goose Posted January 21, 2018 Author Share Posted January 21, 2018 @speedheat @Austin 3:!6 I just noticed a typo - your bowler selection in 1st test was Bumrah not Bhuvneshwar as incorrectly stated in OP. The points and rankings are still correct though Link to comment

Fielder Rahane to be safe. Except Kohli nobody else is 100% sure of getting picked. Even Ashwin is doubtful on a green top . goose 1 Link to comment
zen Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 A strategy tip: if you pick the same players as those who have more points, you will remain in the same position to move up, you would need to select players not many would pick and hope that the do well goose 1 Link to comment

maniac Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 (edited) @goose are their any minus points if you pick a fielder and he drops a catch? I see people who picked Pappu Patel as fielder for 2nd test doing pretty well and even though keeper is by default going to be the fielder who takes most catches etc atleast 9/10 times, guys like pappu screw teams with their catching as well. Shouldn’t that be accounted for? Edited January 22, 2018 by maniac Link to comment

Shouldn’t that be accounted for? Interesting. We could consider it for future series. Who decides what is a missed catch though? To be honest this has been a weird series. Normally in a 3 test series you would have one keeper, and posters would just need to decide which test they wanted to play their trump card i.e. choose the keeper to be the fielder. In this series it might be possible to have a keeper in every match coz they've all been different (if Karthik plays). In a five test series the performance of other catchers comes into things far more. Edited January 22, 2018 by goose Gollum 1 Link to comment

Maybe missing a catch like letting it go through slip cordon etc can be overlooked but sure a drop catch can be accounted for . Stumping miss can be subjective at times just like can’t penalize a fielder for missing a direct hit. Link to comment
