Imagine it would be :-
Short
Short
Lynn
Weatherald
Overton
Allen
Nielsen (until Pope arrives , then Pope @ 4)
Thornton
Boyce
Pope
Doggett (if available)
Buckingham (if fit) in the mix for Doggett/Pope
Bazley , Kelly , Ross to miss out
LRP's tba for Carey & Head at least
Liam Scott been mentioned as one possibility
Practice match v Thunder tomorrow hopefully gives some indication

Agree , think they have the wrong set-up structure , but if the Top 3 perform they might not need to many others to bat.
Must have got Ross for a reason.
They seem bullish on Boyce & Pope again , so would they just rely on Overton and Thornton for pace and play CSK spin to win theory ?
I am sure D Short will get overs along the way as well.
Allen could be extremely interesting could get 30-40 points from Fielding alone before he even bats or bowls.

My head is going around and around like a washing machine , might be easier just to pick a auto-fill side before Sunday night's game 😀
Will have 4 Renegades , now down to 2 Stars.
I really need to decide on how many (and which) Scorchers/Strikers players I want in Round 2 then work backwards.
Hopefully get a few answers to some things today and no more curve balls
Good luck

Have you seen anything from Kade Harvey suggesting Inglis might open (if available) ?
Although with Hardie now out they might need to leave him @ 4.
Is :-
Allen
Fanning or Hurst
Jennings
Inglis
Hobson (Turner)
Connolly
Spoors (Agar)
+ the 4 Quicks
Read awhile ago they were looking at Bryce Jackson as the LRP for Marsh , maybe with the injuries they go someone like Whiteman instead

Hmmm, I've been so burnt with Stars players in the past that it's clouding my thoughts big time.............apart from 'Maxi'............and he's now hit and miss mostly.................the rest just don't get me.
As for the 'Ren's' too...............their starting prices speak for themselves too................when you just look at projections for Rd 1 for them, they're mostly dismal imh.
Maybe 'Seifert/Khan' are worth including........L Evans too but bat only....
...Brown and JFM are more miss than hit and bat only too of late............too risky for mine.............Tommy Rogers also cheap for a reason............been average...............Will Sutherland, (hope he watched his sis last night).........has issues............too risky................I'm finding it very hard to get enthusiastic about the DGR teams in Rd 1.
And then you look at the Strikers and Scorchers.................hmmm..............some nice projections there...............that 'Diabolical' average looks achievable with them as a comp starter ..............if you can fathom the RD 1 double misses.
Anyway, enough raving from me.................cheers mate

Extremely interesting that he mentioned Duckett would bat 3 or 4 once available.
Assumed he would be opening , looking at Big Bash Board he has only opened 39 times out of 186 Innings.
12 x T20I and opened once back in 2019.
So what is the Stars opening partnership this season ?
Amazing to think a few years ago they had Cartwright and Stoinis together who were reasonably successful.

Welcome aboard!
@Tails is our pricing guru, and may be able to confirm how many dollars per point that prices move by.
Scoring in BBL is way more volatile (batsmen will often score <10, buy can also score 100+). I think that the scoring volatility is probably a more important factor than differences in the pricing formula per se, if that makes sense.
Ultimately the ability to buy low/sell high is much greater than in AFL, because of the scoring volatility, and the extra trades.
BBL is way more about playing the fixture (getting your head around double game rounds etc) than about upgrading your team to get to full premo etc.
