Why is that necessary?

All rounders generally bat down the order and may not get to bat....or very few balls to face and may not even get to bowl or only 1 0r 2 overs ..that is already a risk in picking a =n allrounder.

Classic example is Hardick....today he did't get to bat and only bowled 1 over.

You should level the playing field....and let FL players take the risk.

In reply to Narper

Another option would be to have criteria for the number of batters, bowlers and allrounders each team should have. Nick already said that didn't work in the past as posters submitted invalid teams and it complicated the FL. Also classifying some players may be problematic.

Other than setting limits to the number of allrounders in the team there is no other way to depress the allrounder factor.

Yes, picking an allrounder especially one that bats down the order runs the risk that they may not have the opportunity to contribute, just like Hardik today.

What about rewarding specialists with more points per run but doing so after they score a base figure. Said base staggered as per batting position. E.g Specialist batters 1-4 have to score more than 12 runs to start earning points. 5-7/9 and 8-11/5. In all cases once they pass base score they get standard points plus 5/6/8 for each run scored in pp1-overs 1-6, middle overs 7-14, death overs 15-20. Workable?

PS. A specialist may be demoted for any reason and bat after the 6th wicket has fallen

we had a system here once (or was it cricinfo or somewhere else?) where you identity a star player (can't remember what it was called) who gets double points

this was a nice way to separate the chickens from the curries

In reply to doosra

Dream XI which does the IPL and World cup FL have that system. Double the points for captain and 1.5 times the points for vice captain.

That did add another facet to the game

In reply to cumberland



Would work but far beyond my mickey mouse capabilities.

We did one FL where you had to pick an actual team of a captain/bowlers/bats/allrounders/wk. That was terrible fun.
