It's ridiculous. If I was a rival team I'd try and poach him by promising a top 5 batting spot and I wouldn't regret it. Him batting behind Nielsen & Manenti, even Kelly, is bull****

Manenti has had a really good domestic season with the bat tbf, averaging 38 @ a sr of 80 in the shield and 32 @105 in the marsh cup. Rashid should have come in ahead of neilsen.

While there are definitely times (tonight being one of them) where Rashid should get a promotion in the batting order, regular top 5 is a bridge too far imo. Not consistent enough for that really

Of course. He should be coming in no later than the 14th or 15th over in most games regardless of batting order.

I'm saying I would give him a top 5 spot if it got him into my side though

Ahh I see. Fortunately he seems pretty loyal, looked like he wanted to return here to Adelaide every bit as much as the Strikers wanted to retain him


Lyth going about as well as he did in the 2015 Ashes here

These 2 teams probably have the best bowling lineups in the comp.
Strikers really shouldn't on paper, but relative no-names like Thornton and even Matt Short have been overperforming massively

and that is some of the dumbest batting I've ever seen. Imagine getting caught on the fence, to a half tracker, when they only have 2 men out
