<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Wicketkeepers</h2>



Round 6 targets



Matt Gilkes – Sydney Thunder



Sam Billings – Sydney Thunder



Gilkes could be the play here with a spot available in the Thunder top order. Keep an eye on final team lists and jump on if you need a keeper.&nbsp;



Removed:&nbsp;Cameron Bancroft



Round 7 &amp; 8 targets



Matthew Wade – Hobart Hurricanes



Ben McDermott – Hobart Hurricanes



Matty Wade is getting cheap. Unfortunately Hope departs before the Canes’ round 8 double. Perhaps this opens up a top order spot for McDermott though.



Removed: Shai Hope

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Batters and allrounders</h2>



Round 6 targets:



David Warner – Sydney Thunder



Jason Sangha – Sydney Thunder



Oliver Davies – Sydney Thunder



Sherfane Rutherford &#8211; Sydney Thunder



Will Sutherland – Melbourne Renegades



Jack Edwards – Sydney Sixers



Weather permitting, we can focus on the Thunder contingent for their double this round. Sherfane Rutherford is another candidate to bat up top for the Thunder, before he departs after round 6. I’d prefer the likes of Warner though, $$ permitting. Sangha (if available) and Davies are also options who could bowl the odd over.



Added:&nbsp;Sherfane Rutherford



Moved up:&nbsp;Thunder contingent&nbsp;

Round 7 &amp; 8 targets:



Jamie Overton &#8211; Adelaide Strikers



Matt Short – Adelaide Strikers



Cooper Connolly – Perth Scorchers



Nikhil Chaudhary &#8211; Hobart Hurricanes&nbsp;



Hayden Kerr – Sydney Sixers



Jacob Bethell &#8211; Melbourne Renegades



Michael Neser – Brisbane Heat



Mitch Owen – Hobart Hurricanes



Caleb Jewell &#8211; Hobart Hurricanes



Added:&nbsp;Jacob Bethell&nbsp;



Overton still looks essential. I’d be holding through the round 6 bye if you can. He’s expected to depart for international duties after round 8.



Matt Short will also be a must if/when he returns from injury. Cooper Connolly keeps on keeping on.



Nikhil Chaudhary looks the pick of the Hurricanes batters due to his role with the ball.



Kerr could be a play if he keeps his place when Abbott returns. If Bethell continues bowling he could be another allrounder to consider.



Wait and watch on Neser for a game or two to check he’s bowling his full allotment.



Mitch Owen is an option for the round 8 double. He could also be joined at the top of the order by Caleb Jewell, who is currently priced at just $64k.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bowlers</h2>



Round 6 targets



Chris Green – Sydney Thunder



Lockie Ferguson – Sydney Thunder



Wes Agar – Sydney Thunder



Tom Andrews – Sydney Thunder



Moved up:&nbsp;Thunder contingent (and Ferguson moved above Agar)



I’d purely focus on Thunder bowlers for their round 6 double. If you don’t already own Agar, I’d firstly prioritise Green and Ferguson.

Round 7 &amp; 8 targets



Jhye Richardson – Perth Scorchers



Ben Dwarshuis – Sydney Sixers



Sean Abbott – Sydney Sixers



Jason Behrendorff – Perth Scorchers



Xavier Bartlett – Brisbane Heat



Lance Morris &#8211; Perth Scorchers



Nathan Ellis – Hobart Hurricanes



Chris Jordan – Hobart Hurricanes



Riley Meredith – Hobart Hurricanes



Billy Stanlake – Hobart Hurricanes



Added:&nbsp;Lance Morris



No changes here except for the addition of Lance Morris. Well done if you followed Maxy Bryden and jumped on him. If not, he still looks a good late season POD.
