KFC SuperCoach is a lot like batting.

Make your move at the right time and you will have the coveted top-111 in your sights.

Mistime your trades — or strategy — and you give your rivals an edge.

The Sydney Thunder team I was part of was a good example of timing your run to perfection.

Thanks to some brilliance from new Thunder skipper Usman Khawaja, we roared home in the BBL05 finals to defeat the Stars at the MCG.

In KFC SuperCoach, your timing needs to be perfect when it comes to double game weeks and international breaks.

These are factors which can catch out any KFC SuperCoach.

The double game weeks as SuperCoach’s version of the DRS.

You can miss out in game one of a round, only to jump back into contention a few days later.

The international summer is going to be huge and it’s a big plus for Australian cricket the best English side — including Ben Stokes — will be out here for The Ashes.

That of course means the Australian players won’t feature in the BBL until later in the tournament, something to keep in mind when picking your team.

I have played KFC SuperCoach for the past few seasons and am part of a very competitive league of cricketers including Callum Ferguson and Damien Fleming in SuperCoach AFL.

A bit of luck and some well-timed trades helped me finish close to the top-11, which every KFC SuperCoach strives for, a few years ago.

Now it’s about getting bragging rights in the Fox Cricket commentary box and upstaging Warney, Isa and Cal.

I’ve already got a few players in mind for my Round 1 team and the Sixers and Heat should be at the forefront of your plans for their opening-round double.
