Okay, i haven't understood how this FL works. So a few queries :

(3)What is the scoring system for batting, bowling and fielding.

Team scores will be calculated by dividing the total number of runs scored by your teams players by the total number of wickets (probably including half points for wicket-keeper dismissals) taken by your opponents, and vice versa.

The highest score of the of the 2 teams would win the match and be awarded 3 points, if the scores were level both teams would take a point each. The team with the highest number of points over the season would take the title.

Auction/Lottery

Firstly, I’ll explain the logic of the auction and player lottery. I wanted teams to get the top players by tactics, rather than just by luck. That’s why we’re doing the opening auction. Players are valued between £10,000 to £100,000, and everyone has £500,000 to spend on the players who they would like. If you want to go after the top players, that may hinder your ability to get a good squad all round. That is your choice of tactics. I suspect the £500,000 will buy most teams around 6 or 7 players.

The rest of your squad will be decided by a lottery. You will be given a budget post-auction of roughly £800,000 + anything you don’t spend in the auction. This will then decide what players you get. The more money you have for the lottery and the less players you need to buy, the better the players you will get. You have no control over the lottery beyond that though: there is a balance between spending a lot of money on the best players, and getting a team with the talented players more evenly distributed through it.

Ian - maybe I've misunderstood but that Lottery bit doesn't seem to make sense - why not continue the auction? This way, the tournament organiser will decide what players everyone has in their squad?
