Wait you dropping the skipper?

In reply to anthonyp

cyah argue with that squad except maybe Forde for Shamar? Also Hope doesnt make your starting XI?

In reply to PalsofMine

Shamar ahead of Forde because I prefer some extra pace... already got got two similar players in the XI... Shep and Russell.

Who you dropping for Hope?

In reply to anthonyp

One change, Forde for Shamar and I opening the batting with Hosein instead.

The skipper stays in the hut until the spinners bowl out

In reply to natty_forever

Hope must play

Why would Chase, Motie, and Hosein play in the same XI?

Especially when you have Leiws, King, Pooran, Hope, Hetmeyer, & Rutherford in the squad?

Lewis
Hope
Pooran
Hetmeyer
Rutherford
Powell
Russell
Shepherd
Hosein
Motie
Shamar

1 Lewis
2 King
3 Pooran
4 Rutherford
5 Hetmeyer
6 Powell
7 Russell
8 Chase
9 Hosein
10 Motie
11 Ford

Just realize.

According to Darren Sammy........
Lewis
King
Pooran
Hope
Rutherford
Powell
Russell
Chase
Akeal
Motie
Forde

Sammy always pack team with batters ..
Akeal- Russell/Forde starts the bowling....
Then.. Chase - Motie... Russell/Forde ...
6th bowler...Powell & Rutherford..

I have taken into consideration...His love for Hety...

My team
Lewis
Hety
Chase
Pooran
Rutherford
Powell
Russell
Motie
Akeal
Forde
Shamar

I would never pick Russell, but since in squad...
Shepherd original no.7...

Sheppy make a miraculous recovery??

Better adjust my fantasy team

In reply to Halliwell

Well he was practicing with the squad... so I think he's fit to play

What love for Hety? Wasn't Hety one of the leading batsmen in the last CPL?

In reply to imusic

They need an extra bowling option... if he doesn't play then you going in with 5 bowlers alone. I don't consider the skipper and Sherfane bowlers.

Out of those 5 bowlers three of them are known as runs trucks.

In reply to anthonyp

King
Lewis
Pooran
Powell
Rutherford

Chase
Russell

Hosein
Motie

Shepherd
Hinds

In reply to natty_forever

Replace Hety with Powell

In reply to imusic

Because you only have 5 bowlers and Chase bowls his quota each game.
Hope sits, why are you dropping our highest ranked batsman?In reply to Baje

In reply to JamMack

A bowler short IMHO

In reply to Onionman0

Sit Hope. Try Hinds instead of Forde

In reply to Baje

I agree it may be a bowler short, but that is only if one can’t finish their quota of 4. In that case Rutherford bowls 1. In my opinion my XI has one Runs Truck (I.e. Russell), but sometimes he comes good. I do believe that pace off is the order of the day and is harder to dispatch on a wicket that offers some turn. I did not include Shepherd b/c of his recent injury, plus he would be a 2nd Runs Truck. I am sorry I did not make room for Hope. But I think it’s important to have the left handed Hety in team considering England’s wrist spin heavy attack and I do not want to break up the in form opening pair. We’ll see.

In reply to JamMack

I have no room for Hope either. Most teams have 6 bowlers because one of the 6 will get licks and you need to hide them.
It's only 20 overs, why would you need more than 5 batsmen plus 2 all-rounders, especially with a tail that is handy with the bat

In reply to anthonyp


Let’s say you right and they need the extra bowler. You going with 3 spinners?

At Kensington??

You expecting Chase to be bowling at the death?

Hosein bowls the power play overs

Motie bowls the middle overs

Where Chase bowling?

Chase is the VC so that means he most likely has to play. Can you really drop Hosein or Motie???

I guess these are good headaches for the management to have!!!
