The 5th Test, Game 5 of....The Ashes, Fiso-style...
Choose a team of 6 players, no restrictions on who you can have, but you must keep within the 25 Unit budget. One reserve - see below.
No two teams can be the same, so first in, guarantees his pick. (no edits to posted teams, re-post).
Deadline will be before the toss is made. Thursday morning 9am. Please get your teams in early if possible, the fewer I get on Thursday the better.
Prices for players will change for each Test. The top 3 scorers will increase by 1 Unit, the bottom 3 will decrease by 1 Unit. If you have a player who goes down in price you have this lower price, if you have a player who goes up in price you have him at the original price you purchased him for.
This overall game will run over all five Test Matches, teams can be changed for each test completely, or kept the same as long as they're unique for each Test.
RULES:
25 Units (max) per 6 player team. PLUS choose one player as a reserve in case any pick doesn't play (however, you must stay within the 25 unit allocation, so if you pick a reserve above 3 points you could have an invalid team).
SCORING:
Runs = 1 point each
Wickets = 25 points each
Catches/Stumping (wicketkeeper) = 10 points each
Nothing for Run-outs
The way I'm going to score this is:
Each Test match there will be points given to the top 15 places:
1st - 100
2nd - 75
3rd - 60
4th - 50
5th - 40
6th - 30
7th - 25
8th - 20
9th - 15
10th - 10
11th - 9
12th - 8
13th - 7
14th - 6
15th - 5
