Oh yeah i forget to ask earlier...will the games be test matches or 1 dayers or both? Also is there a pitch function, some pitch's will spin whilst others are fast?

there are 1 dayers and multiple day matches. It will probably be too hard to keep up with the action if i do both - it will mean i have to change player average in two programs, add up the statistics from two programs etc,. so i will just stick with one form - probably the one dayers as they it only takes 15 minutes to play a onedayer, compared to about an hour for multiple day matches.

There is a pitch function - its only good, normal, bad or random. i will just use random for each match. Also, each team gets a home ground they can use - whether it be the MCG, or SCG, or a made up ground.

Well does that mean that the information on those pitch's is loaded into the program? The home grounds would be MCG, SCG, Gabba, WACA, Adelaide Oval

. All those ovals have different types of wickets (real life) but judging on how you want to play the game they could turn out to be anything?!

i wanna be with vic dont forget

Ok i have more suggestions, first is to do with your highest batting averages regarding wicketkeepers and allrounders. I think they should both be increased, especially the wicket keepers because basically, wicket keepers have to be able to bat these days (Gilchrist, Samuels, Pom Captain, flower etc) and most of them are good batsmen. A hightest possible average for a wicket keeper of about 36 would be about right. Could allrounders batting averages be increased by a bit also, say 1 or 2 runs?

Second suggestion, the games are going to be 1 dayers so i presume that there will be 5 or 6 bowlers who bowl out the 50 overs. I agree that the pitch should be random but shouldnt the type of pitch be determined before the game so you can choose which bowlers you want to play?

Third suggestion, could team lists be increased to 13 players...this would be so that an extra bowler could be added for a bit of flexibility regarding pitch conditions and teams could play another spin bowler eg 13 man and drop a fast bowler. Anyway i think you get the gist of what im saying.

Cheers Vis

I would also like to change my cricket profile from a right handed allrounder to a left handed pure batsman. I dont mind what type of bowler you make me because i wont be bowling.

WCE2000, thanks for your email, here are my details, hope to get in the squad

BUBBALOUIS
VIC
ALL ROUNDER
RIGHT HANDER
RIGHT ARM MEDIUM

Thanks

 

[WCE2000]

I think we might only get enough for 4 teams: Victoria, South Australia, Western Australia, Queensland/NSW, so i will combine the Queensland/NSW teams

Wally:
The Victorian Squad has 2 keepers, and seen as though Warrior filled his form in before you i have given him the spot.

However, i will give you the option of going into the Western Australia squad or the NSW/Queensland squad as a keeper.

**ahem**

 

[Visro]

Wally you would be a good pickup for the WA team. We don't have a keeper yet whereas the NSA/QLD team allready has in Darky.

Anyway go where you like mate

Sorry, you've got the choice to go to WA or SA. Not Qld/NSW. Sorry Darky, i was looking at the wrong squad.
