Trade insights

• Bowlers rule: 6 of the top 7 scorers are listed as bowlers. If you're light on bowling, that's where your transfers should go.
• Ethan Boyd (5/47 for the 3rd XI) and Jamie Selvaraj (72 with the bat plus wickets) are in form and cheap.
• High-priced batters who haven't fired are the first to look at moving on — but check team sheets before you pull the trigger.
• Captaincy: Ejaaz Alavi has the best single round (151) and the best bowling numbers in the club.

Going it alone & the armband

• Going it alone (points from players owned by a quarter of the field or fewer): 🚀 Admin's Dream Team leads with 664, ahead of ☕ JAC (Janet Considine) on 629 and 🎯 Castles on 533.
• The armband: 🦘 Rabs legends (Robert Rayner) and 🐝 Kaboom share top spot with 162 points from their captains.
