Fantasy Cricket – ICC World Twenty20 2010

We have opened up our competition for the upcoming ICC World Twenty20 2010 with all the squads and schedule having been confirmed and as always it is 100% free to join a Cricket Web Fantasy Cricket competition.

It starts on 1st May and runs through to 16th May.

For those of you that are new to the Fantasy Cricket concept, we would suggest you have a read through our Game Guide which explains everything to you.

Once you are ready to go, head on in and Register and don’t forget it costs you absolutely nothing! If you have registered in the past for Cricket Web Fantasy Cricket or Cricket Web CW Games, you can login to your account through the Fantasy Cricket frontpage.

Some important points to note in this competition are:

* Player Rankings will be changed following the completion of the Indian T20 Tournament 2010 competition to account for international form as opposed to IPL form.

* There will no longer be seperate all-rounder slots for Twenty20 competitions. There will be seven batsman slots, one wicket-keeper slot and three bowler slots. This is being implemented due to the number of all-rounders in the game now and the difficulty around classifying whether a player is a batsman or an all-rounder. Thanks to all the visitors who suggested this through the ticket system.

We of coures have some prizes for the competition which are as follows. Further prizes may be added depending on partners. Stay tuned!

1st Price – $25 to spend at the Cricket Web Shop at Cafe Press.

2nd Price – $20 worth of Cricket Web gear from the Cricket Web Shop

3rd Price – $15 worth of Cricket Web gear from the Cricket Web Shop

If you have any questions or problems, please log a Helpdesk call.
