@TSPrathik & @CerealKiller you both shown interest to co-manage a team here, so that's why i tagged you here... If you like, you can take one national team and post 16 players squad for the series...
Existing managers can also choose a national team if they want... @Ashutosh. @Parth D @Yash. @mohsin7827 @Manish. @Till Valhalla @Naman7 @Murtaza96 @Andrin Issac @Mijurkat @NePtuNe Gaming @Life Warrior @AJ MODS @RUDI @ddrap14
Simulating T20i Series along with The League means, who ever get selected for National Team, they might not be available to play for franchise team during the series... Fixture will be update soon...Pakistan
West Indies
Request to Existing managers, please reserve your signup for National Teams atleast for 2 days... I like to see new names, new members here... If we not get new signups than, you can take a team one by one...
Also if any National Team mangers pick unorthodox squad, than i take the squad selection to my hand...
First I give preference to new members, because they not bound to any franchise teams, so they can pick best team as possible for the series...Hmmm...
Some concern from my side ....
Love the idea, it brings real life into account, players getting a National call-up. However, there should be so boundaries put in place.
For example: Let's say I end up managing RSA, as a team manager I want the best possible line-up. So I draft players from Neptune's Ninja's and Lions. In the back of my mind I also want Neptune's Ninja's to do poorly as it will advance my Lions into the league. I mean we all drafted the best possible players, so the majority of "Domestic" players will be called up for international duty.
@Pinch hitter , how are you going to manage International squad selections in order that it doesn't effect the domestic sides too badly? And what rules are you going to put in place in order for me (example above) not drafting Neptune's Ninja's best local players and leaving mine? Not mentioning our international players also getting call ups to their respective national sides?
Tough balancing act this. Not wanting to sound negative, just need some clarity on my questions above please.
imo, this is becoming too complex and few managers might loose interest just because it will become unfair for them or they will just give up midway because they spent their 3000 coins with a lot of strategy, and then just to see the cream players of their squad being unavailable.Player Replacement Rule
If any player is not available for a team due to injuries or National duty for 3 or more rounds of play, than team can activate Player Replacement Rule... Team can get one local and one overseas players as a replacement in that kind of a situation... Replacement player price must be same or lower than current player price... This facility only available during Round 2 to 10...
All this obstacles is to test manager capabilities, how well they picked a squad... How good balanced team they have... And how well they can manage new challenges and come up as a winner...The teams have been made with a lot of mind involved . Just go with normal fixtures & injury rules etc .....
If some lose interest, let it be... I don't mind... At the end of the league I will find best manager, who manage every challenges very well and come up as true winner... Not just like a Go same, Go Same, Yes I am the winner...imo, this is becoming too complex and few managers might loose interest just because it will become unfair for them or they will just give up midway because they spent their 3000 coins with a lot of strategy, and then just to see the cream players of their squad being unavailable.
They did this without knowing that there will be international series simultaneously. If they would have known in prior about the international tours. They could have made squad accordingly.All this obstacles is to test manager capabilities, how well they picked a squad... How good balanced team they have
