Countdown to the best batting lineup

    I've finished the batting side of the database and I've been playing around with lots of stats and formulas today, so I thought I'd do something "fun" with and count down from 22 to 1, the best batting lineups statistically.

    One thing I will say is that if you're ranked lowly here you shouldn't change your first XI and bring in reserves thinking you're a genius and that I've given away that your starting side is wrong - because it's based on each team's statistically best top seven (plus their four nominated bowlers) given their their whole squad. Not the first elevens people have posted. Changing your first eleven will have 0 effect. :p

    Anyway, every few minutes I'll post the next team up.

    So there could be 2 keepers in the team if there batting is awesome?
     
  3. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Promising.
     
  4. Hunter AD Hunt

    Seems pretty cool. Assuming you'd be doing a similar thing for bowling but like top 6?

    Hoping to be in the top 5 tbh.

    Hoping my 4 internationals keep me up top.

    Poor Veri :laugh:
     
  13. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Aren't you going to show their top 6 batsman?

    Interesting. This is for the best batting rated balanced XI, or best batting rated top 6?

    I think Fung and I have got a very strong XI from a batting point of view, but the top six less so.

    EDIT: Ignore me. Read the ****ing Opening Post. Think we'll be mid-table from a top seven PoV.

    It doesn't want a bar of showing the batsman me thinks.
     
  17. Hunter AD Hunt

    Defeats the purpose of the owner being the selector.
     
  18. Cribbage RG Cribb

    I'd really like to rate the elevens instead, but people would react and change their elevens if I did that. Don't want to give too much way and make it unrealistic.
     
  19. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Nah, would make the whole thing shit if I told everyone who their best 7 batsmen were.
     
  20. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Allrounders etc etc
