[Na Maloom Afraad]

Goddamnit, our bowling let us down big time.

Though, I'm pretty sure I marked Jayasuriya to bowl and not Ganguly.

 

[Till Valhalla]

Very bad bowling performance.

Contracts:
Each team must have a minimum of 15 and a maximum of 18 active contracted players in their squad at all times.
No more than 10 Diamond + Platinum players in a squad.
You can only sign players from your available Unique Pool below.
Player cost per game equals his Tier rating.
Pay upfront for 1 - 5 games for any player in your Unique Pool (e.g., Tier 5 player for 3 games = 15 coins).
If you run out of budget or have fewer than 15 contracted players (for whatever reason), the Bowery King will give a helping hand.
If a player contract has expired (0) then you can retain that player if you want. Retention guide is given below.

Retention:
At contract’s end you may re-sign a player with a new contract + retention fee (equals Tier number).
Example: A 5-Tier player signed for 3 games initially costed 15 coins. To re-sign them for lets say 2 more games. New cost = (5 × 2) + 5 (Retention Fee) = 15 coins
Not retaining? Player is Exiled for 1 game before re-entering the player pool.

Format for signing a player:
[Number] - [Name] - [Games] - [Optional: Retention?] - [Coins Paid]
E.g.
1 - Sachin Tendulkar - 5 Games - 25 Coins
2 - Ricky Ponting - 3 Games - Retained - 20 Coins
...
Total Spent - 110 Coins

Lineup Rules:
Mark wicket keeper with †/ and a minimum of six bowlers with ^/:bowl:.
Name a captain for each game (C /)
Failure to post line up in given time will result in same or randomized lineup.

Pitch Types:

Spoiler: Pitch Types

Damp/Sticky - Massively in favor of bowlers and an absolute nightmare to bat on, unless you're Victor Trumper.

Dusty - Plenty of turn on offer for spinners and a good place to bat for spin-savvy batsmen. Good pace bowlers are still likely to thrive.

Even - Provides an evenly balanced contest for all disciplines of the game.

Flat - A batsman-friendly pitch which provides little or no assistance to bowlers. Expect big totals.

Green - A lot of movement on offer early on, making it ideal for fast bowlers. Batting expected to become easier as the match progresses.

Hard - Ideal conditions for batting. Good deal of bounce on offer for fast bowlers as well. Could go either way.

Dry/Slow - Ideal for slow and spin bowlers as the name suggests. Sometimes quite difficult to bat on.

Poor - Uneven bounce and a huge amount of turn on offer for spinners. Expect a slow hard grind for very few runs.

You can only renew players contracts once they have (0) games remaining.

Like in this round you can only renew Kamran Akmal.

Moreover you can only have max. 18 contracted players in your squad. You already have 17 right now. Unless you want to terminate existing contracts (fee 1 per termination). You cannot make more than 1 new signing in this round.
