Balanced Averages Budget draft

honestbharani

Whatever it takes!!!
hb, do you have a plan to come in on budget ? when I plug some numbers into my spreadsheet I can't get them to work.
I have not actually kept track but let me see if I can get at least my numbers straightened out for now. I am at work, so may not have time till another 2 hours to work out everyone's.

But your wicketkeeper won't affect the rating and you'll still be in the negatives. Instead of Irfan you need someone with a high bowling average and a high WPM (someone like Jason Kreyza).

My calc says -14. But I don't have time to double check at the moment

For R11, I will copy the R2 order (ie reverse R1 order since that offers the biggest advantage).
If I can work out who needs a batsman and who needs a bowler I will split them into 2 orders to run in parallel to reduce waiting.

Some, like me, are only after a wicketkeeper who isn't going to count as a batsman.

Off spinners are scum. Will finish with 9 centurions babeh. Looks weird but my top 7 all make the side as batsmen anyway.
