[Thunderbolt14]

Yessir sounds good - will do that just now.

Once it gets approved we'll go forth with the warmup games.

I say we go for:

- 1 away game to the Assassins or the Tigers if we wanna try a spinner's wicket - preferably FC or OD

1 FC at the Adda on a flat wicket - any team that agrees to play with us

- 1 OD at the Adda on a flat wicket - any team that agrees to play with us

We've already played a bit of trial games on normal/spicy; really keen on seeing how flat does/doesn't play to our advantage here.

Thoughts?

We would like to play this ODI

Zabardast [MENTION=53377]jeetu[/MENTION] - looks good!

[MENTION=55088]Watsupdoc[/MENTION] if you can confirm that'd be solid.

We would like to play this ODI

Could you invite us over to your place for a ODI on a normal wicket?

 

[Watsupdoc]

[MENTION=100918]Square Drive[/MENTION] for three games let’s do this if you agree.

1) Play FC on Flat at home against Loose canons

2) Play OD on flat at home against Tigers

3) Play OD away against Tigers on normal pitch (I want to try here 2 pace (Andy and iPakistani) and 3 spin (afridi, Ashwin, Smudger)

 

[Square Drive]

Let’s do the FC game at Adda on flat, OD game at Adda on flat, and OD game on spicy vs. Loose Canons? (since their ground supports both spin and pace - so we can try playing 3 pace 2 spin attack there).

Alright - I was initially trying to get something going with Pindi Boyz/Misbah United but realized they haven't even submitted their teams yet

So yeah in that case let's go away against the Assassins and then see who's down to play us at home.

 

[Square Drive]

Also let’s play normal batting line-ups (I.e. not opening the batting with A/R or tail-ended) and we can also try opening with one diamond or 2 diamond players in one of the games as a trial?

2) Play OD on flat at home against Tigers

3) Play OD away against Tigers on normal pitch (I want to try here 2 pace (Andy and iPakistani) and 3 spin (afridi, Ashwin, Smudger)

As far as opening with diamonds is concerned - not too keen on trying that tbh because I realistically never see us using that strategy come the actual games (too much of a risk). IMO we should still try to keep our line-ups similar to what we would actually play - so if that entails opening the batting with a bowler or A/R on a spicy pitch for example, then so be it.

Regarding the games, yup - that sounds good. Would love if the Cannons can come over and play the FC on a flat Adda track [MENTION=128087]last_knight[/MENTION]

OD at the Adda on a flat track against Tigers is also a lock, as confirmed by TB above.

For the 3rd game - I want that game to happen as well and I'm down to try 3 spinners there. But does that count as one of our 3 games? Or are the Tigers inviting us?

 

[Square Drive]

Let’s play this team against the Assassins? Try how the two fast bowling A/Rs fair there.

1) Salman Butt
2) cric_craze
3) Watsupdoc
4) SD
5) Azzurri
6) kingusama92
7) The viper
8) Hadlee
9) iPakistani
10) Andy
11) Mir

I was thinking:

Butt
iPakistani
KU92
Doc
Azzurri
SD
Viper
Cric Craze
Hadlee
Andy
Mir

That's what I'd look to play against them on spicy in the regular season as well, although this will obviously be a lot weaker because we can't double boost Hadlee and can't hand a boost over to iPakistani/Mir either.

4 pacers makes sense with their swing/seam being high.

With regards to experimentation, as I mentioned in the post above I say we try and keep it closer to what we'd do in the regular season and especially stick as close to our combo as possible (albeit without boosts) in away games, as so far we only have 1 away warmup locked up anyway. Need to play our strongest/most likely line-up and see how it fares away.

 

[Square Drive]

[MENTION=55088]Watsupdoc[/MENTION] just saw - these Tigers used up all 3 of their games smh [MENTION=151892]Thunderbolt14[/MENTION] what is this behaviour??

Honestly I want to test in all of these games how opening the batting with proper batsmen work.

We already know how it works opening with a tail-ender and a A/R.

But I personally think it’s better regardless of pitch to open with proper batsmen and that’s what I would like to test in all of these games.

Ok np then - we can make that swap. I see the logic and it's something I can see us doing in the real games. Still don't think we should open with diamond bats though, as that's never happening.

So open with C_C and move Hadlee to 8, with iPakistani at 9.

Will post that now.

So if you want the ODI with the Hawks, please go ahead.

[Square Drive]

[MENTION=55088]Watsupdoc[/MENTION] for the FC at home vs the Cannons, I say:

Pitch: FLAT

Playing XI:

Salman Butt
cric_craze
Watsupdoc
Azzurri
Viper
SD
KU92
Smudger/Hadlee
Andy
Mir
King

Toss: Heads, Bat first

The only thing of debate I see there is Smudger vs Hadlee. Wouldn't wanna play a spinner on a flat Adda track, but Hadlee will also get beat around without a boost.

I say go for Smudger because of the higher skill and because it's a warmup - might as well see how bad of a phainta he gets here now.

I'm gonna sleep soon but when you see this, post that in the warmup games thread.

For the other 2 games - let's wait until a little later today to decide that (i.e. once I wake up again ). By then, I'll see how I'm feeling with regards to those dirty Tigers too

Also don't want to use all our games up until we see what the Pindi lads and Misbah XI come up with

Actually, [MENTION=23911]Moh@n[/MENTION] - because you're allowing us to play an away game to the Tigers, would you instead of the Cannons be down for this FC on a flat track at the Adda?

Our 3rd home game will probably be used as an invitation for the Cannons anyway, so instead of calling them twice we could get you all another game here which benefits both of us?

OK bro done.

Posted the line-up for the away game vs the Assassins and our first home OD (flat pitch) vs Tigers.

One MG and Mohan confirm our home FC against them on a flat track, go ahead and post the line-up in #661.

And then we'll plan out home game #3 (most likely home on a spicy pitch vs Cannons) and any other away games afterwards

 

[Square Drive]

Actually [MENTION=55088]Watsupdoc[/MENTION] from the line-up in #661, maybe we can choose to bowl first instead, considering our low deterioration. We chased 240 against Tigers on a normal track at the Adda quite easily, although we milked Mueez's offspin pretty hard there - Assassins are likely gonna go with an all-pace attack.

Do whatever you think is best - at the end of the day it is about experimentation so either is fine.

[andy0204]

I will do that my friend

Maybe you should give him some khajoors to change his mind .

 

[Watsupdoc]

Interesting to see that the A/Rs weren't that efficient with the ball (and even bat) as could be expected.

Also interesting that Ritzy (LHB) with 75 skill level was the best bat in the whole game.

He shall change it soon enough

Yes IPakistani got hit around pretty badly. Hadlee got better towards the second half of the game.

Their normal batsman performed better, but i guess our bowling was weaker.

In future games we need to separate our Diamond bats as they all followed each other in the order.

Yea same in this game having all diamond bats together didn’t really work in terms of batting.

Bowling I guess was expected with the low skills.

 

[Square Drive]

For diamond bats we can have them at 3, 5, 6 on a spich wicket next time.

No other surprises, really. Was expecting something of this sort with 2 unboosted all-rounders.

Hadlee getting the double boost is almost a certainty. Question remains whether we wanna give the 3rd boost to an A/R, a bowler, or a batsman even.

Will depend on pitch type and the opposition. But yes a double boost for at least one of ARs is certain.
