Hardie didn’t bowl in the praccy..

 

[Herbie66]

Worth noting Hardie batted at 3 ahead of Turner at 4.

Bancroft opened for one team, Inglis and Hobson opened for the other.

Posted in batting order (1-5) for both sides

Hi guys,

Anyone looking for leagues to join?

I ran 4 leagues last year (they all ranked quite well from memory, not sure if I can still check) and sent invites to previous members about a week ago.

There are still some spots left. If you're not already in one of these, do consider joining. Please join only 2 leagues at most to keep variety among leagues.

Da Best Leeg Eva (455563) - 7/10 full
Best of Da Best (884251) - 7/10
The Handsome Bunch (286703) - 7/10
The Fantastic Ten (674246) - 7/10

I still have some league slots left. So if you're looking for members for your leagues, I'm keen to join them as well.

Thanks

Feel the Heat in "best of da best"

Going with this currently :-

View attachment 49784

Allows me to loop both Gilkes & Rossouw in round 1, Wade can cover for either one. Wade I feel is a bargain if batting top 3 with his BBL history - would love confirmation that he is keeping though...

Potentially this gives me 11 players on the double round 1

In round 2 Inglis, Agar & Hardie come on, which gives me 8 players on the double before trading - Boult (on the bye) > du Plessis an obvious trade to make it 9 players on the double before any further trades.

I'm not keen on Inglis and definitely not on Gilkes, besides that the rest of the team looks good which I would of course say as we have many in common.

I have enough cash to turn Inglis into Hosein ... bloody tempting ...

Is in mine for now, his T10 scores recently quite good, I know that it is a different game but still gives an indication. Will be interesting to see how he goes in any practice games.

Same as all the stars mate.
Loop Rd 2

Reverse of course.

True but not cheap and high risk ...

Edit: how many MELS players can you start with ... not in my top 3 ..

In all seriousness though , Turner's not actually the worst pick.

Even with Faf & a new OS that batting line-up will be nowhere as strong as last season's.

Probably don't want to field him too often on a SGR though.

Just quietly I have had Bancroft in for a week now. In his last ten matches by my calculation he has an average of 53. I've never rated him before however he has experience and good recent form in the longer form game and is a POD. Made a not out 164 in a game one week ago where Inglis made 4...

Was just about to post the same thing

 

[Rowsus]

I think we need to be prepared to be fluid in R1. If loops fire, we change plans to take advantage of that and set our team up to be stronger going forward. That might mean taking Philippe out for someone else.

Absolutely the best way to approach Rnd 1, game 1.
Have your R1 G1 DGR's in place,then depending on how they go, structure your team accordingly.
That's certainly how I hope to approach it.
