Panel of Selectors
The WICKET (Wacky International Cricket Knockout Entertaining Tournament) is the best international tournament ever thought of.
WHO CAN PARTICIPATE:
Any international team*. You could take Turkey, or Australia, or anyone in between. Whichever team you select, you have to choose 15 players who have not publicly announced their retirement, and have played professional cricket in the last 2 years. If less than 15 players meet this criteria, you'll have to make do with less than 15 players. Any amount of people can sign up.
*who have played an international in the past 2 years
HOW IT WORKS:
This is a knockout tournament, you could end up playing just 1 match (especially if you choose an associate) or playing 4+ matches and making a title run. Before the start of each round, I will give certain "effects" to randomly decided teams using RANDOM.ORG. These will make the result unpredictable and are designed to increase the chance of upsets. The recipients of the effects will be revealed at the end of the round.
WHAT ARE THE EFFECTS?
The following is a list of the effects:
One team cannot receive two effects in the same round (except the Scrambled Eggs)
