Captain and vice-captain picks

Who to make captain and vice-captain, and why

CaptainCharli Knott BHExpected 42 points, so about 85 as captain (2×)Top scorer of this XI in 19% of 4,000 simulated matchesTop scorer of the match in 6 of 51 T20s (0 of 29 in the WBBL)
Vice-captainOrla Prendergast BHExpected 37 points, so about 55 as vice-captain (1.5×)In the XI's top two in 35% of 4,000 simulated matchesSecond-top scorer of the match in 9 of 55 T20s (0 of 9 in the WBBL)
  • The captain earns double and the vice-captain one and a half times their points, so these two picks swing a fantasy team more than any other. Put your two highest expected scorers there.
  • When expected points are close, prefer the player who tops the scoring more often (the simulated share and the record below), or pick the other one as a differential that fewer teams will have.
  • All-rounders and top-order batters are steadier picks: they can score with the bat, the ball and in the field.

  • Top scorer / top two: how often the player scores the most (or is in the top two) in this XI, over 4,000 simulated matches.
  • Best C / VC: how often the player was the match's top (or second-top) fantasy scorer, across both teams, in their T20s of the last three years; not how many people picked them. How we calculate this
