Season III
First, I'd like to thank all the managers from the previous season for their support. You guys got the lineups in, we got the season moving. So, thank you for being so active. Fenil and Sahil leave us and I thank them for being there. Hopefully, they will come back in future. There are no new additions as of now as far as managers are concerned. But, we have 3 in the waiting list and I hope I'll be able to provide them with teams in future.
For season III, there are some new things I've thought of/planned. First, for the shuffle, I think I am going to go with what we did in season II. Players release and a
Other planned additions include:
1. An IPL XI at the end of the season selected on the basis of points the players score throughout the tournament (Note: For explanation on points see below). We might also have an IPL XI v Other leagues XI series which will depend when the season concludes.
2. Manager of the season award. This is something which will be implemented from this season onwards to appreciate the managers for all their hard work. It will also bring a small amount of vcash prize along with it. The criteria for this is vast but, in brief let me explain it. Managers' job doesn't just end by posting the lineups. There is more to it. Post match comments, activity, various press release posts, etc. will matter. This award shall be the most prestigious award of the IPL PC Style from now on and it will only go to the deserving manager(s).
3. Fantasy Cricket. Yes, it will be a lot of work for me but, I think this will make the league that much more entertaining for you people. Anyone and everyone can enter it and you will only have to select an XI from all the 8 teams. Every now and then, there will be an FC update say after every 3 rounds. Now, the points. The players' performances will earn them the points. Here is how the points will be given -

The players' performances will earn them the points. Here is how the points will be given -
Every run scored = 1 point
Solo wicket = 25 points
Assisted wicket = 15 points
- 20, 30, 40 and 50 bonus points for scoring 50, 75, 100 and 125+ runs respectively.
- 10, 20, 40 and 50 bonus points for taking 2, 3, 4 and 5+ wickets respectively.
These points scored will also determine who gets in the IPL XI at the end of the season.
Now, I'd request the managers to post the players which they want to retain so we can get the things moving. Chennai have already released one player in Sourav Ganguly who retires from the IPL.
