one more round before the BBL starts

all to play for at the top

really volatile everywhere else

doesn't look as though too many points will be garnered from the match at the MCG

as well as the Mzansi, the Shield has had its share of problems this week.... one caused by climate change (or not caused by climate change according to Pres the D) and the other caused by the franchising out of the boxing day test pitch preparation to the Somerset groundkeeping team

Looks like you're really best going with a team of old timers.

it has ever been thus. A younger player showing good form risks being called up into the international team or some sort of development team which then means they miss chunks of the domestic season. Bad enough in a large pool like the 18 team county championship, but even more pronounced in a small pool like the 6 team Shield. Only the fogeys who have been there, done that, and been tossed away by CA represent decent value to the discerning fantasy leaguer

Resumption for the Shield
