Are trades reversible?

i had that exact same question for like 20 minutes haha.

Yes they are. Bottom right tab on tablet devices.

Reverse Trades is available - Assuming it is the same as SC in that trades can not be reversed after start of Round,  Can not find that in rules, But you can trade right through as it is rolling lock outs.

26th December vs Stars
Hobart Hurricanes
Tim PAINE (C), Dan CHRISTIAN (VC), Cameron BOYCE (DVC), George BAILEY, Stuart BROAD, Hamish KINGSTON, Dom MICHAEL, Sam RAINBIRD, Clive ROSE, Kumar SANGAKKARA, D’Arcy SHORT, Shaun TAIT, Jon WELLS
Rainbird in for Webster, the way they played it'll probably be unchanged barring injuries

[Nige]

Webster not even in the 13? Pls Canes

27th December:
Perth Scorchers:Perth Scorchers squad: Adam Voges (c), Ashton Agar, Ian Bell, Michael Klinger, Mitchell Marsh, Shaun Marsh, James Muirhead, Jhye Richardson, Ashton Turner, Andrew Tye, Cameron Valente, Sam Whiteman, David Willey.
MITCH JOHNSON, Cam Bancroft out of the squad. Expect Muirhead to play with it being at the SCG

Sydney Sixers: Moises Henriques, Sean Abbott, Sam Billings, Doug Bollinger, Johan Botha, Ben Dwarshuis, Brad Haddin, Joe Mennie, Stephen O’Keefe, Jason Roy, Jordan Silk, Will Somerville, Henry Thornton
Probably the two inclusions to the 13 man squad that will miss out, but the seamers have to be on notice after that last effort

28th December:
Brisbane Heat: Brendon McCullum (c), Samuel Badree, Nick Buchanan , Joe Burns, Ben Cutting, Jason Floros, Chris Lynn, Jimmy Peirson, Nathan Reardon, Alex Ross, Mark Steketee, Mitch Swepson, Jack Wildermuth.
Probably unchanged even though I think they don't bat deep enough, so Reardon and Buchanan miss

Johnno! :'(

In Supercoach:

Head -> Short (cash-grab + rage-trade)
Patterson -> SMarsh (upgrade + rage-trade + DGW)
Richardson -> Cutting/Tye (Allows me to bench Johnson + line up another DGW)

In Official:

Head -> SMarsh (DGW + Head not bowling atm)
Patterson -> Turner (DGW)

Now I can't work out where to use my final trade, no cover anywhere but I can field a full team and only 7.8k in the cap doesn't leave a lot of room. Already got 3 Scorchers and 2 Gades with 3 trades to come next week.

If I took Bell instead of Shaun Marsh I could get Alex Ross or Cameron White in for Weatherald and tee up the Gades/Heat next DGW? Might do that, even though it kills me to not have Shaun Marsh who is an absolute star. Other options around that price are Agar (don't want too many Scorchers), Botha (bats a bit low), Mennie (bowls pies), Rose (spud), Ferguson (not explosive enough), Kingston (bats too low).

TLDR?

S.Marsh + Weatherald + a spare trade with no clue where to use it :P
vs
I.Bell + C.White or A.Ross

There's not a lot I like in the Heat squad. McCullum, Lynn, Badree probably the front runners. How many Scorchers is too many if you went Agar? Because it's a DGW there'd be nothing wrong with carrying 5 in, although you'll unlikely get a big score from all of them this round.

Pretty valid point man, and on Ross, he does bat pretty low @ 4/5 for someone who doesn't bowl. Would be leaning toward White if I took that route.

Scorchers atm: Bell, Turner, MMarsh plus at least one more to come in next week (probably SMarsh or Willey). I spose Agar would be fine, but he also bats pretty low while being fairly unlikely to bowl 4 overs. White with 2 DGWs and 2 byes in the next 4 weeks is tempting with a lot more batting time (albeit no bowling time).

More an issue of cash than an issue of too many Scorchers on reflection.

Marcus Harris? Cheaper but more risky as he goes hard every ball.

Will Willey even be available for their DGW? The ODIs aren't far away surely he'd be on the plane to India soon.

The Botha, SOK route might not be a bad one. I started Botha and was pretty happy with his return last round.

[Nige]

Kinda flowered up by having too many Strikers/Renegades and poor choices on my bench, but I think I managed to get a half decent lineup. Was bloody hard on mobile though.

Yeah Botha does bat low but will almost always bowl 3 or 4 overs. SOK in a similar boat. I spose my aversion to them is they don't have a DWG left but still have a bye later in the season.

I think I'll go with White, he's a good player and aside from his last outing, he's in good form. Batting at 3 for the Gades, plus fielding in catching positions sells it to me I reckon.

Tell me about it, gotta do it all on lappy for it to be any good I reckon

Remember he's got the bye this round of course :)


Wright, Stoinis, Maxwell, Hussey, Quiney, Faulkner, Harper, Boland, Zampa, Hilfenhaus, Beer the probable batting lineup for the Stars. That middle order I'm not 100% sure on, might see Faulkner at 5!

Got the VC on him so lets hope so!

Oh wow the first India vs England ODI isn't until the 15th, with a tour match on the 10th. Feel pretty safe grabbing Willey for his DGW then, annoyed I didn't start with him now.
