Discussion BBL|12: Teams & In Game Discussion: Congrats Diabolical B2B Champion

[Chumpion]

I am having a chuckle to myself reading predictions on Kerr’s demise. I am not saying that it won’t be proven correct, however, I held him all last year and it is feeling like Groundhog Day. I remember reading week after week how he would be the one to miss out the following round, but it never happened. I guess the nay sayers will get it right eventually.

Throw enough darts at the board and you’re bound to hit it eventually, right?

 

[Darkie]

Take Wade’s 35 or roll with Inglis?

Think I will back Inglis in, looked in good form the other night.

Good batting pitch too, apparently.

Kerr is fools gold with Jordan coming back in my opinion. He bats 7 and won't bowl at the death when jordan is in. His 19th over was trash tonight and he went for 23. I'd grab him if he was $130k but i think if you grab him now he's overpriced and you've probably missed his best scores. He has made 2 nice scores batting in his last 2 games but there will be plenty of games where he doesn't bat at all or gets less than 10 balls.

And those plenty of games could occur between RD6 and the remainder of the season, if the selection is to be of a short term nature.

How many death overs since Jordan last played, has Kerr bowled comparative to his teammates and has a large proportion of his wickets come from these overs?

1/22 innings so far in BBL11 in which a side has finished their innings with six or more wickets in hand.

35 not quite enough for mine so I would roll with Inglis.

8 of the top 15 highest priced players aren't playing atm.
International duty, injuries and dropped after the first game (Bartlett & Kelly)

Depends if they land in the intended segment. A Treble 1 when aiming for Treble 20 is nothing to cheer about.

Do you have 60 darts?

A lot of people aim for the bullseye instead of the treble 20 though!

Bank the 8 points from David or roll the dice on Lyth?

Bank the 8 points. Lyth only averaging 7 SC points this season with the bat and you would be very unlucky if he can exceed that with a catch to boot.

Lyth will turn it around eventually comes over with too many years of form not to, wont get a better opportunity playing on a road at the Junction either.

Similar dilemma, except if I back in Inglis over Wade I'm also committing to Stoinis and Lynn.
What are the chances all 3 get over 35?
I have to take Inglis either way so I'll probably keep Wade's score and get a look at Stoinis, with Lynn the backup if Stoinis fails.

 

[Herbie66]

1/340

Neser , Shadab , Steketee , Swepson

Big afternoon on the Junction Road

Stoinis , Webster
Hardie , Inglis , Richardson
+ one of Tye or Zampa

Then the 3 Heat & RK19 to finish off the round

Will Boost Agar - > Connolly (or Green) tomorrow , going on a Round 4 shopping spree and the credit card could burn

 

[Herbie66]

Salt & Willey named in England's ODI Squad for South Africa.

None of the other players named have BBL contracts.

Archer named.

Joe Root has signed for the Dubai Capitals , apparently teams can extend their Squad to a maximum of 25 now.

Might be even harder getting OS replacement players here.

How many points are you willing to lose in either direction and which player do you feel has the potential to cause more hurt?

Do you own multiple Stars bowlers that will be fielded this round and is this a cause for concern for Inglis and in terms of points maximization?

Another 10-15 points from Wade would have made the decision very interesting but this is not the case and thus Inglis would be my preferred option.

1/353 Neser VC

Neser and Steketee to play one more

Will take Dooley (E) score… via Naveed who was left on field. (Had to move Sams to the bench and am forced to field Neilson via Connolly)

Got Hardie, Inglis, Short and Lynn to come on what are said to be good batting tracks (CitiPower and Gabba)… hoping Neser leaves Short and Lynn and rips thru the rest.

Also hoping Neilson gets a chance to get it going.

Licking my chops at Thornton getting to bowl at this Heat lineup (who are just god awful).

Hopefully he and Jhye can rip through a few for me.

Probably got a few too many Strikers but I reckon they are the best team in the comp (by far imo).

Dre Russ has only signed on for the first four. Livingstone was meant to replace him but withdrew and Guptill takes his place.

Thanks mate. Can strike off one name then 👍 Guptil is so hit or miss, and no much recent cricket, not sure if I need to consider him.
