what is the best strategy when picking your team.     gnr?

Don't particularly want pure batsmen who are outside the top 4 in their sides. Just to give you an idea of who this will likely be to open the tournament.

Strikers: Carey, Weatherald, Ingram, Wells
Heat: McCullum, Heazlett, Lynn, Burns
Hurricanes: Wade, ? (maybe Doolan, maybe Jewell, maybe who knows), McDermott, Bailey
Stars: Dunk, Stoinis? (could opt for Dean), Maddinson, Maxwell
Renegades: Harris, Ludeman, White, Cooper/DC
Scorchers: Klinger, Inglis?, Cartwright, Turner (assuming both Marsh's on intl. duty)
Sixers: Denly, Hughes, Henriques, ?*
Thunder: Buttler, Patterson, Watson, Root

Sixers still have a lot of squad spots to fill, as do the Hurricanes, Stars & Thunder, so there's a few asteriks & guess work in there.

Guys like Bravo (if signed) & the Scorchers AR's (& potentially Stoinis) provide great value because they both bowl & bat inside the top 4, that's what you're looking for. Guys like Denly, Ingram, Burns etc. are also known to occasionally roll the arm over from time to time.

When it comes to other bowlers, guys who bat slightly higher are handy because they can occasionally pick up the odd 15-20 score (Rashid Khan, Nair, Cutting) etc. but it's still mainly about the wickets.

After looking at the bye/DG split I'm thinking they aren't going to be as big a deal this year
The 5 game rounds really smooth the fixture out
Five of the rounds have no byes and rd 11 has 3 DG teams and only one bye team!

Looking like there’s going to be no “Official” this year, only Supercoach?
