Playing 7 risks ****ing the balance. But say you do that, if you have the 8th, then he is shit automatically shit?
Taking what I said out of context. The 8th best batsman wouldn't struggle to make the Vipers. No decent bat would struggle to make the Vipers.
Even if you think that, Bedsey isn't, and there's no way I'd want to go into a BS game with seven batsmen (Speirs or no Speirs) followed by a keeper at 8 and three bowlers. After the six best batsmen in CricSim have batted and racked up 400+ every game, it's much more likely you're going to need a fourth bowler than yet another batsman.
What's the Gamblers batting lineup? I reckon only 4 would make the Vipers team, and i'd crack your firsts team.
I could keep, or you could have the pitch 10,10,10. Davis Armstrong Manera Gemmell Read O'Driscoll Popovic You wouldn't make our side.
That would be stupid though. Playing another bowler would make much more sense, as the top five would probably rack up a huge score between them every round anyway.
Well Popovic couldn't crack Firsts ahead of me at the Vipers, so there's one. And if you played Popovic, i'd make it over Benny.
Luffman wouldn't hold 3. He would shift to 4 most likely. Don't you listen to Ged? You need an awesome batsman at 8 no matter how good your top order is.
Benny has more potential with the bat and his spinners will be needed with our pitch and the possible dropping of Hallett. Read > Delonge Popovic is our 3rd seamer. Popovic > Delonge.
No he wouldn't. If you could take our best 4; Davis Armstrong Manera Luffman Gemmell If Luffers is a middle order bat, we would swap.
