County Fantasy Manager 2015

[Dr Cricket]

Should be a good match with my bowlers taking wickets.

Did cf put a team in? If he did, Colly might be winning the match for him on his own

I selected CF's team using this criteria:

1. the four players he bidded on in the first round.
2. the ten players he bidded on in the othe rrounds.
3. those he was allocated in the lottery, in descending value order.

Ervine,Carbs,Rudolph,G.Jones,Rossington and Read all scored runs for me, Onions has bagged a few, Gidman and Smith still play tomorrow.

Would be surprised if I lost this round

Having just done the first innings update for Matchweek 1, it appears that there are only 8 cricketers that have played this week who are currently available for draft in the transfer window:

Carver - Yorks
Hobden - Sussex
Pinner - Leics
Pujara - Yorks
Senanayake - Worcs
Stone p- Norhants
Taylor M - Gloucs
Wells T - Leics

If the 2nd round of matches follows a similar pattern, then there will be roughly 12 unallocated cricketers from the full set of 18 counties.

With this in mind, I am tempted to postpone the suggested mini transfer window from between the opening pair of Matchweeks to between Matchweeks 2/3, and limit the transfers to one per team.

A quick glance shows it doesn't matter which order CF team is selected, he only has 9 playing.

If no runs/wickets are scored/taken by CF tomorrow, then I think Powelly needs 3 more wickets to win

I'd say leave it at between MW1 and MW2 and leave it to people as to whether they want to gamble on other players who have not yet played becoming available to play. Release as many players as you want and bid on as many as you want - presumably we are following the same allocation process as last year i.e. bottom of the table gets first player choice and top gets last choice of their first player - then it starts again for the second player etc?

My team has been annihilated.

With a principle batsman (Malan) injured and the rest unable to score, I may be the first in this game to end up with a minus score.

The bonus point system has been simplified this year:

Ian, given the 0.5 wickets for wk catches, I assume that 15-19.5 wickets is 1 bonus point: 20 - 24.5 wickets is 2 bonus points and 25 - 29.5 wickets is 3 bonus points?

Just doing the update now...

don't think any of my players had a standout performance, but Rushworth, Tomlinson, Borthwick and Compton I think did pretty well for Brendy

[hopeforthebest]

Murtagh had a run out, does that count as taking a wicket? If not why not?
