10. Steve O’Keefe
11. Nathan Ellis
– D’Arcy Short might be a good captain choice considering his batting average of above 45 at venue and H2H innings.
– James Vince looks a safe VC choice considering his current good form and batting average of above 40 at more than 5 venue and H2H innings.
– Dropped Moises Henriques as he might not go big in three consecutive innings.
– Jordan Silk has averaged above 30 at venue and H2H innings which makes him a decent punt especially if a couple of top order batters depart early.
– Taking punt on Daniel Christian who’s batting at middle order and bowling a couple of overs too.
– Expecting atleast a couple of wickets from Sandeep Lamichhane who has bowling strike rate of just 11 & 12 at venue and H2H innings respectively.
– Can take Rogers or Joel Paris at the place of Nathan Ellis especially if Hobart Hurricanes bowls in second innings.

– Matthew Wade and Josh Philippe are other C/VC choices considering their opening batting order and good numbers at venue and H2H innings.
– Can take Tim David at the place of Peter Handscomb by replacing Jordan Silk with Daniel Hughes.
– Chris Jordan will be a must pick especially if Sydney Sixers gets to bowl in first innings.
– Daniel Christian can be tried as C/VC in 10-20-339 members league especially while batting first.
