And to think, I was considering researching this myself!

Nice one James.

[smalishah84]

I should have made a fantasy team as well

[vcs]

Sreesanth lol.

[James]

Who knew Shem Ngoche was that bad

[Somerset]

I wonder how many expected Robin Peterson to be South Africa's highest scoring player in the fantasy competition at this stage of the tournament?

On another note, brilliant to see an associate player, RtD, in the top five.

[TT Boy]

I’m not sure how points are dished out but how is John Mooney rated above Ray Price? Price took 9 wickets @ 18 with an economy of just 3.4. The best economy rate of any opening bowler in the WC.

[KiWiNiNjA]

Best fantasy players not best players.

Obviously economy rate isn't factored in?

runs + (wickets x 20) or something?
+ catches x ?
- outs x ?

[James]

This how the points are given out guys - Cricket Web's Fantasy Cricket - Points Summary

Economy rate as you'll see is taken into account.

[M0rphin3]

Out of form Shakib still in top 15. WAG.

[vcs]

Can't believe Zaheer's below Haddin, McCullum and Kallis BTW..

All-rounders obviously the most value in fantasy.

All rounders ftw!

[Tom 1972]

White & Ponting outside the top 120. So much potential upside to this Aussie side for tonight.

Oi oi oi.
