Re: Draft 4: World Test XI
I would much prefer to do this without any statistical shenanigans or competition; just to see who everyone's favourites are.

The stats will be a wholly separate thread then.

It would be good if there was a decent cricket game available where we could simulate the matches

Re: Draft 4: World Test XI
I've been trying to find one for the last three weeks. If I still had my Xbox, I would have been able to do it on Don Bradman.
Might see how much the game is for PC and can try that option. I had this idea in mind where we could have a few of us create teams by bidding for players and so on and then have a league which is wholly simulated by the game.
Eventually if we have enough guys on the forum, we would have 2 leagues with a promotion and relegation.
We did it on a football forum I was on for a few years and it was heaps of fun.

Re: Draft 4: World Test XI
Would be quite cool, but I'm not paying 50USD for the game. I would have definitely if i hadn't sold my xbox and had the game.
Am trying to look for other options. Hopefully I can find something.
If i knew how to code and stuff, I'd create my own programme.

Re: Draft 4: World Test XI
I've got a way to simulate the matches!
I also have Don Bradman cricket, but I don't trust a video game simulation.

If anyone can think of a set of rules they want programmed, I don't mind putting something together.zimbos_05 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 14, 2020 12:03 pmWould be quite cool, but I'm not paying 50USD for the game. I would have definitely if i hadn't sold my xbox and had the game.

Basically imagine, there's a CSV/Excel file with a series of data (like player names, runs, average, stuff like that) which is read by the program ... [something happens] ... it spits out an updated CSV/Excel file.
If anyone has thoughts for the [something happens] part maybe we can bring it to life?
