This is also called simulated cricket.

Skill set of players is entered in sim which then generates a cricket match with ball by ball commentary, posted at match threads in spells of 5/10 overs.

Players are expected to Post in match threads on Match days. It is irrelevant if one is a cricketer or not in real life.

last_knight · Mar 7, 2018

We have little over a day to announce playing XI for first match.

Let's wait for KK selection of pitch type and variation.

Smiling Creed · Mar 8, 2018

It's a normal pitch.......Hold our spinners.

Smiling Creed said:

High bounce and good swing and average seam and LOW SPIN.

Should we play 2 spinners ? Or a 4 man pace attack ?

Spicy or above means bowling friendly ?
Does it mean bowler friendly for Fast bowlers or it favours spinners as well depending upon pitch type ?

Spicy or above at IU home grounds will favour spinners more. Is it ?

last_knight · Mar 10, 2018

Well played everyone against KK. It was a close match we lost but not without a fight.

last_knight · Mar 10, 2018

We now host QG.
QG will play either Miller or Warner.
[MENTION=135839]Smbhayi[/MENTION] [MENTION=129922]Smiling Creed[/MENTION] , I'm thinking of a spicy pitch. And replacing Sehwag and [MENTION=143363]Hedz[/MENTION] with Shadab and Farhan.

Your thoughts ?

demote Shadab Khan. only 55 batting skill. Shadab at 7 and Gul at 8. others good. Good aggression without much batting skill isn't good enough.

They prefer chasing ?
Or you mean we should chase if we win toss?

last_knight · Mar 19, 2018

I think one should bowl first only if it's Spicey or beyond, regardless of opposition or pitch.
I want to bat first against MS.
Your suggestion [MENTION=135839]Smbhayi[/MENTION] ?

Your suggestion [MENTION=135839]Smbhayi[/MENTION] ?

go with your gut feeling..

btw I'm exact opposite though. on a normal pitch it's hard to defend while on bowling friendly pitches it's hard to chase.

last_knight · Mar 19, 2018

Alright then. We chase if we win toss. But [MENTION=1906]hailian[/MENTION] opens and Farhan bats at 6.
