Normal averages, unless someone puts a good argument forward for standardising them.Will the simulation take place with normal averages etc or with some kind of standardised averages?
I hadn't actually considered this but I'll go with yes unless there's a reason not to.(assuming we can change it for the semi if we win this):

As probably everyone could have predicted, Samuel Vimes's South Africa dealt a heavy beating to NZTailender's Zimbabwe, winning 200-36.
Next up, India vs. Australia...
Yes and that's why I didn't have too many aggressive bowlers (Zaheer). All my 5 bowlers had good/great economy rates.I reckon that Aussie team had too much cake in it.
Your bowlers had 1980/90s economy rates and your batsmen had 2010 strike rates. Dev at 3.7. Prabhakar at 4.27.Yes and that's why I didn't have too many aggressive bowlers (Zaheer). All my 5 bowlers had good/great economy rates.![]()
Afridi is a more economical bowler than Shoiab. You are light on the batting if Afridi does not bowl.Pakistan
