Just a quick question, do players values change throughout the tournament?

This will impact on when/how I make my changes.

Clearly plenty of agreement with me that YKP and Trott are two of the cheapest deals.

Just realised we have a buttload (200) modifications available..Quick question, is a general tactic to switch around players every other game to gain maximum points? Because I don't think I'll be able to follow for the entire duration of the tournament anymore if thats the case

there are 31 days in which matches are being played in the group stages

that equates to 6 changes with 14 changes left over for the QFs onwards

All this is provided that you don't change your captain

Yeah I realised that recently too. Dampened my enthusiasm somewhat when your score is more or less tied to how often you are able to/can be bothered to change your team.

Same. I remember this fantasy league for the 1st IPL on facebook some time back where we were allowed 4 changes, and injuries didn't give you anything

I ended up 4th/4000+ people without even checking my progress, unfortunately the Batting Gloves I was promised as a reward never showed up

Is there a mistake with J Kallis' fantasy cricket points or is there something I'm not seeing here?

He is down as -5 but I calculate it as -1

catch = +10
4 runs = +4
economy rate of 7 = -15

total = -1

also, is this the correct place to post this? didn't seem like it was worth a whole thread
