Cricket-Match-Special ... A forum for discussion

Although many of us are engrossed in the WT20 FL, and some of us still have an interest in the Sheffield Shield FL, it is nevertheless time to start thinking about our fantasy league teams for the coming county championship

As usual, pick 11 players, no substitutes are permitted, and there are no restrictions on who you can pick

Scoring

Batting

1 point per run
+10 for a half century
+20 for a century (+10 for any additional half century)
If a batsman is not out after 50 = +10, after 100 = +15, after 200 = +25 etc....

Bowling

20 points per wicket
2 points per maiden over
+10 for 5 wickets in the match
+20 for 5 wickets in an innings
+30 for 10 wickets in the match
+50 for 10 wickets in an innings
+30 for a hat trick, + 10 for two in a row.

Fielding

10 points per catch or stumping
20 points per run out, or 10 points each if two players share the responsibility
10 bonus points for 3 contributions with catches, stumpings or run outs


Squads

Cr@pinfo is it's usual rubbishy self and even some of the county websites still show last years squads, despite the county season being a mere 19 days away. I shall endeavour to put squad lists up when they become a little more reliable


AP is the man to beat... entries must be in before the toss on Sunday 10th April, and may the best footman win![/quote]
