2010 Test Match Tipping Comp

[NUFAN]

Seems to work well for the EPL and borrowed from the Aus Domestic Thread, reckon a few people on here might like to try there luck with Test matches.

Points Scoring
First Innings - 1 point
Final Result - 2 points
Most Runs in the Match - 1 point (or 2)*
Most Wickets in the Match - 1 point (or 2)**

Rules
- You must make your selections before the first ball has been bowled.
- No editing, but of course you can re select if you change your mind.
- If you select a tie as the final result and it's correct, you get 20 points.
- If you select a batsman who bats outside the top 6 in the teams first innings and he scores the most runs you get 2 points*.
- If you select a bowler who bats in the top 6 in the first innings and he gets the most wickets you get 2 points**.
- All equal most runs and most wickets will be counted.
