Strategy BBL|14 Round 9: Trades/XvY, strategy & other related news and VC/C poll

[Ben's Beasts]

So with Sams out for the short term? at least their double, it does open the door for a cheapie in McAndrew at 83k who is also handy with the bat.

Shoulder injury is sidelining him at the moment.

ah ok, maybe Hatcher will be an option?

Jordan vs Chaudhary

Is Lance Morris score of 98 enough to VC loop? Hopefully this is the right chat to ask

Similar question, should I loop my VC score of 4?

Clearly not for me. Everyone plays one game. There's just as much chance your C gets a single digit score as what I did with my VC. Do you want to potentially lose 98 points? What score do you expect your C to make that you would risk it.

Nice choice BTW. Happy to swap.

Thanks for the reply. I agree, there is a bigger chance that Overton goes less than 98 then he does over. If he has a game over 98 then fair play. Lance Morris was a good choice but he comes alongside Wes Agar 4 and Spencer Johnson on field as couldn’t trade out for anybody.

Owen vs Maxi?

Originally bought Owen in ti get ahead for their double, but after Dorff failed his VC, I really only have Chief or McDermott as C options. Traded Overton out.

Not sure how much Maxi will bowl. At least Owen opens, but is against the Strikers, which I feel have a better bowling line up than the Gades.

Fox reporting Bancroft out of BBL, with a fractured shoulder and nose.

I was thinking Salzmann may be an outside chance to come in as he’s back from injury now.

Bit more of a like for like with Sams but who knows they might sign someone else.

Bump! Does anyone have any thoughts re Owen vs Maxi? Who would be better to have in the side?

Tough one as Maxi came in at 6, took 4 catches and bowled nothing.

Jordan vs Chaudhary

Jordan has the role and pedigree so I’d probably take him over Chaud, particularly due to the lower breakeven as well.

Not sure how many overs Chaud would’ve got last week if Ellis played, even 1 or 2 is pretty good for the price though which he’s regularly done.

Fwiw I’m bringing both in this week.

Appreciate the response. Almost all my 50/50 decisions in the last few rounds I've fallen on the wrong side so hoping Jordan at least beats Chaudhary even if it's by a little this round.

Lol potentially have to switch to Chaudhary as O'Neill is a chance to be named now so only have a bat eligible spot left.

 

[Melmo]

Worth brining in Stoinis? Bowling 4 makes him handy but don’t know how I feel about him batting second and listed at 5. Could swap to Jordan instead.

 

[Herbie66]

Might be the round to throw a VC dart

Wes Agar 😀

Let's try Stoinis (C)

If I knew he was bowling 4 overs, I'd be more likely to recommend him. May only bowl while Webster isn't there, so probably not a long term hold.
