PP Cricket League is a simulation cricket game.

A widespread Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is what I fear in context of Covid-19 Pandemic. Recommended strategies suggest keeping yourself involved in other activities as well. I was thinking about a PP Cricket League.

It will need active participation of 50-60 members.
 
I am up for it, also if you can add some links of previous leagues you guys did here, that would be great.

It is very easy there will be a dedicated game section where you can sign up for the league once it is announced that it will take place.

You can signup for example

Name: Babu Bhaiya

Role: Right Hand Batsman/Bowler/AR whatever you like

Bowling: Off Spin/Fast/Medium Fast whatever you like

For matches there will be threads and someone from the admin will post the commentary after copying it from the simulator which he will run on his computer..!!

Thanks for explaining 👍🏻

So after signing up, nothing much to do on my part. Still the commentary thread sounds fun.

When you understand how this works you can always share your input to your team captain. Its more fun if you are active participant in planning and banter (within limits though).

Sample commentary was provided by [MENTION=53377]jeetu[/MENTION]

Before the matches start, there is also a Draft where Captains/VC and co pick the players who sign in as Bowlers/Bat/WK/AR of all types. Depending upon type of the pitch for every match, team can decide which players get Platinum/Diamond/Gold categories.

But this is fun only if all players are actively involved in banter and inputs.
 
I’m in too. Left-hand swing/seam specialist. 6’5” with 142kph average speed. Absolutely horrible with the bat.
 
Lot of fun in these - so lets get more sign ups
 
I’m in.

Wicket-keeper batsman.

Lightning quick with the gloves, but an average middle-order batsman. :rizwan
 
Name: Shafkath

Role: Fiery fast bowler, 150kph, throw my toys out of the pram if I don't get the New ball. Can swing the willow if you annoy me enough. Don't ask me to do fielding drills in practice, not interested.
 
If anyone is interested in being organizer of PPCL. Please let us know. It would broadly involve planning (like how many matches and what type of matches should take place and much more) . Also includes posting Match commentaries. [MENTION=93712]MenInG[/MENTION] will guide us on detail role of being PPCL organizer.
 
Just to refresh . In past we use to broadly classify players by role they chose and give then skill points based on it.

For example a typical average rating would be

[table=width: 500, class: grid, align: center]
[tr][td]Role [/td][td]BatSkill(95) [/td][td]BowlSkill(95) [/td][/tr]
[tr][td]Bowler [/td][td]30 [/td][td]75 [/td][/tr]
[tr][td]Bowl AR [/td][td]55 [/td][td]65 [/td][/tr]
[tr][td]Pure AR [/td][td]60 [/td][td]60 [/td][/tr]
[tr][td]Bat AR [/td][td]65 [/td][td]55 [/td][/tr]
[tr][td]Batsman [/td][td]75 [/td][td]0 [/td][/tr]
[tr][td]WK [/td][td]75 [/td][td]0 [/td][/tr]
[/table]

However captain use to assign extra points to some players.
This means a batsman/bowler could get even get to 95 rating giving that player higher chances to scoring runs/getting wickets.

imo, proper batsman and bowler should get 80-85 skill points
 
Can we have some other volunteers who can help with this?
