run outs?

Thought about it, but decided against due to vagaries regarding who actually gets the credit.

Will see how it goes without in this tournament - I'll try to calculate in the background - then move on from there...

fair enough

Afghanistan - M. Shahzad
Australia - D Warner
Bangladesh - M. Rahim
England - J. Buttler
India - MS Dhoni
New Zealand K. Williamson
Pakistan - S.Ahmed
South Africa Q. De Kock
Sri Lanka - T. Perera
West Indies - S. Hope

Afghanistan- Rashid
Australia- Cummins
Bangladesh- Shakib
England- Woakes
India- Kuldeep
New Zealand- de Grandhomme
Pakistan- Imad Wasim
South Africa- Morris
Sri Lanka- Mathews
West Indies- Holder

Probably provisional.

also provisional

Nabi (Afg)
Warner (Aus)
Tamim (Ban)
Roy (Eng)
Dhoni (Ind)
Boult (NZ)
Babar (Pak)
de Kock (SA)
Thisara (SL)
Hope (WI)

good luck, Ian

England- Buttler
WI- Jason Holder
NZ- MJ Santner
AFG-Rashid Khan
Ban Shakib al Hasan
Ind Hardik pandya
SA Quinton De kock
pak Babar Azam
Sri Kusal Mendis
Australia David Warner

Pretty set on five of my team - the other half is in constant flux...

Wait and see what Red does?

This probably warrants a bit of research.

Tricky one. I'm going back and forth on whether to go all in on the same players as the other comp, or spread out a bit so that if I do badly in one, hopefully I'll do better in the other...

Also, because of the format (runs x wickets), you need a balance of batsmen and bowlers, but the tendency is to think that this is going to be a batsman's tournament - not many squads have a bowler that you'd expect to outperform their top batsman...

Tentatively:

Afg: Rashid Khan
Aus: Cummins
Ban: Shakib
Eng: Roy
Ind: Kohli
NZ: Southee
Pak: Babar Azam
SA: Steyn
SL: Matthews
WI: Gayle
