On a second thought I got what you are trying to say that to do this we will need to calculate those points manually as the automated system won't support it right??

That is correct. Automated system allows only one entry and based on the entry points will be awarded to the prediction game players in each category.

Cheers..

Chose a subcategory that is common and applies to runs, wickets, 4 s and 6 s.


e.g. give points to the player whose name comes alphabetically first. Just an example.

Or senior age wise etc .

I think it will be interesting if it can be decided by the % of runs the player has scored out of the total runs. Whose % is higher he might be given the edge.

Also there is a very little chance that even the % of runs will match.

If a batsman has scored 70 runs out of team total of 100.

If a batsman has scored 75 runs out of team total of 100.

The 75% player could be the winner.

Thanks for your suggestion.

Here the issue is two batsmen scoring (let us say) 70 runs each with the same strike rate.

Your solution works if they are from two different teams and one lost the match by x number of runs. In that case batsman from the losing team will become the winner because he made more percentage of runs out of his team total.

But if they both are from the same team, then the percentage of runs scored out of the team's total will be the same for both players.

What you have explained is one of the factors which determines the impact and cricinfo nicely tables impact of each player in each match. We can use that as a guide (option one) to break the tie.

Cheers.

That means if players have hit same no of 4 s with same strike rate, then the one who scored more total runs will get points.

For wickets if we chose dot balls it's ok but if one has bowled lesser overs also is it okay?

We should give to Prasidh as he has bowled 12 dot balls. But what if dot balls are also same?

Here Rashid had only 1 dot ball less.

What if they were the same?

We can also the possibility -

If both batters have made 50 then who made it faster in less balls (e.g. Kohli, slow khelke 50 banayega phir baad mein SR badhayega..that is his style most of the time. It can be according to team need that time) but this can be consider

We all know this tie-breaker thing can't happen in every second or third match.

If I selected Prasidh, then I'm okay if Rashid's name was written in the system after the match.

I care about my 50 points, which should be added to my grand total regardless of whose name is written in the system.

They changed Rashid to Sakariya, which means the system allows updating the grand total of the members too.

Hi Sunshine,

As a supporting team we try to resolve issues amicably. In a scheme of things we do face hiccups occasionally. This is one of them.

While updating scores the system allows if the entry is left blank.

But, once a name is selected, it can not be removed. When we made a decision not to award points to either Prasidh or Rashid, whichever name was already selected could not be removed. So, Sakariya's name was added intentionally to make the entry null and void. Members who have predicted Rashid or Prasidh may have noticed 50 point change in their totals for that match. Madhu already shared this issue with members via a DT note.

Rest assured, there won't be any change in individual points of every other match and grand totals of each member.

Cheers..

Prizi that will remain the same.

We r only discussing if 2 players have same no of 4 s and same strike rate.

Then who will get points.
