Will hurt a lot who have traded him in, they will be hoping he gets a wicket or two now.
For me with Maddison VC and missing out on trading in North, I'm a pretty happy atm to be honest. Don't think people with Bopara and Henriques as VC or C will get very much of an advantage over my mistakes in missing a trade and Maddison playing a unnecessary shot.

After seeing him live, doesn't look too much chop so hopefully he changes my view of him with a couple of wickets. Lumb was just out of reach unfortunately.

Lumb's innings was one of the worst I have actually seen him play. Obviously I don't see him a hell of a lot but tonight he just was swinging across the line and playing some awful looking shots, although having said that he top scored comfortably for the Sixers with 50 odd.

Thank god this is something I am not interested in. To listen to Viv Richards, Gilchrist and other great cricketers agonising through commenting on park cricket is painful, more so for them. For a buck I suppose.

Runout with both batsman ending up at the bowlers end, thankfully for my side Kieswetter is the man still in. LOL
Gotta love the bias towards my players :)

BTW someone tell the Heat to bat Ben Cutting at number 4 or 5, he is such a good striker of the ball that he is wasted batting so low!!!

Yeah possibly a good idea, but do you have Marcus North??
Cheapie who has only played 1 game so far, bats 3 and with the Sixer DGW may be worth getting on.
I stuck to original plan with the C on Henriques and no donut.

51 is ok so far for the C.

Hopefully Hazelwood and Lumb reverse scores next game though

Even worse now!!! VC on Maddison who goes out playing a stupid shot!!! He had better take some catches and get a few run outs!!!
bloody maddison ! glad i went VC and not C
Even worse for me because he is my captain (Maddinson)
Have Maddison as vice captain, but the question is do you go:

Maddison (+9) v S.Marsh v D. Hussey v Mr. Cricket as captain....

I think the loophole helps if your vice has a -20, but otherwise make it's hard as even though Maddinson scored 9, he has a 9 headstart on my captain, if I don't keep Maddinson's score.

With Kieswetter's 50 score, I don't want Buttler to play...LOL

I have Bopara VC, is it worth going Maxwell C?
I always get these wrong hahah
One thing I got dead right was Christian to Henriques! Instant success haha, but a bit of a no-brainer tbh :p

Also Hales v Katich, Katich batting really well atm, and he's versing the Thunder at the Furnace!

Pretty hard, but gee Mr.Cricket is in some crazy form atm. I'd probably go him out of the 3 if you are not going Maddinson.
