Please ensure you register with a valid email ID (as this is used for all communications with you) and residential address (as this is where all prizes will be sent to). Always remember your email ID and password, as this will be used to login and manage your teams.
Build Team:
Three teams can be created per log-in ID.
Users who activate multiple log-in IDs will be disqualified.
Format :
This Super Selector Game is divided into two parts The India South Africa (Stage 1) and the Indian Premier League (which has Stage 2 and 3). The Leader Board will be decided on each stage. Please refer to the format at the end of the note under heading-Detailed Format for Super Selector.
Team Selections
In Super Selector, you have to select 11 players from the following categories:
1. 6 x Batsmen
2. 4 x Bowlers
3. 1 x Wicket-keeper
4. Selection of a Captain is a must
5. Each player has a rating.The higher the rating, the higher the ranking of the batsman. You have 1000 points and must select players within that rating budget. The player rating is provided by ESPN Star Sports.
6. You have to select one player as your team captain. The points he earns (not including bonus points) will be doubled, so you need to make your selection carefully.
7. You cannot select the same player in more than one category within your team. Eg. You can't have MS Dhoni as a batsman and as a wicket-keeper in your team. It has to be one or the other, but not both.
8. Substitution during the India-South Africa series will be allowed at the end of each match. For test match it will be at the end of the complete 5 days. The game will be locked at 30 Minutes before the start of the new match, for each match day. After this time your changes will be active for the following day. Substitutions for the Indian Premier League Twenty20 matches will be allowed upto one hour before the match starts. After this time your changes will be active for the following match.
Scoring Points
Each cricket player scores points according to their performance on the field for any particular match day as a batsman, bowler, fielder or wicket keeper.
Super Selector player points are scored as follows:
- 1 point per run scored
- 25 points per wicket taken
- 5 points per catch held by fielder other than Wicket Keeper
- 10 points per Wicket-Keeper dismissal (Catch or stumping)
- 5 points per run-out (All fielders including Wicket Keepers)
- -5 (negative five) points for players who are out for a duck (0)
Bonus points are now available for the following
- 5 points for players who get a three-wicket haul.
- 10 points for players who get a five-wicket haul
- 5 points for players who get a half-century
- 10 points for players who get a century
- -5 (negative five) points if your captain does not play
Points for Wicket-Keeper dismissals are awarded to the player "wearing the gloves" at the time of the dismissal. Substitute players who effect catches, stumping or run-outs will score appropriate points for each dismissal.
All player categories can score points for all actions. i.e. it's not just designated batsmen who score points for runs. For example, in a Test match between India and South Africa, MS Dhoni scores 59 runs, takes 2 catches and 3 run-outs, he amasses a total of 168 points as broken-down below.
- 59 points for 59 runs
- 10 points for two catches
- 15 points for three run-outs
- 5 bonus points for a half century
- 9 weekly games in two parts India South Africa Test series (Stage 1) and Indian Premier League. (Stage 2 and 3). Stage 2 includes the 4th, 5th and 6th weekly games. Stage 3 includes 7th, 8th and 9th weekly games.
