Academy Season 6

[Jamee999]

Simon how many matches does each player have to play this year?

 

[Simon]

theres no restrictions, managers have free reign to pick whoever they want, when they want...

 

[Robertinho]

Bangkok are looking for:

4D - Reasonable all rounder (Bat average 35+, bowling average -35)
Good seamer (Bowling average -26)
Specialist batsmen (Batting average 37+)

OD - Wicketkeeper with decent batting (Bat average 35+)
Economic specialist bowler (Economy -4.20, Bowling average -30)

Contact us if you have any excess players who fit these criteria, (bowling average = (Strikerate / 6) * Economy.) and tell us what exactly you are looking for, and we will try and help you.

s/r is indeed strike rate, which is the number of balls it takes the player to get a wicket.

E/r is economy rate which is the number of runs per over a bowler goes for.

ovs/match is he number of overs per match a bowler bowls. Obviously a bowler with 8 opm(the usual shortened version of overs per match) is much more likely to bowl his 10 overs than a bowler with 2 opm.
