T20 Blast fantasy league 2019

[Arthur Crabtree]

My campaign is melting like a Mars Bar in a tropical heatwave.

I think Doctor was joking...

[Durhamfootman]

Ive been steadily rising up these ranks like a well proofed loaf.

careful......too much and you might collapse back in on yourself

[st_brendy]

part of me thinks that Gregory will be ditched for the ashes squad and sent back to Somerset with a point to prove

that's a gamble, of course

I can't make my mind up

Oh I'm almost certain that he won't play a part in the Ashes. They've named too many seamers in the squad as it is, and that's without Archer and Stokes (and Wood, if he is fit later in the summer).

But just between tomorrow and the day after the Ireland test match finishes, Somerset play 4 times. That's more than 25% of their group games.

I allowed myself to get talked out of this one. Somerset have today played their 4th match and Gregory has played in 3 of them

Given the lack of batters named in the squad for the Ireland test (and the fact that naming two spinners was somewhat unnecessary), I was very surprised that Gregory didn't make his debut.

I'll be interested to see at the end whether I'm better or worse off for dropping him for Banton.

[Durhamfootman]

I stuck to my guns with Bancroft and look where that got me

another day, another 'how few overs can we get away with without having to give dripping wet fans their money back' piece of nonsense

brendy slides, after committing the cardinal error of omitting Lord D'Arcy from his team

[Durhamfootman]

Just realised that I am cemented into the treacle toffee spot

damn these unreliable teeth!

[Arthur Crabtree]

I'm sinking in your direction.

[Durhamfootman]

good... I daren't eat the treacle toffee
