Super Over challenge

Post by brmtaylor.com admin »

A few people missed out on the competition during the WI series, so I've been trying to think of a new one we can do for those who couldn't participate.

I'm thinking the SUPER OVER CHALLENGE.
The super over, for those that aren't familiar, is used as a tie breaker in limited overs games. So you'd typically pick batsmen who are big hitters and can start scoring runs straight away. And your bowler would typically be the person who you think can be most economical or you think could take 2 quick wickets.

The first 8 people to reply confirming their interest can participate (remember this is for the people who missed out on the last competition). Then we'll all vote on the winning combination. PLEASE SEND ME YOUR COMBINATION IN A PRIVATE MESSAGE.


The rules:

- Nominate 3 batsmen
- Nominate 1 bowler
- Eligible players are anyone who has played in a T20I or ODI for Zimbabwe since August 8, 2011

Black Mamba - please send it to me in a private message. Like the last comp, it'll be anonymous and then we'll run a poll to vote on the winner at the end.
