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

If any team needs a manager I'd be more than happy to fill in.

The fact that the runners up in the Irish One Day tournament are denied participation in this really takes away the importance of it

I didn't want to make this tournament too long by including so many teams. Instead I kept the 8 teams that were announced BEFORE the Irish One-Day Tournament even began. Besides, it's better to keep them for the next CL given the state of the league section.

@RUDI

WARM-UP 4

:ind: Rajasthan Royals vs :ind: Chennai Super Kings at Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore
- Excellent pitch to bat on with slight assistance to spinners.
@The Real Modi

BACKGROUND

Chennai was arguably the best team on-paper in the Indian One-Day Championship before their campaign became plagued and they were eliminated before the final.
Losing two of their mainstays in Shakib Al Hasan and Glenn Maxwell right towards the end did not bode well as Rajasthan knocked them out in the second semi-final.

HEAD-TO-HEAD

- INDIAN ONE-DAY CHAMPIONSHIP
- Rajasthan Royals 2 - 1 Chennai Super Kings

PLAYER CLASHES

- None.

LINEUP RULES

- You can not drop Your captain (:c:)
- You must have at least five capable bowling (:ar:/:bwl:) options in Your playing xi
- You must have at least one genuine wicket-keeping (:wk:/:wkb:) option in Your playing xi
- You can have a maximum of four overseas (:os:) players in Your playing xi
