End of season awards

Nnanden · 03-09-2004, 02:34 AM

Hey, I dunno if this normally happens but I think itd be awesome to have these at the end of a season. Like naming the best pace bowler from a team, best fielder, etc. And also to have a "Season 7" team or something. What do you guys think, anything to add?

When will (if) nominations be listed?

marc71178 · 04-09-2004, 08:02 AM

Can't see there'll be nominations seeing as it's a highest scorer thing so there'll only be one person!

Nnanden · 04-09-2004, 07:04 PM

haha craig you wally...

bah, so its only how many wickets then, not averages or whatever? fair enough...

cant wait to see the CWXI team sent off, should be a ripper, some great new blood in this current dev season.

Nath - wickets is more fair then average, if someone takes 12 wickets @ 12.40 rather then someone who takes 75 wickets @ 29.00 i think i know who would be the better bowler.

Loony BoB · 04-09-2004, 11:53 PM

In 25Smash, it would be the one with less wickets!

marc71178 · 05-09-2004, 03:13 AM

If someone took 79 wickets in the Smash season, they'd be the better bowler.

superkingdave · 05-09-2004, 03:44 AM

Any chance of a Rookie of the Year?

roseboy64 · 06-09-2004, 02:36 PM

Would've liked that last season.Would have been between toogood and me.He would have won though.

Loony BoB · 06-09-2004, 02:46 PM

An All Rounder award would be nice, too, if we could figure a nice way to figure it out. Maybe take the batting average and subtract the bowling average, then the winner is the one with the highest number as a result?

EDIT: Of course, we'd need to make sure they'd bowled enough overs. Another way to do it would be 1 point per 50 runs / 3 wicket innings, 3 points per 100 runs / 5 wicket bag.

Neil Pickup · 06-09-2004, 04:49 PM

Use the lowest of Runs and Wickets*10 as an AR index.

Highest AR index wins. Call it the Flintoff medal.

N Pickup - Runs 57 Wickets 32 - AR Index = lowest of 57 and 320 = 57
P Young - Runs 219 Wickets 3 - AR Index = lowest of 219 and 30 = 30
L Camps - Runs 118 Wickets 5 - AR Index = lowest of 118 and 50 = 50

marc71178 · 06-09-2004, 04:58 PM

Dave - Runs 76, wickets 28
Mr Wright - Runs 65, wickets 22

Loony BoB · 06-09-2004, 05:05 PM

While an all rounder would have something like 150 runs, 10 wickets... meaning 100... good system.

Dammit, now I want to find out who rates highest in current world cricket.

Don't name it after a current cricketer, though. Name it after someone like Pollock (Graham) or even better, good ol' luckyeddie, as judging by his CW A-Z profile he's the greatest we've seen.

EDIT: I just realised what the 'LE' in The LE Award probably stands for.

There goes that idea.
