Each team's players and remaining transfers should be visible to all others.

There'd be too much gaming near the top of the table if that was the case I reckon. The winner should be decided by how well each manager manages his own side; not how well he can stalk his close competitors.

Couldn't agree more with Shaff.

T-20s are kind of low scoring here @ cricketweb, quite unlike the format(t-20) itself. Even I was playing T-20 WC Fantasy League @ cricinfo; They have some really interesting points system. Like :- 1) 6 points when a SIX is hit. 2) Better points distribution for higher Strike-rates. 3) 20 odd points when a Maiden is bowled.

These 3 points (especially last two) should really be considered.

Example :- If I'm picking Saeed Ajmal (Highest ranked player with Grade A) in my fantasy league at the cost of some other player whom I can't get in due to less money left, it's simply not worth it, as if he bowls a maiden (that happens quite rarely in T-20s), I'm still not getting any point for it. Strange !

Similarly for batting. Only 5 points for SR between 150 and 175 ? Means if Gayle scores 100 runs in 50 balls we will still get only 10 odd points for his awesome strike rate of 200 ? Man !

@ cricketweb management, Kindly look into this matter. If you guys want, this game can really be more interesting. Thanks.

I agree with you.

Thanks for the feedback guys.

We do plan on doing a new feature of the Fantasy Cricket software, but at this stage, it won't be until the first half of next year.

The ESPN version is slightly flawed. The "6 points per SIX" figure is too high. It really sways the picks from picking say someone like Kallis/Gambihr... tradition medium scoring player who will get 4;s all over the place, but few 6's. And will lean them into picking more of a Pathan/Franklin player, who belts it and can score high or low.

What i do love is adding Maidens. Say 20/25 points. Also upping the run rate for batsmen.

Hey James!

Hope you remember me.
I also hope as many of us have been advocating for few modification in software from long time. Quarter of year has passed, hope by mid of year you will come up with more discussions and take steps to modify the software.

I would like to add one more suggestion.
People are fighting for Static competition and Dynamic competition.
We can have another category in which match day competition can be played.
It would be great to see individual match-by-match score. and ranking in that match of the series. In a series i might end up in top 50, but may be for one game I will be Rank-1,

And in a series if i miss 1 game(in case of IPL 2-3 day) i am out of competition,
So whatever i do i will have to sit, wait and watch other playing, this match by match will give use chance to play something for and will make it more interesting. Many things happen in life, and sometimes it get difficult to make change in team every time before a game in a series. This will help to overcome this.

It a addiction trying get Rank-1 somehow. hopefully we can make it more interesting by this.

Thanks for the suggestion mate

We keep all suggestions aside so when we next do an upgrade, we can include a lot of them in our development.

And yes, no cost captaincy changes would make things interesting.

I second Daemon's suggestions with one addition that the static team format should have one trade window at the halfway point of the group stage. And then of course after the group stage, at the eliminator/SF/Final stage, there should be infinite trades allowed. Plus the injury/no show trades as well.

Would be nice for the lazy ones like me, but still a little proactive

Thanks for the suggestion
