Anybody else like me and seemingly ignored Wes Agar for the whole season...and watching this now cant quite figure out why?
Yep, been thinking about getting him in all season, backed out this week because the Strikers bowlers got pumped last week and looked a shadow of themselves without Rashid Khan...

Amazing what defending 200 will do to you!

Yeah he wasn't someone I even thought about stashing on the bench in round 1 during the bye (cycled through most of the strikers bowlers, but not him).

Not when you're chasing 197
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.
