I thoroughly enjoyed reading 37 pages of good advice, thank you to all of you.
one question about the first round. Do we have the team finalized by the first game or can we still trade and change players if they have not played yet
Rolling lockout every round so yes definitely can change players up until the start of the 4th game

Approx $22k by my estimates ... but other variables will come into play
Not sure if he is worth starting if he is only here for 3 games.

Problem is their doesn't seem too many alternatives at the same price who are likely to play , a couple of Sixers but likely to dissappear when Bird & Henriques are back , not sure Doggett/Tremain are best XI at the Thunder , Kuhnemann might get early games at the Heat.

Gannon's probably down the pecking order at the Scorchers , but they generally have a few injuries.

Morris maybe at the Stars , depending on the rest of their signings.

Don't think Valente makes the Strikers starting XI

if he could make close to $ 30k maybe worth a trade down.

If he could pull a 50 average he would get that $30k ..... ($34k by my estimates) ...

Not currently in my plans though as it is an early "possible" forced trade ....

I would prefer not to start him but do have a possible Round 4 trade in target that I could use , if he could get that $ 25 - 30 k profit.

Will keep looking for some possible alternatives.

Currently looking to pay a touch more and loop Bryant .... in a team known for going down all guns blazing ....

- still got three positions left up for grabs though ... Wildermuth, Dunk and Cartwright .... would be instantly resolved if Pucovski lines up round 1 though !!

Bryant/Hughes , Turner , Wildermuth are all taking turns on my bench at the moment.

May need to lose McDermott and just trust Gotch/Dunk for a round.

If they can't get the Test Squad into Adelaide on time , who knows Pucovski might suddenly become available 😀

Still waiting to see the ramifications of this "X factor" rule ...

- If your player starts and takes say a catch, gets a wicket or scores a "0" etc and then gets subbed out of the game do the points still stand ...
- Likewise do points for a player subbed into the game still count .... current rules say any points for a substitute player won't count this year I believe ...

So many grey areas left to be resolved like having non playing players on the bench could potentially bite with this new rule ...
- TBH I don't know yet !!

SHEFFIELD SHIELD
WILL PUCOVSKI (STARS)
495 runs at 247.50, High Score: 255.
Everyone knows who Will Pucovski is. If you don’t, he’s the 22-year-old star-in-the-making, who’s been named in Australia’s Test squad after amassing 495 runs in his three Shield innings this season.

SEAN ABBOTT (SIXERS)
261 runs at 130.5, High Score: 102*.
14 wickets 17.92.

The NSW gun is doing it all, ranking third for wickets and 14th for runs in the opening four rounds of the competition. He’s a BBL star, too, making his position in the Test squad the only thing getting in the way of him being a must-have.

SHAUN MARSH (RENEGADES)
485 runs at 97, HS: 134.
Marsh was the 5th-highest run-scorer in last summer’s BBL and his red-ball form has been outstanding again, with the left-hander posting three centuries so far.

CAM GREEN (SCORCHERS)
485 runs at 97, HS: 134
2 wickets at 36.5.

Along with Pucovski, Green has been the talk of Australian cricket this year. He’s back bowling – albeit just 24 overs in his four Shield games – and he smashed 197 with the bat against NSW in October.

JOSH INGLIS (SCORCHERS)
354 runs at 118, HS: 153.
Two big scores – 153 and 125 – has the Scorchers keeper and opening batsman rocketing up the KFC SuperCoach BBL watchlist.

MITCH SWEPSON (HEAT)
23 wickets at 21.17.
The up-and-coming spinner, who is a big chance for a Baggy Green this summer, has taken eight more wickets than any other bowler in the Sheffield Shield.

OTHER NUMBERS OF NOTE
Sam Whiteman (Scorchers) and Moises Henriques (Sixers) have both scored two centuries.
Nathan Ellis (Hurricanes) is the equal-third leading wicket taker with 12.
Will Sutherland (Renegades) has taken 2/61, 3/26 and 1/69 in his three Shield innings.
With Ashton Agar missing, D’Arcy Short (Hurricanes) bowled 28 overs for WA in their most-recent outing, but finished with just one wicket.
Strikers recruit Matt Renshaw posted an unbeaten 168 against SA in the final Shield clash before the break, while QLD teammate Usman Khawaja (Thunder) scored 131 and 46*.



T20 VITALITY BLAST – ENGLAND
WILL JACKS (HURRICANES)
309 runs at 34.33, Strike rate: 149
13 wickets at 16.07, Economy: 6.46.

And it all starts with the 21-year-old Englishman, who was named player of the Vitality Blast after a brilliant all-round display for Surrey. Jacks, who clubbed a century of just 25 balls in a practice match in Dubai last year, will play for the Hurricanes in BBL10.

JASON ROY (PERTH)
206 runs at 41.20, Striker rate: 131.
After a number of stints with the Sydney Sixers, one of England’s limited-overs stars has signed with Perth Scorchers for this summer’s BBL. The one-day opener struggled in the recent three-match series against Australia but he posted three half-centuries from his five innings in the Vitality Blast, including an impressive 66 of 47 in the final.

LIAM LIVINGSTONE (PERTH)
192 runs at 27.42, Strike rate: 156
9 wickets at 21. Economy: 7.53

The big-hitting right-hander was the sixth-highest run scorer in his first appearance in the BBL last season. But despite plenty of hype around his bowling in the shortest form of the game, he didn’t feature prominently with the ball for the scorchers. However, that could change after Livingstone, again, impressed with the ball in the Vitality Blast.

JOE CLARKE (SCORCHERS)
371 runs at 37, SR: 175. HS: 100*
2 50s. – 5th highest scorer

The Scorchers recruit who will fly into replace fellow Englishman Jason Roy for the start of BBL10 was the fifth-highest run scorer in the Vitality Blast. Clarke’s unbeaten century off 44 balls - an innings which included eight sixes - was one of the higlights of the tournament.

DANNY BRIGGS (STRIKERS)
12 wickets at 20, Econ: 6.55
Briggs looks set to be available for the entire tournament and that’s huge for KFC SuperCoach BBL, given the the 29-year-old has taken more wickets (172) than any other bowler in England’s T20 domestic competition.

DAN CHRISTIAN (SIXERS)
9 wickets at 30.
The former Aussie one-day all-rounder has moved to the Sixers and, after taking 4/23 and being named player of the match in the Vitality Blast final, there’s still KFC SuperCoach BBL life left in the 37-year-old.

ALEX HALES (THUNDER)
202 at 18.36. SR: 164.
The hard-hitting Englishman has had a tough year after being the first in world cricket to contract COVID-19. He struggled to find form in the Vitality Blast but the second-highest run-scorer in BBL09 is on his way back to Australian, re-signing with the Thunder.


INDIAN PREMIER LEAGUE
NICHOLAS POORAN (RENEGADES)
353 runs at 35.30, Strike rate: 169, HS: 77
The West Indies T20 star, who smashed the third-fastest century in the history of the Carribean Premium League, smacking off 100 off 45 balls, starred in the recent IPL. The Renegades recruit’s quickfire 77 - off 37 balls - against Sunrisers Hyderabad was the highlight.

MARCUS STOINIS (STARS)
352 runs at 25, SR: 148, HS: 65
13 wickets at 21.76


JONNY BAIRSTOW (STARS)
345 runs at 31, SR: 126, HS: 97.

RASHID KHAN (STRIKERS)
20 wickets at 17.20, Economy rate: 5.37

PAKISTAN SUPER LEAGUE
Ben Dunk (Stars)
289 runs at 41.28. HS: 99*. SR: 175

Chris Lynn (Heat)
284 runs at 40.57. SR: 179, HS: 113

Alex Hales (Thunder)
261 runs at 52, SR: 151, HS: 80

Rilee Rossouw (Renegades)
212 runs at 35.33, SR: 142, HS: 100*

Ben Cutting (Thunder)
146 runs at 29, SR: 189, HS: 53
8 wickets at 21.62

Imran Tahir (Renegades)
11 wickets at 21.63

CARRIBEAN PREMIER LEAGUE
Nicholas Pooran (Renegades)
245 at 27.22, SR 123, HS: 100. 5th-highest run scorer.

Imran Tahir (Renegades)
15 wickets at 15, Econ: 5.82

Mohammad Nabi (Renegades)
12 wickets at 17, Econ 5.10

Rashid Khan (Strikers)
11 wickets at 22, Econ: 6.85

Carlos Braithwaite (Sixers)
249 runs at 24.90.

Chris Green (Thunder)
9 wickets at 23.66, Econ: 5.68.

Ideal "donut" player for loopholes "tournament wise" as it currently stands would be a basement priced PER player .... haven't found one yet though !!
Won’t get a WK from them! I guess we watch the national side with interest to see if it could be Green!

If only they introduced the rule where 1 bowler could bowl unlimited overs , would completely change the game and tactics to use

Theoretically the openers and face the full 20 Innings yet a bowler can only bowl 4 overs.

A bowler gets penalised for height & width yet no restrictions on the type of shot a batsmen can use each over.

Just set up bowling machines and move the ropes in another 20 metres.
Or what about if a bowler doesn’t take a wicket in his first two overs he can’t bowl again? He can have an extra two overs for every wicket he takes. Could be more like batting then ... poor bowling could see ten players having to bowl!

Actually I was bit rusty in my initial estimates and have redone them:

So by my records if DC goes at an average of 50:
- First two games he will priced at ~114k
- If he holds that for another game it will be ~121k

So by my records if Khawaja goes at an average of 50:
- First two games he will priced at ~121.5k
- If he holds that for another game it will be ~127k

Will still be variables that impact them though.
Thanks for following up ... those price changes are a bit larger, although still not massive.

I had basically decided not to start these sorts of value picks based on the smaller price moves, this gives me something to ponder 🙂
