OK, so these are the clashes with a home team?

AB de Villiers - Bucks

Jacques Kallis - Cobras

JP Duminy - Cobras

Brendon McCUllum - Magpies

Eoin Morgan - MCC

Leaves 10 clashes..

I am not a fan of a player playing for 2 different teams in the same competition. I think each player should be assigned to a squad before the comp starts.

Some of the clashes should never eventuate because of the teams being in different groups though. I'm not sure how they could be assigned to a squad and this is how it was in the past two editions.

Hashim Amla - Titans v Otago
AB de Villiers - Bucks v Titans
JP Duminy - Cobras v MCC
Mitchell Johnson - Bucks v Titans
Jacques Kallis - Adelaide v Cobras
Brendon McCullum - Bucks v Magpies
Kyle Mills - Titans v Otago
Ray Price - Cobras v MCC

Only two clashes in group plays where a home team is not involved. I tried to minimise it as much as possible. In the play-offs anything can happen though.

 

[Biggy]

I tried to work it out but some players just lost too much talent (up to 3 batsmen in some cases) so your idea is the best way.

Where's Abdul Razzaq in Otago's squad?

Must have missed him out. Fixing now

And as you can see I've gone a bit overboard with the all-rounders

 

[CG123]

In the NZPL I have Graeme Smith as a PT bowler, and not Martin Guptill as one.
While here Martin Guptill is one, while Graeme Smith isn't.
Smith has taken 47 List A wickets, while Guptill has taken 2...

 

[Chewie]

Well I don't really expect Guptill or Smith to bowl but I'll make Smith one as well Just that I don't remember the last time Smith bowled.

 

[CG123]

I don't really remember him bowling in RL, but going by his stats he bowls in every 3rd/4th ODI innings.
Bilal bowled him at bit in the NZPL.

 

[Sartaj]

This will be our third game in a row against the Lions.

 

[Chewie]

Well you had one match in between them

I used a fixture generator to make them and that's what they came up with.

I also see that the first round Otago v Hawke's Bay is basically the final, which won't have been played by then...

 

[CG123]

I like the look of my line-up:

1. Chris Gayle
2. Jacques Kallis (c) (^)
3. Ricky Ponting
4. Michael Clarke
5. JP Duminy
6. MS Dhoni (wk)
7. Andrew Hall (^)
8. Johann Louw (^)
9. Tyron Henderson (^)
10. Nuwan Kulasekara (^)
11. Andre Nel (^)

For the normal and poor pitches I still got Murali and Price to come back in, as well as Mathews and Yousuf as international cover, and the best local talent in AfPL season one, Stiaan van ZyL.

It might be, depending on when you post your matches.
