[Pookus McFly]

6/267, still undecided on captain

Not great. But seen worse.

 

[Shaunpro1]

And that mentality is a key reason why the high run chances are usually unsuccessful and end up falling a long way off.

Minimise the dot balls, constantly rotate the strike and get as many singles and twos as possible. Hit a boundary and then aim to rotate the strike on the next delivery. No need to slog every ball. Punish the bad balls and try to target 1-2 of the bowlers.

Onus falls on Lynn for failing to stay out longer and trying to chase down the total with overs to spare. The longer they stay in with plenty of wickets in hand (eg 6+) or recognised batters, the more likely they are to win.

Dont agree at all to be honest, terrible tactical decisions that got them a mile behind the required rate and ultimately cost them the game, Ricky Ponting didn't hold back in his criticism either which I totally agreed with.

4/233 C Stoin

Far out some killer scores already!

Thankfully E on Wildermuth and Swepson and played Neser, he looked very good so I'm happy with that trade.
Carey was on the radar but to be honest never really factored this week, will have to just make the move next week it was him or head.

Looking at that pitch am now thinking Sams to Hales for last trade this week especially if I can wait till the toss.

5/362

Played: A Carey, T Head (new recruit), G Maxwell, A Zampa and M Stoinis (C)
Yet to play: A Tye, J Richardson, J Behrendorff, D Short, J Philippe and D Christian

Finch (new recruit) and Wildermuth did not score enough to bank their scores. Decided against Behrendorff to Siddle/Sandeep/etc as I wanted another round to assess options and how the potential inclusions and omissions affected the lineups, etc.

6/303

Larkin, Agar, Neser, Head, Steketee, Swepson

Possibly slightly above average, but those last three scores tonight brought it down.

@Herbie66 you called? I've updated Carey for you, now on 156. 😆

Try 166. Carey took another catch since then and has yet to receive the 20 points for scoring 100+.

 

[Herbie66]

@Herbie66 you called? I've updated Carey for you, now on 156. 😆

136 + 2 catches would do that 😀

should be either 166 or 176 , but definitely not 156

either way I don't have him so I still have 0 for him

 

[Professor]

5/259 Stoin. Played - Zampa, Khan, Maxwell and Head. Weatherald on the pine with 61, will wait until tomorrow to trade someone to a donut, or roll the dice.

 

[AaronXA]

@Herbie66 you called? I've updated Carey for you, now on 156. 😆

Isnt that because of the 2 catches??

 

[Rowsus]

@Herbie66 you called? I've updated Carey for you, now on 156. 😆

I think Herbie was hoping you'd get your tweeting powers going.
Carey only has 10 bonus points for runs, instead of the 20 a 100+ score should get.

Short square boundaries on a flat wicket screams Hales dominating to me, unfortunately don't have a trade spare.

 

[Herbie66]

funnily enough I am still 4/147

hopefully Roy outscores Wildermuth (E)

Head didn't hurt me

Strikers remaining games are against the Thunder so will need to think if I want to chase Agar , Neser or Siddle for those games

 

[Young gun]

6/303

Larkin, Agar, Neser, Head, Steketee, Swepson

Possibly slightly above average, but those last three scores tonight brought it down.

What are you going to do with Agar when he becomes more popular?

 

[Connoisseur]

what a catch! Neser

Same with Philippe?

 

[Jim's Dim Sims]

5/255 Stoinis if I take him I have to also take Wildermuth. Or Dorf and another captain. Not going well so idk what to do with that one.

 

[Ironhawk]

What are you going to do with Agar when he becomes more popular?

Not sure, there's others I traded in like Roy who are in a lot more teams (due to his double - he was below 5% when I traded him in), they will probably go first. Taking it round by round. There's only two rounds left after this anyway, during finals I'll abandon this and bring in a few more popular choices, but will still be picking a few POD choices too.

Well, the scores have locked in and Carey still hasn't moved... any idea if they actually can be changed at this point?
