With the overseas draft now finished, we move on to the main bit of the Pepsi Cup preamble.
Home Grounds and Games
In the list of venues, you can find all grounds approved by the PCB to host Pepsi Cup matches. Please choose your home grounds, their pitch types and which team plays where. You can also ask to host matches in grounds that are not on that list, but you'll have to seek approval first from the Pakistan Cricket Board first.
Grounds
Please shortlist your venues to host your home matches. You must select grounds of National T20 teams, and allocate one match at least.
Please also select the pitch types for each of your grounds you shortlist. All available pitch types are also listed in the venues post.
Rain/Snow
Simming a league can get very monotonous very quick, so to spice things up, I've stolen @Aislabie's rain system to use in this league.
Climate for grounds that must be used is what it is, but for ones you may shortlist aside from them, you can check their climate with me.
I've decided this league takes place in Dec/Jan, so the climate conditions for those months will be taken into account for the fixtures.
Pitch Types
Please confirm pitch types for each venue you shortlist. Keep in mind that you'll be assigning your home fixtures, so be smart about it.
Home Games
Since the league is played in a single round-robin format, the fixtures are so that five teams play five home games and five teams play four games. This does not alternate each year, but instead, teams that finish in the top-five at the end of the season get to host five home games (one home game extra) the following year. For the first season, the PCB awarded Karachi, Lahore, Multan, Peshawar and Rawalpindi those five games as five of the six teams to have a Pakistan Super League franchise.
Please assign each of your home games a venue you've already selected and assigned a pitch type to.
And, *FINALLY*, of all your home grounds, choose one which will host playoff games should you get to host them.

Pitch Types
Damp/Sticky - Massively in favor of bowlers and an absolute nightmare to bat on, unless you're Victor Trumper.
Dusty - Plenty of turn on offer for spinners and a good place to bat for spin-savvy batsmen. Good pace bowlers are still likely to thrive.
Even - Provides an evenly balanced contest for all disciplines.
Flat - A batsman-friendly pitch which provides little or no assistance to bowlers. Expect big totals.
Green - A lot of movement on offer early on, making it ideal for fast bowlers. Batting expected to become easier as the match progresses.
Hard - Ideal conditions for batting. Good deal of bounce on offer for fast bowlers as well. Could go either way
Dry/Slow - Ideal for slow and spin bowlers as the name suggests. Sometimes quite difficult to bat on.
Poor - Uneven bounce and a huge amount of turn on offer for spinners. Expect a slow hard grind for very few runs.
