Takeaways for next time
- Glenn Phillips: A premium captaincy option after 96 points; his 192 with multiplier shows ceiling.
- Sanju Samson: Keep picking—91 points built on 67 (33b) plus 1 ct makes him a safe VC play.
- Nitish Kumar Reddy: Think twice for captaincy after 2 points with 4-0-40-0; better as a punt.
