The Next in Line (update required)

Caribbean Premier League by Aussie Team - The best West Indies-based league on PC, but only completed three seasons.

International Premier League by Aditya - one of the few very good Test-based leagues, but only a single season.

PlanetCricket from WCL by Hedger - four seasons and one of the few good leagues on Cricket Coach but lack of an index haha.

South African Premier League by ThebigGgamer - in progress, and fourth seasons. I've no idea how good it is so need someone else more active to provide the input. Besides should wait and see how far is it going to go.

Premier Cricket League by Sartaj - another brilliant league based on the longer format, but only three seasons.

Ultimate League - Iridium

- Unique Idea
- Very well managed
- Deep work on stats
- Activity is very high
- Large number of Participants
- Addition of innovative ideas every season.
- 3rd season running successfully.

I have no more words to describe that league.

 

[Dipak]

PCL by Sartaj should be in.

- Auctions were there, and were really well managed.
- Test format.
- Activity was high.

Global Premier League: Started in 2010 as a six team, four format league, the league expanded to ten teams in season four, and continued only in Season IV. The league eventually ran for nine long seasons. It was one of the first league to split players into various grades and have team restrictions based on them, so that even fringe team players got games. The most successful managers are @Haarithan and @CG123 both who have won the league twice. The league was notorious for the high number of ties and high scores (Sachin Tendulkar's 200)

Associate Premier League (The Author)

The Associate Premier League was originally an eight-team league with each franchise from a different Associate or Affiliate country, with only Associate and Affiliate players eligible to play in the competition. The format of the tournament ensured that it was not dominated by the Irish franchise. In this format, it was won by @Ahmad Shah (Nairobi, twice), @ThebigGgamer (Dubai), @Umair2000 (Toronto) and @Dipak (Amsterdam). It was later re-booted for an expanded, sixteen-team sixth season won by @VC the slogger (Glasgow).

'A' Championship (Varun)

The 'A' Championship was an innovative multi-format league, featuring the second-string teams of Australia, England, India, New Zealand, Pakistan, South Africa, Sri Lanka and West Indies. After five seasons of creative and diverse competitions, the league came to a close with @Samuels ranked on top of the table with his Pakistan 'A' team. However, the 'A' World Cup, which served as Season Four, was won by @riz7khan12 with Sri Lanka 'A'. It was also one of the first leagues to have a fitness and injuries mechanism.

Australian Premier League - (Biggy)

The Australian Premier League was the most notable of the golden era of Premier Leagues, as well as one of the longest-lasting. It ran for a full dozen seasons, with the Sydney Stallions, four-times champions, by far the most successful franchise. They won Seasons One and Two under @shantanu_rooney and Seasons Four and Eleven with @CG123 as their manager. The league was renowned for its efficiency and organisation. It would be welcomed back, were it ever to be revived.

Afrikan Premier League - (Riz Khan)

Running for six seasons, the Afrikan Premier League was the pre-eminent South African league seen on this forum. It was won by @CG123 (Cape Town, Seasons One and Four), @Chewie (Blomfontein, Season Two), @AkshayS (Polokwane, Season Three), @Iridium (Polokwane, Season Five) and @El Loco (Pretoria, Season Six). Steady turnover of players prevented any team from being able to build a dynasty, which kept things enjoyable for managers throughout.

 

[Aislabie]

English Premier League - (Iridium)

The English Premier League ran for eight huge seasons, over the course of four years. It was won by @Haarithan (Liverpool, Seasons One and Eight), @Sartaj (Nottingham, Seasons Two and Five), @CG123 (Durham, Seasons Three and Four), @BKB1991 (Southampton, Season Six) and @The Author (Northampton, Season Eight). It equally rewarded the ability to sign marquee players, as demonstrated by the Durham Dynamos, and a moneyball approach, as shown by newer franchise Northampton Tigers. It attracted tremendous loyalty from all managers who were a part of it.

 

[Aislabie]

Europa Cup - (VC the Slogger)

As you would expect from one of this forum's most innovative league managers, the Europa Cup was an entirely original concept. Featuring teams from the three main European Associates, as well as varying teams from the European continent. It was dominated by Scottish teams, with @Prats winning Season One with Edinburgh, and @Aggz winning Season Three with Highland. Clontarf also won Season Two for @Simon to represent the Irish contingent. There are no current prospects of a fourth season.

Great work The Author, thanks a lot! I'll update it in the first post asap, although you can do it as well, or can any of the other active staff members.

A minor nitpick: 'A' Championship actually had 5 seasons in all. 4 of them are included as archives, while the 5th one is contained in the post itself.

Sorted.

I'll get the others done in due course, in the fullness of time, etc.

Ah, did ya really have to bring that up? Now I feel tempted to bring it back to life for another season, even though I might not be in the best position to do so.

IIRC the Europa Cup was originally an idea of yours which I used. I only made minor adjustments by tampering with the team count and format every now and then.

 

[Gaurav_7]

Major League Cricket anyone? Not because I ran it but because it was run at a time when there weren't many smaller nation leagues present. Also, it lasted a while too and had some extensive stats. I am not a fan of this HoF tbh but now that you guys have gone ahead, it's alright.

 

[Varun]

Well it's more like an archive of great leagues....calling it a hall of fame doesn't hurt imo.

 

[Umair7]

PCL by Sartaj was tweaking awesome too
