Matthews ruled out of the tri series.

For the special card, we only look at the batting score.

So say between Chandimal and Mashrafe.

I select as my luck card: Mashrafe [BT:10] - I predict mash to score 10 runs.

If he scores 15 runs, because the difference is 5, I will get +30 points.

if he scores 25 runs, because the difference is 15, I will get - 5 points.

I am in with one condition: Instead of a captain for bonus, make it open. Let us chose anyone from the lineup and predict the score.

It’s called the ‘Lucky Card’. You chose one of the captains from the two teams.

How does the Lucky card work? Example below: My Combination: BD/SL

Tamim [BT]
Shakib [BW]

The two captains: Mashrafe [BD] and Chandimal [SL]

My Lucky card: I select Chandimal [BT:20] (I predict Chandimal to score 20 runs)
Chandimal in real match scores 15 runs. Here is the point scoring based on Predicted - actual score.

Scoring rules: difference

If Chandimal score is 0 to 5 runs short of your prediction = You get + 30 points
6 to 10 runs = +15 points
11 to 20 runs = - 5 points
21+ runs = -10 points.

So: Shakib [20] - Tamim [10] = 10 points from your combination.
Plus: Lucky Card: Chandimal scores you +30 points.

Your total = Combination score [+10] + [+30] = 40 points [Your Final total]

Let me know what you think of this.

Yes. Only looking at batting for the special lucky card.
The rest remains normal, your combination selection and point scoring.

I want to avoid this. The lucky card is like a bonus, so I want to make sure competitors get the bonus points.

The captains of both teams are definitive starters, hence there is high chance that both competitors will score points, be it positive or negative.

However, if I leave it open, and you chose from the list, there is chance that your selection will not start. I want to avoid this.

And that would be on me. Totally fair. Allow me to get Tamim or Shakib or whomever. It is just a prediction. I take the risk. One doesn't have to predict. It is for the bonus (positive or negative points)

[Tigers_eye]

now MHRAM has a say as well for this game.

[SportingBD]

THE LUCKY CARD RULE: (Proposed)

Predicted - Actual Score (BT):

Difference (Predicted - Actual)	Points
0 to 5 runs difference from predicted (BT) runs	30
6 to 10 runs difference from predicted (BT) runs	15
11 to 20 runs difference from predicted (BT) runs	-5
21 runs+ difference from predicted (BT) runs	-10

Post #3 has been updated.

List of Knockout Champion moved to post #4.

If MHRAM agrees, I have no disagreement with your suggestion.

The suggestion being that everyone should be allowed to choose anyone from the list and predict their batting score for the bonus points.

However, if not we can use this for future games.

Let's use it for future games?

Good luck!

Now we wait for the Accountant

Deadline is tomorrow! 26th. Wrote 28th on PM by mistake.

[SportingBD]

I have extended the deadline, as tigers_eye might be busy with personal life.

I will wait for him to submit combination, 1 hour before the match starts.

Hopefully, if he submits it today, it would be nice!

[SportingBD]

IF Tigers_eye fail to submit his picks one hour before the deadline, MHRAM will win the tournament.

The reason would be that Tigers_eye has forfeited the match.

Still waiting, hopefully TE can send in the pick before match starts.

[SportingBD]

No sign of Tigers_eye. Very unfortunate!

Hoping he can submit before the match starts.

I have a better idea, if he doesn't submit. Just pick me to vs MHRAM, at least we will get a game

[SportingBD]

Breakings News:

MHRAM wins the 2018 BD Tri-series tournament!

Congrats.

Tigers_eye has forfeited the match.
