Bit disappointed that they are not updating the team scores as we go. Can't be beyond possibility to do this can it?

I assume they will be updated at close of play?

Not done yet? Surely they will soon?

 

[Giraffe]

Just checked the FAQ's

When are the scores updated?
Player and team scores on the website will be updated by 12:00 BST the day after each Test Match has been completed.

Crap. Why can't they do live, or at least daily??

I will be surprised if Slade's Wig Maker gets many points in this Test.... he only has 7 players involved !

 

[Mendoza]

Two half centuries and 4 wickets to my team after todays play

 

[vegster]

I'm hotting up ! got scores from Strauss, Prior,KP,Swann Johnson ended with 3 wickets and although Hughes failed for me, Ponting and Katich are shining bright !

 

[Giraffe]

I reckon I'm on 278 after the second days play. My son is nearer 350.

Must confess I only realised last night that the bowlers lose points for the runs they concede. Unless it's a low scoring test that makes it almost worthwhile picking bowlers who aren't playing!!

 

[CHAPPERS]

When was the deadline for picking your team? I've got Stuart Clarke in mine, could I have transferred him out before the start of play?

 

[vegster]

I'm on 350 ish give or take a couple...its painfull if your bowlers are not taking.. Glad I have not got Monty.. I fear he will only clean up a few tailenders ( 25 points as opposed to 50 for batsmen) and go for over a hundred. he won't add much catching or batting either !

yes you could have

Before the start of the first test unlimited transfers were allowed, but in between each test it is restricted to four.

Problem is he has gone for a lot of runs, so his points are minimal.

He has taken three wickets, but two were bowlers, so only 100 points, and he lost most of those because he has conceded so many runs.

 

[MattBackHome]

Reckon I'm just shy of 300. Not bad as I know absolutely ZERO about cricket.

 

[Mendoza]

I think Ive got about 400 points at a quick look

Ton for Ponting, Runs for Prior, Pietersen, wickets for Hilfenhaus, Johnson and Flintoff, catches from Hughes, Ponting and Prior.

Are you deducting the runs conceded by the bowlers?

I got 376 in runs after deduction of wickets, Bowlers have taken 6 wickets and fielders have 3 catches to their names.

406 ish points for me

I'm racking 'em up, I have Katich and Ponting with Clarke to come !

 

[CHAPPERS]

If I had not bottled keeping Hauritz in for Clark I'd have a silly amount of points.
