Sounds like a good idea, I have joined.

Rules:

If your selected tip gets up and wins - 4 points.
If your selected tip was a draw, and the match is a draw - 8 points.
If you do not get your tip correct - 0 points.

The option below, which says innings total - You must correctly guess both teams score range to earn your an extra (bonus) point.

A possible 9 points is up for grabs for each match. However, is there anyone crazy enough to tip for a draw?

What is a draw in one-day cricket?

A draw can be 2 things...

1. Both teams end up on the same score after they've faced their overs... a tie.
2. Bad weather prevents the game being completed where both teams face a minimum of 25 overs... a no result.

So you're using it as an umbrella term. Rightio.

It's letting me submit score predictions but not tip winners.
For today's game, I'm tipping Australia 201-250 and England 151-200 - but it's not letting me tip Australia.
For Tuesday's game, I've tipped both teams to get in the 201-250 range. I want to tip England to win, but I don't seem to be allowed to select winners.

That doesn’t matter.
It happens to everyone who tips in oztips Cricket.
It will still calculate your score, mate.
Don’t worry too much about it. Just don’t forget to save your tips.
