[ABDULLAH]

Disastrous performance by the team. Lower order scored more runs than the rest of the team. Denly, Hildreth, Trego and KOB's form is a matter of concern. Except Rashid no other bowlers are living upto the mark. A couple of more defeats and we are out of the contest. Completely clueless.

Quite shocked with that batting performance . The batters never really got going into the chase . It's now been 2 straight losses after that tied match . We won't mind Coulter-Nile's high economy rate unless he keeps taking wickets , but that isn't working now for us ....

At the match-end , Mason Crane bowled quite well to Smith & Labushcagne . And looks good to play matches hereafter ...

This is the advantage of points system that favors overall performances and not results alone. Four teams to have lesser wins than York end up being above them.

Could also be put like ths: when difference between two teams is considerably narrow, it justifies that losers should also be rewarded.

But a win is always a win

 

[Ohm]

But a win is always a win

You're still getting minimum 3 points for winning, which is thrice the size of what other side gains.

Still we have 1 more win than others
Anyways it's your league and you can use your creativity

 

[Ohm]

Well then your team should have been more dominative in those wins than it has been.

Anyways it's your league and you can use your creativity

Yeah, but I'm open to comments and opinions.

 

[Pinch hitter]

Yeah, but I'm open to comments and opinions.

Instead of rewarding 25% of points to losing team with narrow margin, you can reward them only 20%... I mean it could be good if points like 4/1 or 5/0... For tie game 3 each...

 

[Yash.]

Or you could add the batting and bowling points similar to that in a First Class.
