I brought Nielsen in as WK. He won't do much better tbh but my team
has Sangha, Sams, Short, Rashid so the funds seem to have drained away.

It’s worth keeping in mind that if Brown does debut, he may disappear once Renshaw is available following the birth of his child.

Hopefully for anybody picking Brown he performs well enough in that first game to hold his spot even when Renshaw is back round 3.

Don't think its very likely he holds his spot myself but good to see him get an opportunity early on.

You’ve forgot Josh Inglis…

My guess is something like…

1. Lyth
2. Bancroft / Faf
3. Faf / Bancroft
4. Inglis (WK)
5. Turner (C)
6. Hardie
7. Agar
8. Richardson / Kelly
9. Mills
10. Tye
11. Behrendorff

The local paper earlier in the week had this as the predicted line-up which looks accurate to me :-

Yep, I’m in the exact same spot, albeit no Webster.

Gilkes this week and the extra Tye/Richo/Agar/Mills next week.
Billings/Wade this week and Hardie next week.

Knowing I could still get Hardie as well with option 1. Leaning that way given I’m getting the better option for a dgw, rather than single.

Do also have the option of swapping Shadab for Wade if my bat loop goes off - probably Brown if he even plays.
I dont own a third keeper at the moment so alot of it comes down to whether or not I want to be able to field both Inglis and Gilkes next round, feels like to get one extra of those guys you're going to probably be losing points somewhere else though, especially if Billings failed tomorrow night, hell of alot of good Scorchers when it projects that there's going to be ,Faf,Richardson,Mills,Agar and Tye all playing, Lyth and Inglis could both be very very good aswell not sure its the round to be going light

I am happy to let him slide. If he does get runs and wickets like he did in the practise game, can always bring him in if he keeps his place for R3 if cash is tight.

I don’t own a third keeper either, but made the decision that I’d most likely bench Gilkes in round 2 rather than pick someone purely so I get Gilkes x 2 over a potential sgw.

I want to have a bunch of gun scorchers not just for the double but the rounds and matchups following. I don’t see how that attack doesn’t take at least 8 wickets vs stars in week 3. I’ll have 4 of the big dogs - Faf, Richo, Tye, Agar and then Inglis with Hardie a potential option if price changes go my way.

Kelly or Hatzoglou for Mills now.

Not sure if Morris gets released.

Be surprised if they played all 3 of du Plessis , Eskinazi & Lyth and slide everyone down a spot (local bat to miss out 🤔)

Never a dull moment with SC

Think I read Franky Worrall's name in Grade scores somewhere , considered a OS player now , wouldn't be the worst replacement option.

Going to be short OS players for the back end of the tournament.
