Lockdown tournament (SEASON 2 - Updates in first post)

[Mouseydread]

I'm struggling to think of anyone at 3 who has been consistently good. That being said one of the 100s was Babar Azam at 3.

I've had two scores in the teens, two ducks and a 38. I have had 4 different players at number 3 though.

Edit - de Villiers and Banton have done well - I think they've been at 3.

Ithink Rassie van der Dussen has been decent at 3.

Yes Banton has done good when I move him to 3. But my middle order was shit in the group stage not a single 50 I guess.

Between if any one can help plz who all are stars of middle order.

Weirdly I think I've had two fifties at three. One from Pujara and one from Clarke.

Looking at the stats overall including Group C, as best as they can be compared to real life.

Almost double the frequency of 50s overall in the tournament (every 8 innings vs every 15 innings).

63% of 50s scored by openers (IRL it's closer to 50%).

• Opening position averages are 9 runs and 13.5 runs higher than real life.

• Number of 50s from 3 are about half at 11.6% compared with 23.4% IRL but the actual average is a little higher. The closest to the real life average for that position out of every position. Number 3 has the fewest ducks than any position in the top 8. I think we are probably missing those 50s which make us think players are doing better. More 50s might lead to more not outs for some players and higher averages.

• Four and Five are three runs lower than real life.

• Number six is three runs higher.

• The other positions are lower than real life, by at most 1.8, apart from number 11 which is almost 3 runs higher in game stats.

• Average strike rate IRL is 119; in the tournament it's 146.
• Average run rate IRL is 7.61 and in the tournament it's 9.02.

It's only 90 innings. But you can easily see where the major differences are. There's lots of factors that might skew things a little, like people playing players in positions they might not necessarily play IRL. It could be that bowlers are less effective early on or opening batsman are too effective. Average powerlay runs & wickets is probably too high and too low, respectively.

i've posted my lineups for my next two matches... I'm trying to drastically change my lineup for both matches to see what happens... worse that can happen is i lose both matches, but at this point I'm not winning the tournament anyways...

and here's my lineup, with batting order, for the QFs. The umpire is on the left.



If that group of fine, upstanding players are successful, as I fully expect them to be, I'm planning on resting them and using these players in the semis:

First match should start in 5 minutes.

 

[wasteyouryouth]

Trump's Fringe have been rocked by Panthers. 3 wickets gone in the first 5 overs.

@blockerdave @Mouseydread Your game might be starting a bit earlier than expected.
