If I see them I sell them so they arent lost
If I miss them then they are removed from the Nat team automatically
So is it best to flick you a message in that instance? Not that im likely to do this but im sure nat managers wouldnt mind a reporting process

Is there something that can be programmed to flag you a day or two before the team goes bot, if it’s set to 90 days (as an example) of inactivity to go bot surely one of the coding guys you have on your extensive payroll can code it to flag at 88 days, I know it’s a little harder for members but that too could be flagged along with the automated message to inform that membership is about to expire, saves guys like me messaging you all the time when we see one, although it is a great excuse to just get into one of our long tedious chats we have all the time.

When we announced it we did ask people in the mgmt team to msg us
Maybe something in the rules may help remind people

Eah week I get a list of teams going bot and review their players from there
90+% can just go bot
A few have the odd player and rarely is it a good team with lots of players

See I just knew you’d be all over it like Tex on a copy of Mullet monthly.
100% he’s biggest regret in life, the poor sod.

Form is representative of the fantasy points correct?
For bowlers are fantasy points linked largely on economy rate?
If so is the scale a sliding scale dependant on conditions, pitch and weather, eg hot dry seamers get more leeway? Flat humid spinners get more leeway?

At the moment it does not take into account bowlers in certain conditions
It is the next big math problem I am trying to solve

Yeah it’s probably why we see so many more bowlers go up in form than bats, obviously more bowling friendly pitches are used and FTP has always been a bowling dominant game to be honest so I’d welcome any changes in that area just for fairness sake.

What changes are we likely to see next and is there a timeframe around them?

That actually isn't true but repeated by enough that others believe it
The best players certainly do but across the board it is not the case

Hi,
My friend sent me a friendly match (Senior ODI) request on Saturday for this Wednesday. But we didn't quite agree on the pitch type, So i declined the original request and asked him to send me another. But he is unable to send another request for Wednesday. Is there any rule I’m unaware of, wherein you can send a request only once for a particular date?
Thanks in advance,
RiSo

Had 8 bowlers and 3 keepers go up in form 0 pure bats from my sides
Our Nat squad 8 bowlers 1 bat
I still maintain it’s easier for bowlers

The way the system works once you decline a friendly then the same team cant request a new one, the other team has to
