Hi all,

Playing a superior team, away.

Pitch is Flat but weather is Humid

opposition has issues with fitness which will bring humid into play but usually blast the opposition away within 20 overs or so

Was thinking of mixing it up but keep majority of bowling with mediums due to humid conditions.............I have decent Fx1, FMx1, RWSx1, RFSx1 and 3 M

Any advice?

I know I'm far from a newbie. But I have a challenging call to make for my Div 2 SOD game tomorrow.

I forgot to set my pitch to Dry/Crumbling due to opponent having 0 spinners so have gone to Sticky and weather is currently Hot. Options are below in order of preference. All are rested unless noted with 1 update to come. Also, the RM with Capable batting is the only one with a current bowl summary of Outstanding (rest are Spectacular).

RFM
RFM (Revived)
RFS (Accomplished batting and Revived)

RFS (Reliable batting and BH)
RWS
RM (Capable batting scored 85 last week)

That was my 1st thought. I had an idea of replacing the WS with the Med bowler to increase batting depth to No.9 to help a batting lineup that currently has a Satisfied and Passable in the order.
