*Wicket Keepers*

Alex Carey (STR)

He is a safe pick and also the skipper of the side. He is a consistent batsman for this side and plays well in this format of the game.

Last 5 matches - 58, 55, 9, 15, 82

Joshua Phillippe (SS)

Has been looking in good touch. Was given a wrong decision in one of the previous games and can do much better out here in this game. Mainly hit or miss but still a safe option for SL teams. Can easily keep both keepers in the SL teams.

Last 5 matches - 95, 6, 22, 48, 48

*Batsmen*

Jonathan Wells (STR)

Stepped up in 2 of the previous 5 games and will be batting at 5 in this game. He was unfortunately runout in the previous game but he could be a good pick for your teams, especially if batting first, in GL teams.

Last 5 matches - 8, 36, 31, 7, 2

Jake Weatherald (STR)

Must pick and a safe choice for your teams. Is in good form and looking in good touch with the bat as well. Has been doing well for the Strikers over the years and loves the BBL. Can try dropping in GL though.

Last 5 matches - 68, 27, 1, 18, 6

Phillip Salt (STR)

Hit or miss player. Must try in GL and also a safe pick for SL teams too. He has been playing well and loves these fast paced wickets.

Last 5 matches - 6, 28, 25, 51, 4

Matthew Short (STR)

Hasn't been doing much with the ball or bat since a long time but can be a worthy try in GL if you feel that the top order would collapse early. Can avoid in your teams otherwise.

Last 5 matches - 0r 0w, 3r 0w, 12, 16, 6

Daniel Hughes (SS)

The skipper of the side in the absence of Henriques, and has been batting well and consistently been giving good points too, and is holding one end really well. He is a safe and a good pick.

Last 5 matches - 32, 46, 96, 2, 2

Jack Edwards (SS)

Hit or miss player. He opens the innings and can score well. Can try in GL as a normal player.

Last 5 matches - 1, 17, 0, 21, 10

Jordan Silk (SS)

GL pick definitely. He is a consistent player and one of the best fielders in the game too. He gets quite a few catches so even if he doesn't get to bat much, he can give points on the field.

Last 5 matches - 45, 15, 9, 31, 47

James Vince (SS)

He is a safe pick for your teams and has been giving good points in each game consistently with the bat. He is a good pick but try dropping in GL.

Last 5 matches - 17, 19, 0, 13, 17

*All Rounders*

Matt Renshaw (STR)

He is a technically sound batsman and actually is a good batter but hasn't been able to do much in this season yet. He was their star performer last season. Hit or miss player.

Last 5 matches - 2, 6, 32, 3, 19

Daniel Christian (SS)

He has showed his true worth with the bat in the previous games and has been consistently picking wickets whenever he's bowled. He is a must pick and a safe pick too.

Last 5 matches - 11r, 50r 1w, 7r 0w, 8r 2w, 6r 2w

Carlos Brathwaite (SS)

Do try in GL. Picked up more than 50 points in three of the previous 5 games and has been bowling well and on tight lengths and has been troublesome for the batsmen. He is a good try for GL.

Last 5 matches - 2w, 2w, 0w, 4r 2w, 0r 1w

*Bowlers*

Daniel Worrall (STR)

Safest pick from the bowling section. Has picked up atleast 30 points in 4 of the last 5 games in this season. He has made full use of the new ball in the powerplay. He went wicketless for the first time this season in the previous game and is a safe pick still. Looking in sublime form with the ball.

Last 5 matches - 1w, 2w, 1w, 2w, 0w

Rashid Khan (STR)

Safe 25 points guaranteed as he has been picking a wicket in every game this season.

Last 5 matches - 1w, 11r 1w, 9r 2w, 29r 2w, 8r 1w

Peter Siddle (STR)

After going wicketless in the previous game, he could do well in this game. He bowls 3 overs at the death and can easily register wickets to his name.

Last 5 matches - 5w, 0w, 2w, 2w, 0w

Wes Agar (STR)

He has been a wicket taking bowler for the side in every game and is a safe option for your teams. He is a must pick.

Last 5 matches - 2w, 2w, 1w, 2w, 2w

Danny Briggs (STR)

Can easily be avoided from SL. Worthy try in GL though. He can be a punt pick.

Last 5 matches - 35r 0w, 0w, 3w, 2w, 0w

Ben Dwarshius (SS)

He is a safe pick from the bowling section and has been a consistent wicket taking bowler for the Sixers over the years and is a good pick for your teams. Can try dropping in GL.

Last 5 matches - 4w, 0w, 1w, 0w, 24r 2w

Ben Manenti (SS)

Must try in GL teams. He can be a good bowler and can pick a wicket or two. Can even avoid as a hit or miss player.

Last 5 matches - 0w, 2w, 0w, 1w, 0w

Steve O'Keefe (SS)

He has picked atleast one wicket in each of the first four games, but went wicketless in the previous two games, irrespective of the number of overs he's bowled. He is a good choice and is a must try in GL teams.

Last 5 matches - 3w, 2w, 2w, 0w, 0w

*My Fantasy Team*

Wk - Carey, Phillippe
Bat - Hughes/Vince, Salt, Weatherald
AR - Brathwaite, Christian
Bowl - Agar, Siddle/Briggs, Rashid, Dwarshius

Options Worth Trying have been mentioned below every player individually along with their recent performances.

*Safe C/VC choices for Small League Teams*

Daniel Christian, Joshua Phillippe, Alex Carey and Rashid Khan are safe choices to be kept as C/VC and can be tried in SL teams.

*C/VC choices for Grand League Teams*

Jake Weatherald, Phillip Salt, Wes Agar, James Vince and Daniel Hughes are good prospective choices to be tried as C/VC choices in GL teams.
