseur]

Updated Short and rookie to Lynn and L Pope. Wanted exposure to the Strikers top four with Lynn VS D Short the 50-50. Had enough cash left over so opted for L Pope which involved benching Tye.

1/224
And Doggett starts with a ton over the donut from Pope. Never considered either until the Short news which I was lucky to see in time. Hopefully some respair today with the trio of Sixers (Dwarshuis, Kerr and Edwards) in action along with Walter.

 

[Dravid]

Quick 20 for Owen

The Edwards sellers can breathe a little easier!

 

[Tamuhawk]

Edwards getting smacked...

 

[Under The Dome]

Lovely Owen and not so Edwards

 

[Tamuhawk]

Owens too damn good. Could annihilate the sixers bowlers like he did the Scorchers bowlers a few rounds ago.

 

[Dravid]

Owen living dangerously... Sixers getting tonked!

 

[Tamuhawk]

Kerr wicket!

Takes out the danger man in Owen.

 

[Under The Dome]

Kerr wicket!

Takes out the danger man in Owen.

Happy with both.

Get 58 from Owen and +21 for Kerr

 

[Melmo]

Is it worth bringing curran back and flicking Walter/Renshaw/Stoinis to take Owen’s score?

 

[Dravid]

Is it worth bringing curran back and flicking Walter/Renshaw/Stoinis to take Owen’s score?

Its probably worth considering... Especially when he might get a catch or two (or even bowl an over).

 

[Under The Dome]

Is it worth bringing curran back and flicking Walter/Renshaw/Stoinis to take Owen’s score?

If he can snag any fielding points then probably Renshaw.
