No news on Prior yet. Just checked and he's actually been selected 4 times ( and not 2 as I said befoore)

Good to see a decent turnout, good luck with the number crunching dtc

Yeah good luck mate, hope its not too bad

Pleased with 20 runners 😄

Hi Guys

Here is an update of Day 1 scores including bonuses for wickets / 50's etc.
Not going to do this everyday but I thought I would do it this time so that you can check your scores and let me know if you think any are wrong
(it will help me to know I've set the formulae correctly on the spreadsheet)

Also if a substitute fielder takes a catch , he will get the 10 ponts (Ta for the pm Jake)

First time I have done this comp so bear with me but I think my score is wrong...

Cook - 3 catches = 30 points
Bell - 2 catches = 20
Broad - 5 wickets (125) bonus (50) 3 maidens (9) = 184
Anderson - 2 wickets (50) 5 maidens (15) = 65
Clarke - 1 run = 1
Warner - 49 runs = 49
Watson - 22 runs = 22
Haddin - 78 runs (78) bonus (25) = 103

30+20+184+65+1+49+22+103 = 474

Have I worked it out right or have you

Hi - I don't think the two wicket maidens that Broad bowled has been included in my score. I seem to be exactly 40 points light.

Thanks for organising this by the way.

Don't want to tread on anybody's toes, but I think you've scored many more than that:

Cook - 3 catches = 30 points
Bell - 2 catches = 20
Broad - 5 wickets (125) bonus (25 3 wickets) bonus (50 5 wickets) 2 wicket maidens (40) 3 maidens (9) = 249Anderson - 2 wickets (50) 1 wicket maiden (20) 5 maidens (15) = 85
Clarke - 1 run = 1
Warner - 49 runs = 49
Watson - 22 runs = 22
Haddin - 78 runs (78) bonus (25) = 103

30+20+249+85+1+49+22+103 = 559

That's my interpretation but might not be correct.
