Had VC on Maxy. Going C on Archer.

Wade on my bench

Wade on my bench

Same, on cover for Carey though so might still get counted
Loaded up with 4 Star players this round. After Handscomb, the next highest score was 9

 

[PoopingHindi]

Start Cartwright or Turner?

i'll be starting Cartwright but with absolutely zero confidence.
its hard to pick against form though and i still think Hobarts bowling is pretty weak outside of Archer.

i got cold feet on Cartwright and swapped him out at the last minute. not for Turner though unfortunately...i dont have him.
hope you made the right call.

 

[grimlock]

My tale of woe is even worse

I originally planned to play both Cartwright and turner. However then I saw Doolan and Reardon were out and they didn’t replace them with specialist bats so I thought that would give Dan Christian more batting opportunities.

Which was right but he didn’t do anything with it. And didn’t do much with the ball either.

I swapped Turner out for Christian at the last minute. Lost 45 points.

 

[Willo 17]

Travis Head and Alex Carey have been released to play against Renegades Monday night. Think white got released as well.

 

[happy_eagle]

Maxwell has redeemed himself as captain tonight, made up for KP missing.

Same. Had Coleman instead though who is also out. Maxwell won't be fielding though, Silk won't be batting
Of the 6 players I went into this match with, 2 are injured and 1 didn't get named.
Faulkner, Handscomb and Brathwaite to hopefully add to 767

 

[happy_eagle]

839 final score
After a couple of poor rounds, finally what seems like a competitive score

 

[PoopingHindi]

i've already got Bravo and Ludeman and will bring in Wildermuth and Cooper.
is there anyone else i should be considering?

Pollard may be an option but i wasnt that impressed with what i saw in his first game.

May as well bring in another Renegade. One of Hogg, Tremain or Harris.

Harris has been omitted from the squad.

 

[Aussie_boy]

Harris has been omitted from the squad.

Well there you go, interesting.

 

[PoopingHindi]

May as well bring in another Renegade. One of Hogg, Tremain or Harris.

that will mean benching either Watson, McCullum, Short, Agar, Carey, Khan or Maxwell.

benching Ludeman for either Hodge or Pollard the other option.

 

[happy_eagle]

Are the ODI players from last week still the only ones unavailable for this round ?

 

[Aussie_boy]

that will mean benching either Watson, McCullum, Short, Agar, Carey, Khan or Maxwell.

benching Ludeman for either Hodge or Pollard the other option.

Ludeman doesn't look like making runs which is why I'm surprised Harris was dropped. I'd kind of expect Hodge to open now so that's another option. I normally just bench a batsman and hope they make less than 20.

 

[toxic]

With no Finch or White there aren't many appealing Renegades specialist batsmen, I'll probably go with all rounders or bowlers.

I thought White had been released, was that a 1 off

Why has Harris been dropped?

 

[corbies]

Is Carey back in the ODI squad even though he was only replacing a sick Paine?

 

[JC Hawks]

Renegades change their squad again. Hodge out and Harris back in.

 

[PoopingHindi]

well at least that solves the dilemma of whether or not to pick Hodge.
at a guess i'd say that Carey will play. hopefully we get the Strikers squad before tonights match.

Squad will be out around 2 O’Clock today.

 

[Mitchell54]

Out: Brathwaite, Silk & Henriques
In: Cooper, Harris & Pollard

Already got Bravo

Harris could be a risky proposition given he wasn’t originally in the squad.
