Transfers

Transfers Made: 5 | Transfers Remaining: 18.

1) David Payne (BOWL) (WEL) - OUT | Jos Buttler (WK) (MAN) - IN

2) Harry Brook (BAT) (NOR) - OUT | James Vince (BAT) (SOU) - IN

3) Reece Topley (BOWL) (NOR) - OUT | Tymal Mills (BOWL) (SOU) - IN

4) Jonny Bairstow (WK) (WEL) - OUT | Paul Walter (BOWL) (MAN) - IN

5) Gus Atkinson (BOWL) (OVI) - OUT | Josh Tongue (BOWL) (MAN) - IN

With four teams eliminated from the competition and three still vying for two spots in the playoffs, it all comes down to this fixture to decide the lineup for the Eliminator. The Manchester Originals should qualify even if they lose this game, albeit by not a huge margin.

I've already taken my two NOR players out as they've been eliminated as well as one from the Oval Invincibles since they only play in M34. As for the transfers in, I'm not taking too many risks.

Jos Buttler and Paul Walter have been pretty regular picks for me whenever the Originals play and I'm going with seamer Josh Tongue as my third-option for his wicket-taking ability.

I needed to fill up a batter's slot, and I've gone with James Vince, and I'm hoping the skipper steps up and delivers in this crucial match. The ever-consistent Tymal Mills is my other transfer in.
