Re: Fantasy IPL 2009
Can someone explain what this is and what to do, I may then try and put in a team. Is it made up cricket teams made up of the best players around the world against each other and you pick so many players in the fantasy league to gain you points like in footy leagues. I haven't a clue bout this stuff sorry si!

Re: Fantasy IPL 2009
Do you get any extra info to help decide which batters to go for, like what clubs they use or anything?

Re: Fantasy IPL 2009
Nath/Turps, I suggest we start a new thread for us in the know to discuss the IPL at lengths. The neanderthals can continue here.

Re: Fantasy IPL 2009
Crofty, all you need to know is here IPL . Basically the core of the team is Indian players with a top Indian player in each side (almost).
They then select other players from around the world and they play in a league over a number of weeks with the top 4 (I think) going into the semis with a winner takes all at the end.
Its 20 over games and in the fantasy league compe youget points for scoring runs (the faster the more points you get), taking wickets, making catches etc as well as reaching landmarks (ie 50's, 100's, 3 wickets, economy rates etc).
My only advice I will freely give is choose your captain wisely as they count for double points and use up a lot of transfers (you get 40 and they take up 8) so ideally you wouldn't want to change him through the whole competition.
And Dan, I say not publically viewable.

Re: Fantasy IPL 2009
Nor me. I don't want Dan copying my team just to keep up with me. Eakes, oh legend of cricket, please can you pm me with advise on which catchers are in form? It's not like I'm gonna beat you so you've nothing to lose.

Don't bother Eakes, let him humiliate himself without any help.

Re: Fantasy IPL 2009
Happy with the team I've created. After not putting any effort in last year, I've done my research. I've only 4 non-Indians in my team.
