This is the new NationStates Cricket Board (NSCB) after the announcement today to effectively end the INSCC World cup.

All nations can sign up to join by sending me a TG or leave a message on the forum.

The first new world cup will draw take place on 16th January and the tournament will start for real.

Players will have to be selected in Categories...
Batting-Openers, Mid-order, Low order or Tailenders;
Bowlers-Fast (F), Med fast (MF), Medium(M), spinner (S) or Wicket Keeper(Wkt).

A 22 man squad may be selected with at least 2 from each batting category and 1 from each bowling category.

Below is my team

Name Age Type Star Bowling

Euan Wilson 13 Opener Y S
Chris Stewart 14 Mid Order M
Ben Maxwell 14 Opener Y Wkt
Daniel Johnston (Cpt) 15 Opener Y S
Jack Pool 14 Low Order

Alasdair Wilson 15 Low Order MF
Lee Maxwell 16 Mid Order MF
Darren Scott 17 Tail F

Why does it take so many people to catch a cricket in a cup?

In Texas, my dog catches crickets all by himself. You need a dog.

you're RPing cricket?

Well, I never was a good speller

Well Willey was a slogger and Holding was frightingly quick so it would have been good to watch anyway.

sounds interesting but I dont see how a 10 year old can be concidered as a player?!

The 10 year old is a reserve, he is a bright star for the future and has already won young player of the year in Danieljoh

All teams that are wishing to enter have to have entered before the 16th of January and the draw will be made at 7pm (GMT)

There are also a spot for hosts. At least 4 stadiums have to be developed in time for the first round of matches on the 19th Jan.

Good luck

Pirates don't have dogs. :rolleyes:

Hint: May have been better to do this in NationStates. Less spam.

The Street signs up, though. Squad to come at some later time.

It wasn't. Peter Willey got himself out rather quickly and playing defensively at that. (If I remember correctly. I did actually watch that broadcast.)

Venue Capacity Main Matches

Castleholm 12'500 Final
Scholars 8'000 Semi-Final 1

Thanx

Only four Aussies? come on mate

There's nothing wrong with aussies, exept if you play against them.

Anyway, follow the link on msg 1 for the draw. All the info you need is there.

The draw is being moved to the 23rd due to the lack of nations involved although there is the possibility of a triangular series with me, Findecando Calaelen and Monkeypimp on Monday 17th

Visit the Results/fixtures page via the link on msg 1 for the proposed dates and times

Only four Aussies? come on mate

Heh, there was nearly only 3. A better question would have been 'why are there no sri lankan's?' and I'm not too sure. Maybe Jayas could replace Sehwag, or Vaas could replace Pollock or Ahktah.


Btw, I don't actually intend on RPing cricket...

A better Question should be wheres the english?

Anyway, all players will have to be selected in Categories...
Batting-Openers, Mid-order, Low order or Tailenders;
Bowlers-Fast (F), Med fast (MF), Medium(M), spinner (S) or Wicket Keeper(Wkt).

Subs are also allowed as there may be injuries (hint)

Anyway if you think Aussies are so good, why dont you make an all austrailian team, Findecano Calaelen, to see how far they get. You dont have to RP and you never know, you might just do well.
