Strategy BBL|14 Round 9: Trades/XvY, strategy & other related news and VC/C poll

[The_Mith]

Yeah or Nah?

 

[Boomerstar08]

Chaudhary to get a jump on next week?

Just realised didn't include him, but I've got him in my team too!

I am actually tripping! Don't have Chaudhary and don't know why I thought I did... but too late now anyway to trade him in

 

[Herbie66]

Thanks for the help. Going to be tight. Just continuing my awful season. When does the real SC start?

No Bazley in the Strikers Squad so should be able to do something with him and Marsh before tonight's game and get 2 guys playing

 

[Rowsus]

Yeah or Nah?

Why not?

[Dravid]

Yeah or Nah?

Not a big fan of getting rid of Dwarsh... But makes sense if it rains.

 

[Diabolical]

I wish the Thunder weren't playing tonight. This is proving to be a tricky round to get my head around with the Sydney weather.

Yeah for them to play first after a rained out double... Almost a perfect storm!

Not to mention, Canes playing first who are on the next double.

 

[nmh94]

Yeah or Nah?

It was reported on this site that Overton won't be around for the last round, so I am not sure he is worth the risk if you don't already own him.

 

[Herbie66]

Settled on Agar - > Meredith so far

Look at the others tomorrow

ST v PS Round 8 on Monday does that have possible weather concerns also ?

Certainly wasn't expecting Boyce getting dropped , along with possible Sixers weather concerns with Abbott & Dwarshuis

Might have to keep Agar now if he is named.

 

[The_Mith]

Not a big fan of getting rid of Dwarsh... But makes sense if it rains.

Only other option to sell instead is Green but he plays tonight, so if I hold Dwarsh and tmrw is called off, would force me to cop a Konstas / Zampa type without a loop which would leave me in a potentially rough situation.

 

[Herbie66]

Max Bryant currently sitting in 9th for aggregate for the season.

The leading Bat only player at the moment

 

[Melmo]

Have currently gone Philippe > Wade. Don’t love Wade, but I’m able to loop him and Philippe has a massive BE in a potentially rained out game.

Other trades will be dependent on if I need a loop, but currently looking at Dwarsh > Webster and Agar to Neser. If the game does go ahead tomorrow Neser will become Smith.

Looping all my hurricanes except Owen, who I’ll VC, as he’s averaging 97 at home this season.

 

[Brendan12]

Owen v Jordan?

 

[Pacifico]

Owen v Jordan?

usually always back the bowler in

 

[Herbie66]

If it was me , I would be trying to get as many playing as possible

Probably have to hold your Thunder players with the weather uncertainty

I would look at Marsh (definitely not playing the next 2 games) & Weatherald - > say to David & Meredith (in preparation of their DGR) tonight , hold onto the 3rd trade

Then if Weatherald is in the starting XI possibly can swap him out to Bazley instead (fingers crossed at least 1 of them plays)

Then you might get a clearer indication tomorrow re the SS v PS game.

You might then have to trade out 1 of your remaining 4 PS/SS otherwise hold them for Round 8 & 9.

😀

Should've followed my own advice

Got Meredith ✓

Missed David , again

 

[Connoisseur]

Current plans:
Out: O Davies, S Harper and W Agar
In: H Manenti, N Chaudhary and M Owen
View attachment 82549

Change of plans with Davies staying, loop trade reversed with the Bazley news and Doran traded instead since he isn’t of much help if I wish to hold Stoinis/Harper for loops. Wade comes in over Owen with David under consideration as well but opted for an opener and potential keeper points. Jordan and maybe another Canes bowler Ellis/Meredith under consideration for next round. Kept Green as I wanted a piece of the Thunder bowling lineup for this match in case others were selling off all of their Thunder bowlers.

 

[Tamuhawk]

Webster & Zampa v Neser & Buckingham

 

[Old Big 'Ead]

Got Meredith ✓

I should have followed your advice too... Went Jordan, and no other Cane.

 

[Under The Dome]

Webster & Zampa v Neser & Buckingham

First one.

Webster you know gets a hit, may potentially bowl and definitely misses next game.
Zampa not the best but scored 34 and 60 in his two Marvel games (2/3 finish there)

Neser has a decent bowling role and can hit late but may not face many. Also potential for rain affected game next GW.
Buckingham does he hold his spot if he even plays?
