Re: Fantasy Cricket for World Cup 2015
Simplest will be
(Wickets * 20) + (balls bowled - runs given)
[the current method gives same weight to economy rate of (say) 4 no matter 1 over or 10 overs bowled by the bowler]
or we could contact Messers Duckworth and Lewis for further insight.
Re: Fantasy Cricket for World Cup 2015
at least your trump scored some.
My trump didn’t even show up to play last game 
Re: Fantasy Cricket for World Cup 2015
That is a huge round off error. Has an error propagation analysis been done?
Re: Fantasy Cricket for World Cup 2015
same case just on the last moment 
Re: Fantasy Cricket for World Cup 2015
Go with your first instinct.
Except when it makes sense to not do so
Re: Fantasy Cricket for World Cup 2015
Windies 151 all out

Re: Fantasy Cricket for World Cup 2015
After the Gayle disaster I am recovering. Back to 4th position.
Re: Fantasy Cricket for World Cup 2015
I played a calculated Gamble by making Gayle my trump in last game v/s Zim and it totally worked..
Played another gamble yesterday by removing Gayle from my final X1 and bingo!!!

Re: Fantasy Cricket for World Cup 2015

Re: Fantasy Cricket for World Cup 2015
@smooth_guy time for celebrations. For the firs time during this WC you moved from 47th to 46th position

Re: Fantasy Cricket for World Cup 2015
That makes perfect sense except that my equation would be: (wickets x25) + (balls bowled - runs given) to reward both 100 runs scored by a batsman and 4 wickets taken by a bowler EQUALLY. see below
Re: Fantasy Cricket for World Cup 2015
The most 4+ wicket hauls in an innings in a career is Waqar Younis’s 27, followed by Murali’s 25
Records | One-Day Internationals | Bowling records | Most five-wickets-in-an-innings in a career | ESPN Cricinfo
Most hundreds in a career is Sachin’s 49 followed by Ponting’s 30. Most 50s in a career is Sachin’s 96 followed by Sanga’s 93
http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/records/282935.html
**just proves that 4 wicket hauls are still less common than ODI hundreds **
and current system gives the same bonus points for both 4 wickets and 50 runs!!
Re: Fantasy Cricket for World Cup 2015
I agree. Lets fix it in our next FC. For consolation I guess I can just say that point system is same for all USERS

Re: Fantasy Cricket for World Cup 2015
Of course.
No bowlers feature in top ten of points scored (I think. Correct me if I’m wrong) so far in the tournament. That alone should tell you that ICC, BCCI and Gupshup favor batsmen much more than bowlers.
