Yeah I'd be interested as well. Been thinking of how you could run a prediction competition for cricket and the cricinfo game seems the only way.

Thanks Darren

If he withdraws before the first game, no probs just substitute him .

If he gets injured during the series, you will have the option of using your one sustitution per game . If you happen to have 2 players injured then it's just the luck of the draw
(Also, It would be too tricky to decide who was being 'rested' or genuinely injured with the way they rotate the teams)

Yes as long as you have a reliable internet connection

5 teams in so far with a commitment from several others so it looks like it may be an interesting and competative comp.

Thanks for the interest
