Alright, so we're back to slow and sluggish pitches where scoring is hard — No Jumbos and no Bingos yet again! No we never moved to a high scoring grounds!

But please let me make one rule quite clear that from now on ..

You've to make your picks before the first ball is bowled for the first match
In case you miss the deadline for the first match, you can still pick for other matches, that too strictly before the first ball is bowled for any match/matches.

And yeah obviously, I've a plan to implement it, so don't bother picking after the first ball is bowled for any match.

I understand some might argue that in Cricket often initial overs for the first innings don't impact the final results but I think for the credibility and fairness of the pool, this rule needs to be implemented in full force.

With that being notified, @suraz is still leading with many of us are following him closely. However this month seems over for @Coinsreporter whose poor form has just settled upon him.

Best of Luck everyone! 🤞
