Good to see team win today. Not happy for not being selected in to the team....
Good to see you still active. ;)

Seriously, you're pretty close to playing on Sunday - I think we need more than one strike bowler to beat Black, loading the team with batsmen like against Green will just lead to an inevitable draw. So one of the batsmen will have to go out of the team.

As for the OD, we're full strength again, but Robbins slips down the order (wanted to try to build an innings, didn't work well). Ritchie gets a chance to shine at three. Bowling attack did a good enough job.

Eyes not spreadsheets
I can't build anything at the moment.

Dead set don't deserve a place in the team in either form of the game.

Pre-empting reaction from Dwyer: left out because we need four capable bowlers to bowl out Black - attempting to avoid the near-inevitable draw against those guys - and Reddlapalli outscored you by four times in the first innings against similar bowling.

Robbins is actually still averaging 44.2 with the bat (for comparison: my average is 41.81, Dwyer 39.08, Reddlapalli 36...), so won't drop him from FC yet.

Awesome, yep agreed we need Marc in these situations.
