County Fantasy Manager 2016

Think I'm going to have the same problem as last week. With Robson, Bairstow and Plunkett I've got plenty of runs, but I'm not getting any wickets!

With that 600 runs, you only need one

Think about others less fortunate than you!!!

I had 600+ runs last time and lost! Maybe need to rethink my selections.

[Dr Cricket]

My game looks interesting, the other guy got loads of bowlers playing but I will more likely score more runs which should make it close.

Ian anyway if possible that we can get scores inplay from the spreadsheet.

At the minute it's as much as I can hope for the "borrowed" data to be right at the conclusion of the games, yet alone during them

600 runs with 5 wickets gives the same performance score as 200 runs and 15 wickets.

400 runs and 10 wickets produces 33% more...

There is a balance to be had

ah ok thanks had a feeling the "borrowed" data will be a problem.
hopefully you can find a decent site to get data from.

That is interesting didn't really think Run scoring was a huge advantage.
was actually going to suggest changing wickets to be worth 0.75 next year, but looks like the game scoring doesn't need changing.
Intresting think I have scored 269 runs and 5 wicket so far, the guy I faced as mostly bowlers hopefully I score enough to win the game.

[Red Devil]

seems to be going a bit better this week now that I actually have more than 6 players on the pitch! despite Cosgrove and Brown both getting ducks

was lucky I faced you last week, while you were struggling to pick a team.

[Durhamfootman]

my Brown got a duck as well

Ian has started to steadily take wickets now so it doesn't matter much how many runs I score, I can't take the wickets to go with them.

Not that it matters, much.... as soon as I saw which teams weren't playing this week, and then saw how little wicket taking potential I had once the England boys had turfed all my bowlers out, I'd written this one off

Ian's two boys off the bench seem to be his biggest contributors atm. Sometimes that's the way these things work out

[ianp1970]

Last year my team selections were spot on, I very rarely left out higher scoring players than those in my XI. My squad this year however, could take more juggling depending on how the fixtures fall...

It would appear that fortune has favoured me in this Matchweek, but there's still a long way to go... I'll offset this one against being beaten by an un-managed Eagles side against my 7or8 man team last year!

[durham_andy]

Blimey I've got lucky this week! Robson, Bairstow, Plunkett and Vince: 722 first innings runs between them!

[sussexpob]

The delight of seeing you have got a wicket, only to realise its of the opening batsman of your team

[hopeforthebest]

Powelly didn't bother to pick a team this week and left out two wicket taking players and a century scoring batsman but he still is favourite to beat my 9 man team. It is close though and I could pull through if Clarke and Barker take more wickets.

Just my luck! I get a 1st innings 100s from Nash and Ervine, and yet I run into this.

Not much you can do when you run into that bazooka of a team this week....
