10. Andrew Tye
11. Ben Dwarshius
– Mitchell Marsh looks safest captain choice considering his one down batting and 2-3 overs with the bowl.
– Taking punt on Ashton Agar as VC who’s expected to bat at 4-5 down and bowling full four overs of his quota.
– Dropped Josh Philippe who’s available in high credits and has been in hit or miss type of form so far in this season.
– Daniel Christian can come handy with bat if any of the top order batter depart early and bowl part time overs also.
– Abbott, Tye and Behrendorff are must picks considering their good numbers with bowl at venue and H2H matches.
– Can take Colin Munro by replacing Andrew Tye with Jhye Richardson especially while bowling first.
