Post Line-ups Champions League XX - Round 1 - It's time to give the people what they need, not what they want...

[Fenil]

Yeah but eight teams , when splitted into groups becomes easier to manage he clashes.

I don't want any groups! There should be a fixture in which each team plays every other team. That would be fair.

As the masses demand.
Splitting into groups is good because each team faces a member in their group twice once home and once away. So it helps in resolving clashes as the home team can choose the player incase there's a double clash (like Season 6)

What if a situation arises when say Group team with 0.188 net runrate is 3rd best in the group and another team of different group has 0.187 net runrate and is second in the group. Both the mentioned teams has equal points.

Ideally, the first team has better NRR and should proceed to semi-finals but thanks to the group thing, despite having better NRR, the first team will not qualify while the second team of other group with lesser NRR will qualify for semis!

Groups has its own debatable drawbacks, my friend.

Then we can have the groups with a common points table.

Thats not a bad idea.

Oh, so my league (MCC) is also there.

I thought only specific Nation's PL are allowed here. But that's good then.

 

[Dipak]

This edition of the CL would be jointly hosted by Austalia & New Zealand

 

[Iridium]

Hopefully, the EPL should be done by the end of the week.

 

[Haarithan]

APL: Brisbane Bandits
MCC: Nairobi Nomads
ZPL: Mashonaland Eagles
SLPL: Basnahira Bears
NZPL: Hawkes Bay Magpies

EPL: Semi-final

Unless Liverpool qualify for the Champions League, I'm pretty sure Hawke's Bay Magpies are good enough to go all the way. Liverpool are a much stronger outfit than during Season 1/Champions League 6. So practically speaking, only they really stand a chance in ruining our party here in the CL. Then again, I'd hardly be bothered given I'll be managing Liverpool as well.

 

[Gaurav_7]

Good way to convince yourself before anything. I like it, keep it up.

 

[Dipak]

Dammit. I wanted a qualifier.

Alright but it's the people who the last say. So I am just waiting for the EPL to get over and then we can start. Six teams, Five rounds, Fifteen + two/three matches

I will give data about the player clash and the playoffs format later as I have to make it again. The one I made before was or a tourney with eight teams (if we had the qualifier)

Feel free to use mine (technically Swirler's) from the previous edition, given I had the same number of teams in '6' as well.
