Registering a team?

To register your team for a particular game click in front of the game and you will be taken to the register a team page. You as a manager start of with Rs1,400,000/. This money can be used to buy players for the available spots.

For an ODI team you are to buy
=>5 Batsmen
=>2 Allrounders
=>1 Wicketkeeper
=>3 Bowlers
For a Test team you are to buy
=>5 Batsmen
=>1 Allrounders
=>1 Wicketkeeper
=>4 Bowlers

For both the teams you are also supposed to choose a captain. It should be noted that captain will earn double the points and also double the penalties so a tip would be to choose a captain who bowls and bats so as to get maximum points with him.

Players are usually priced in three categories though variation in number of categories can be expected from time to time. The players are priced according to their recent form and ability.

Before submitting your team be sure to select a suitable name for your team.
