I know Abbott is in the Sixers squad, but do we reckon he definitely plays? I'm having a pretty poor week and am considering using my last trade to do Jhye -> Abbott if Scorchers Bat first. Would captain Abbott too.
I am considering Abbott too, but need to trade MMarsh to him which is the game before. Risky play without knowing for sure. Considering doing DC instead because he is certain to be in, but who knows what happens with his bowling and batting position.

I'd say it's very likely Abbott plays but would also say that sounds too risky just in case he doesn't play.

I would also think about holding onto Jhye. He is just such a good T20 bowler and feel that not having him would be a negative POD.

What are your other options?

Are you 100% sure DC plays ?

Abbott , Dwarshuis , Henriques all available.

Sixers with 3 games in 5 days.

I am having a truly horrendous round thanks to a combination of work and social commitments. Missed the K.Richo out so couldn't correct that trade.. locked all my E's without sorting my loop so can't take the Stoinis VC scores, and then missed the start time last night by 2 mins so couldn't get the Inglis to Carey trade done. Burnt once for going to early and burnt once for waiting too long.. can't win.

Now my options are looking interesting..

Captain - Jhye or Short?

And last trade - Inglis to Wade (if named).. otherwise genuinse stumped. Might do a downgrade from a bench player and build a warchest for next rounds trades.

Alarm set for 3.45pm...

Is Inglis WK1 and if so who is WK 2 ? (I am guessing it must be Pfeffer)

Would get Jhye straight back next week (hopefully for a fair bit cheaper)

If Scorchers bowl first i’ll just lock in Jhye C, and maybe trade out Livo to Boland/Sandeep/Cutting.

If Schorchers Bat first my other option could be DC to Cutting and captain Cutsy with no Sams (cant afford abbot). Feel that is very risky tho

lol

was just thinking that , I wonder if they give him a game "just in case" before the finals 😀

Looks like local players don't have to play a qualifying game to play finals (based on an article I was reading about Starc)
I've got 61 on the pine, looking to take it, but need to trade Roy to a donut, high breakeven. Or Do I go Malan, while others go Wade? 50k cheaper than Wade. I was going to bring Wade in next week, after I failed maths last night.

What are you doing benching Weatherald at AO when he is opening ?

mmm so many decisions to make and that horrible Marvel pitch for batsman.

I am hoping for a nice score from Roy , Wade I think can wait a game for a round , seen Malan a few times mentioned now by people.

Long time since I did Maths either.

Can you go Roy - > Sams (or Bison if not named) this round to get Weatherald's score and then have a look at Malan/Wade this round ?
