PSL 11 Discussion & Sign-ups

[MOD-wmchamps]

mate, take the yod3 spot for wiw given my side's a bit shite and i'm a bit busy anyways

It's alright, just like all other seasons I do anticipate us needing at least one reserve team to fill in for someone so I can use either of my teams for that.

PSL 11 Information

1: ALL matches will be played in the T20 format.
Which means that the Platinum, Diamond, Gold, and Silver leagues will play T20 friendlies, and the 3 Youth leagues will all play YT20 friendlies.

2: We have 4 franchises this season which includes last season's defending champions, the West Indies Warriors.
So the format will be a single round-robin (Each franchise plays the others once) followed by the top 2 teams playing the final.

3: Winning franchise members each get a prize of either 1 month Pavilion membership or 40 game credits.
If we can get some more sponsors in then we can also do a prize for the runners-up and upgrade the prizes for the winners.

4: Franchises and captains are as follows:
West Indies Warriors (Bustergut)
Karachi Kings (Gan)
Rawalpindi Express (Hchou1717)
Multan Sultans (TDC)

5: Draft will be started by Monday, so I will be making the draft list and order this weekend.

6: Pompei cricket club (babba1983) has automatically been assigned to Karachi Kings since the 2 other YT20 2 teams are captains of other franchises and Pompei was the only unassigned team left in the league.

Platinum

Multan Sultans
Rawalpindi Express
West Indies Warriors

Windies only need to draft for Gold & Silver

You have Damaster (vietd) assigned to you for Silver and for Platinum we have 4 teams that signed up (not counting yours), so we have to ask you to move your main team from Platinum to reserve category just so we can fit everyone and allow them to participate.

Season 56 FTP Week 10 Round 1 - Match Preview + Review

Prediction: The Bookies predict (based purely on ratings favourites) a 4-3 victory with the evenly matched Diamond Clash likely to determine the overall result (bar some overturned results due to ratings higher than the ceilings).

Caterham Crusaders (Bustergut) vs The Royal
[Platinum Seniors - Open Rating]
match 6697057
Wednesday 29/11 10.00 | Windy Uneven
Prediction:This appears on paper an easy win for KK with The Royal (~270k) rating 20k more than Caterham Crusaders (~250k), but anything’s possible in the lottery that is T20.
Result: As expected, the Royal (267k) were too strong for the CC (263k) curtesy of a skippers 50.

Never liked the name of my team (meinkadett) vs Stunning Stars (DEVI)
[Diamond Seniors - Max 250k]
match 6697058
Saturday 2/12 0900 | Windy Slow
Prediction: This clash will see two teams that should be able to get close to the 250k ceiling and hopefully provide an absolute thriller!
Result: Never liked the name of my team (246k) stumbled over the line to beat Stunning Stars (251k). A 4 off the last ball to clinch the match and the opening tie for the West Indie Warriors!

Damaster (vietd) vs The Dross (ukbwleague)
[Gold Seniors - Max 225k]
match 6697101
Saturday 2/12 0800 | Hot Flat
Prediction: This match will see vietd have to massage his team (~245k) down to the 225k ceiling, making him the favourite against the Dross (~215k).

[Silver Seniors - Max 200k]
match 6697075 | Sunny Uneven
Sunday 3/12 0000 | Sunny Uneven

Result: Walking Champ (199k) saw out a fighting challenge from
Indigo Greens (195k) but the seam duo of Ameen and Wong were too dominant and the bats were about to chase down the total set.

Berkshire CCC (berksowl) vs Indian Tigers (PoweRrr)
[Youth - Open Rating]
match 6697123
Wednesday 29/11 1200 | Cloudy Uneven
Prediction: The top flight youth match sees Berkshire CCC (~145k) and Indian Tigers (~140k) head to head in what should play out as a thriller.
Result: Berkshire (150k) were far too strong for the Indian Tigers (130k) and a 9 wicket win pursued curtesy of openers dominating a chase.

Shahzaday won the toss, bowl first, restrict Pompei to 113 and chase it down with 2 overs to spare.

[Youth - Max 100k]
match 6697070

Prediction: Blobs (~70k) will need a miracle as Hereford (~110k) will look to use all of the available 100k ceiling.
Result: Blobs (97k) dominated HH (93k) and a century from the opener lead to a 60 run win for the Blobs.

Rawalpindi Express vs Multan Sultans
Prediction: The ratings also suggesting this will be a closely run 4-3 win for the Rawalpindi Express but in all honesty most games are close enough they could truly go either way.

Diamond - Won by Blade Brakers (MS)
Gold - Won by Groundfielders (RE)
Silver - Won by Elite Eradicants (RE)

Cover point (Btuli) vs Sofa King (ZombieRox)

match 6697124
Sunday 03/12 0000 | Cloudy Dry
Prediction: Groundfielders (~240k) and De Houthakkers (~250k) both look capable of playing a division higher and will have the challenge of fitting under the 225k ceiling to play in the Gold division.
Result: Both teams rated 220k and as often is the way on dry pitches Groundfielders batting first made the most of it courtesy of 95 from MoTM Bennett. Bowlers then got the job done.

[Silver Seniors - Max 200k]
match 6697153
Sunday 03/12 1000 | Windy Green

[Youth - Max 125k]
match 6697055
Sunday 03/12 0200 | Overcast Dry
Prediction: Gojra Gators (~130k) will look to use all the available 125k against the weaker Misfits (~120k).
