Competitions 2024 IPL RDT Fantasy- RD1: Saturday 23rd March-12:30am AEST

[Herbie66]

This is what I'm running with heading into Round 2:

S. Iyer, Patidar and 230k loop to Rahman, Omarzai and Dhir,

Kohli VC for tonight's game, if Bairstow cooks or Kohli goes big I'll likely hold off on 230k loop to Dhir trade and figure something else, open to any advice as I'm not big Cricket guy

Thinking is sound , like you said just need to be react to any bench scores that need taking and make adjustments where necessary.

Big Bash Board have him down for 7 wickets (3 games) @ Chinnaswamy , ER 7.22

du Plessis has 6 50's from his last 9 Innings against Punjab , would need to look up how many of those were at Chinnaswamy.

5 of those 76+

 

[Herbie66]

Worth flagging that MI & RAJ have the Bye in Round 4.

Expect Bumrah , Hardik , Jaiswal and the 2 MI Bat/Bowl donuts are already a popular combination (obviously can trade them out if need be.

 

[Darkie]

I may actually not trade at all.

Current setup for round 2:
View attachment 70046
Of my 13 playing, the ones where I'm least confident in the role are Curran and Maxwell. Unfortunately, they both play tonight! Hardik also very much on notice but they could all completely flip this round.

There's also not hugely compelling options to move them to... at least, that play this round! Narine and Russell very much on the radar as ins but obviously no sense in pulling that trigger now.

A few options that might be worth considering?

Patidar => better cash cow
Maxwell => Green (better role last game, lower BE)
Donut => Narine (get a headstart on next round and save a trade)

 

[Darkie]

Time for an analysis I did last year. I know it's kind of hard to keep up with the games seeing as how they start at midnight for most of us - really all we can do is look at the scorecards, and maybe some highlights, to see what the roles look like.

Most of the time you're looking at players batting in the top three of their teams, or death bowlers who generally get the lion's share of the wickets. I'll also include any notable all-rounder roles, as well as rookie priced players ($350k or less).

CSK
Top 3: Gaikwad, Ravindra, Rahane
19th/20th over: Mustafizur, Deshpande
Impact Player sub: Mustafizur out, Dube in

DC
Top 3: Warner, Marsh, Hope

This is extremely helpful, thanks very much Mike.

Key targets for me on this basis: Green, Omarzai, Rahman (Fizz), and Narine next round. Also like Samson but Will slew towards cash gen early.

Maxy => Green (role, cash gen)
Bairstow => Fizz (cash gen, Bairstow unappealing looping draw vs Rahul and Pant)
Mumbai non-donut => Omarzai (fixes problem and gets a player with great potential role and cash gen).

166k cash.

Rabada was an out originally, but his stats look good so Bairstow makes way instead.

 

[Darkie]

Incidentally I would be in 20th if I had selected the right donut (or stayed awake to hedge my bets).

Shows the value of a known donut!

I would be extremely surprised if they dropped him (Mustafizur) after 4 wickets , but Pathirana has arrived in Chennai

Patidar => better cash cow
Maxwell => Green (better role last game, lower BE)
Donut => Narine (get a headstart on next round and save a trade)

Thanks, bit to think about here!

I guess the real question I'm asking here is how can I make my side better? Really the one name that's sticking out at me as a must have (this round, anyway) is Axar. I have enough bank to get straight to him from Curran but again, I'd have to make the decision tonight and that irks me.

I'm sure I could get Patidar to a better cash cow too but his value to me is much more around RCB's draw and there's nobody else within their team that would fill that role in the same way.

Remaining fixtures have been released , hopefully RDT is on the ball

😂

And their was so many cheap confirmed donuts you could have used.

True, but almost none of them are DPP, which limits their value quite a bit...

 

[Kennedy]

Ive gone Siraj > C.Green as my only trade so far. Hopefully my loops play out

CricInfo seem to think du Plessis has handed in the wrong team sheet 😲
