Cw July : Knockouts + Tours

After a month of riveting One Day action in the CWC, it's time for teams to once again go back and grind out em results in tours.

We will start with T20 Knockout Cup and after that tours.
Each tour will be a bilateral. All the teams are allowed to choose their opponents for the tours and inform me regarding the formats you want the tours played in after which the CW Managing Committee will allot fixtures.

CWSim v3.0 - A New Beginning
After 3 successful months, a change sure was imminent. So here we are.. Presenting you the Sign of Three

How's CwSim3 different?
Well, for starters, we will be having 3 different databases, one for each format.
This will mean a test player will not have 10 skills in T20s while a T20 specialist surely will not grind it out in the test arena.
Sounds fun?

Watch out for the next updates regarding CwSim3

Player Ratings

Well now that 3 databases have been brought in, why not make changes in player ratings too?

The new player ratings will be based on their ICC Rankings, thus effectively connecting the Virtual and Real Cricket Worlds.
In-form in the Real arena? He'll be on top in CwSim too!

The Ratings will be as follows :

Rank 1-4 : 10 skilled
Rank 5-15 : 9 skilled
Rank 16-40 : 8 skilled
Rank 41-80 : 7 skilled
Rank 81-100 : 6 skilled
100 or below : 5 skilled

Note : For all-rounders, their individual batting and bowling skills will be based on their ranking for either.

I.e If a player XY is ranked 11 in batting and 4 in bowling, His batting skills will be 9 and bowling will 10. All-Rounder rankings will not be considered

F Player Skills

Now that International player ratings have been taken care of, time to switch to the most important ones, the Fantasy Players.

F players will now have to divide their skills between three formats.

The Overhaul

Auctions
After so many changes to the way CwSim will be played, isn't it right to change the way teams are now?

Gather up cuz it's auction time!

Each team will be using the money in their Fantasy Bank right now along with an excess 20 crores given by our very generous sponsors.

Minimum Players required : 11
Maximum Players : No Limit

Retention and RTM
It has taken 3 months of hard work from all teams to come up with the perfect team. It's only fair that we allow teams to retain their team's key player.

Each team will be allowed to retain one player (Player ratings will be released in a few minutes)

In addition to the retention, we have also provided each team one "Right to Match" card.

How does RTM work?
In short, Each team can use this card to buy one ex player of their team at the same price as their selling price.

For example, If Shadows bid 10cr on Virat Kohli and it turns out to be the winning bid, Roaring Warriors can use RTM and buy Virat for the same 10cr.

AUCTION IS FOR INTERNATIONAL PLAYERS ONLY
F PLAYERS ARE RETAINED ALREADY

Regions

Are regions just for resemblances? Nopedy Nope

Each region will have a very important role to play here on.

Domestic Star
Each country sure has that one player who always fires in the domestic circuit but has failed to make the cut for the national team.

Now, you will be able to pick one such player and make a crucial addition to your CwSim team.

Criteria :
Played less than 5 International innings for their country.
Played at least 50 innings for their domestic team.
Must have played in last 12 months.
Skill rating will be counted only if they have at least 10 innings in that format and his DOMESTIC STATS will be considered.

Increment System for International Players will remain same except that if he scores 100 in ODI, he will get +2 only in ODI.

Teams will get additional 20 Crores to spend for rebuilding their team and they are also allowed to use their previous savings but remember, its important to save them for future because you have to handle contracts.

Contract System is still the same ie. International Contract will be decided based on skills but the amount will be Highest Skill*10000 Rs. per week.

For example, if a player has ratings 3|8 in Test, 2|10 in ODs and 5|10 in T20s,
his contract will be of 150,000 per week because he has 15 skills in total which is highest.

Contracts will change based on his change in rankings/skills but contract won't be affected by his increments.

The System used for Change in F Player Skills/Role will remain same like it was before. The system which we used for CWC will be used again.

It's always important to work hard on training so that we improve our skills everyday to give much better performance on field. Therefore every time,
there is increase in skill point, you have to post in a different thread so that everyone is aware of that and necessary changes can be done

Also you will not be allowed to reshuffle skill points in future ie. it will remain fixed forever (until some major changes come in future). For example, Nik have 19 skills and he opt for 0|0 9|0 10|0 skills. This will remain as his base skills forever. Everytime he will get +1 increment or his skills increase to 20, he can add that 1 in any of the three format like 1|0 9|0 10|0 or 0|0 10|0 10|0. He won't be allowed to reshuffle his skill points in future.

Also players will have same special skill for all 3 formats.
