Running with the E on all my Sixers players.
Have gone Walter > Agar so far
Have also traded J Davies to Chaudhary as a placeholder for now. Assuming none of my loops go off, third trade will need to be Curran to Jordan/Stoinis. Chaudhary could also be updated to whoever I don't select out of Jordan/Stoinis initially. Could get another Thunder player, but not overly keen on any of them outside of Ferguson, but would prefer to wait for a price drop. Hurricane players will make some money at the least.

Was going to keep O'Neill, and hope for a form reversal against the easy Stars batting line up.
So that idea got flushed!
Wanted to keep Johnson, but didn't want 2 bowlers in tonights rain affected game, so kept Dwarshuis instead.
Only Philippe and Dwarshuis in this game, both E'd.
Will VC Stoinis
If he's a C score, will trade Overton to Jordan.
If Stoinis is no good, C on Overton, trade D Short to Jordan.

Have Dwarshuis, Philippe & Johnson from the first game.
Add to that O'Neill, Curran, Doran & Scott means I'm down to a max of 10 players left to field (prior to trades).
Had planned to keep Dwarshuis as he has a good remaining draw (Heat, Stars, Scorchers, Strikers & Thunder) but he drew the short straw with Johnson. Philippe & Johnson with the E so will see i) if we get a game ii) their scores before deciding on who to trade in.
Luckily I still have a boost in hand if more curve balls are thrown but hoping not to have to use it just yet.

Just a reminder for those who've already used up all three of their E's on Heat/Sixers players (I'm sure someone will ask the question eventually).
Now that the game has been officially abandoned, if you do decide to take a VC score from one of the next 2 games, then you're effectively forgoing the 12th scorer for the round!
Essentially, playing 11 scorers rather than the normal 'best 11 from 12' scorers for the round.
