International cricket captain sim league

jimmy101

Cricketer Of The Year
Inspired by Samuel Vimes' current FC league, I will be hosting a sim league using the PC game International Cricket Captain 2013 (yes, I know it's not the latest version but I can't be f'd updating for what is essentially the same game). Another reason why I'm using ICC '13 is because I am in possession of an editing program for the game which allows me to compile teams of players from different countries from any era.

I'm looking for 8 players, at this stage I won't be participating, just managing. However, if we struggle for numbers I'll join in.

RULES:

- This will be just a basic ATG draft, meaning that pretty much anyone is available. However, the 'All time greats' mode in ICC '13 has a few notable players missing from the game (Michael Slater being one off the top of my head) and so, before we start I'll post a list of who's available & who isn't.

- Rather than the use of round orders, the draft will operate on a free-for-all basis from round to round where (like Vimes' FC draft in the latter stages) a timer will be set for the start of each round.

- Each player selects a squad of 14 players.

- Once we have 8 players, the teams will be split into two groups where they will each play one another in the group stage. The top 2 from each group will progress to the semis & then the final. Basically a 1975 CWC setup.

- Before each match I will provide pitch & weather details.

If you have any other questions/suggestions please throw them my way.

I actually asked the makers of the game on facebook recently why Slater & some other big names (Warwick Armstrong too I think) were missing & apparently the ATGs weren't selected manually, but with some kind of software system.

Sorry Shri, you were a touch late mate. However, one of the other guys might let you co-manage a team with them. If someone drops out I'll PM you.

So now that we have our magic 8 we're good to go. I'll be back online soon with a list of available players & some more info.

I'm not sure I would be able to participate, but if you want, I can send you a link to a player editor which essentially allows you to convert any nobody to any player in history. You can see the values of the already ATG players (or any current great) as a sort of reference when creating these players.

Apologies in advance for any spelling errors.

I haven't listed Bangadesh & Zimbabwe players because there aren't any bigtime omissions from those teams. Players such as Tamim, Shakib, the Flowers, Streak & Houghton are all a yes.

Before we start I'd just like to clarify, this will be a Test match tournament &, of course, Bradman is disallowed. I'd also like to remind you all to be careful when considering current players who debuted after 2010. Remember, we are using ICC '13 to sim this, for example, a player such as Joe Root had only played 4 Tests when this game was made. Be sure to keep this in mind.

Once everyone has selected their entire squads the teams will be seeded into groups & I will go over the points system for the group stage. Good luck everybody.

Yes, that's the very program I am going to use. Faizan cricket editor I think it's called. But I think it's a bit iffy and unfair to start creating players, it's just best to leave them out.
