1266 and down 36 spots to 72. Only had the 4 DGW players, so was lucky the Scorchers didn't punish me too much. Think I'll hold onto Stoinis. Can trade in Carey, Lynn, Cutting without removing him with leftover cash.

Not a good night to start 2 canes bowlers. 705 with 6 scores to come. Will be some massive scores this week.

Handscomb vs SMarsh?

I'm looking at 2 scorchers bowlers and a stars bowler at this early stage. Marsh/handscomb will be tempting, but I feel bowlers are the way to go. Too much uncertainty around pure batsman who don't bowl imo.

1023 all out with 5 Gades. Happy with that. Only the 1 dgw player in Stoinis currently for next round, so looks like it could be a tough round.

Maybe the test match. Not sure why they would need a break for it though considering they play on other days.

Gurney you spud....

DC as captain not going to well. Hopefully can produce a good bowling performance.

803 with Christian (C), Boyce, Gurney and Nabi to come. Wasn't tracking too well early, but got lucky with Wade, Ingram and Short.

Well, hopefully Nabi can bat for 5-10 overs. Hasn't had this much batting opportunity this early.

Wow. Left for a few minutes and there's a collapse.

I've been going bowler over batsman. Much easier to get a respectable score.

Got Christian atm. Renegades don't really have a player that screams captain me, like other sides.

Who will you look to captain this week? Or take a chance on VC a SGW player?

I'm going to pass on Richardson I think. Despite those stats, 2/3 have been against poor batting line-ups in scorchers (early comp) and Sixers. He struggled against the stars and the strikers who both had strong batting line ups.

I'm currently weighing up taking out short, so I can get Stoinis, Richo and DC for Short and get of some non-dgw bench. Big risk, but if short fails, could gain a lot of ground up. Might be an option to cut an expensive player?

Gonna change a billion times, but looking like Stoinis, DC and Gurney for the ins. Going to pass on Richardson which could backfire.

Is handscomb in for the rest of the tournament?

Really hoping the Stars bat first tonight.

1234. Up 94 spots to 33rd.

Damn, Short and Wade out early. 7 short of 1200. Hopefully Faulkner, Archer or Meredith get a quick hit.

Last over killed faulkner's ER. Good recovery still. Might get a bat with this total. Didn't see a big score coming earlier in the innings.

Think there will be some variation due to Nabi/Watson owners/non-owners and Lynn scoring poorly. Looking through my leagues, anything about 1050-1100 (pending short scoring another monster) will be a strong score imo.

Well said. I think now a precedence is set, they must stick to it regardless of the duration of the game. If it is clearly outlined that scores count regardless of how many overs the game lasts (1 ball or more), then that is the way fantasy has decided to rule incompleted games. It may...

Wasn't addressed in the rules or T&C. Saw a few email replies stating that officially as soon as a bowl is bowled the scores count for the game, so I guess we have a precedent now and know what to expect.

Agree, either way, whether points count or not, fantasy players will be advantaged/disadvantaged. No real way to deal with it either though, from a fantasy perspective. I think it has to be clear whether they go down the count/ DNP path however.

I agree, however I think there still needs to be a ruling on when scores should count. A player could take a wicket in the first over, after which a game is washed out/cancelled with basically only 1 player scoring. Would affect price changes too much. The T&C should have addressed the issue though.

I'm thinking it was an error as the app just showed null for most of the game on my end. Can only wait and see. Hopefully it provides clarity on the situation though, but there is no good outcome from a washed out game. Some players (maybe didn't get a bat/bowl) will still be penalised if scores...

Have Edwards for Bryant and Mccullum as a poor score, so won't be hit hard. In saying that, I think as soon as a ball is bowled, scores should count. Those with Watson, shouldn't be penalised over two overs not being completed.

3/826. Nabi well and truly made up for Henriques poor score. Boyce passable score.
