Some Days ago i found a nice cool time pass option in the internet. Its a website where you can act as the manager/owner/coach of a cricket team. All you have to do is create an account and start! The website is -- http://www.cricketfantasies.com/ . Its an extremely interesting fantasy game. Currently fantasy games for the IPL 2009 are on.
There are two stages for this . First stage is Bidding for the players and the second stage is picking up playing 11 for each round of matches. The overall concept or story is as follows - Leagues are created containing 8 teams. So after u create an account u will be randomly placed in one of the leagues.U will also be give 2 million fantasy dollars to bid on the players. After u are placed in one league u have to bid for players. U have to compete with only rest of the 7 teams in ur league. U have to bid for players like its done in the real IPL! Each player has a starting bid price. U have to bid 1.1 times the current highest bid for a player. For example - Suppose current price for Mathew Hayden is 1000$ , then u will have to bid for 1100$. This bidding process continues till the closing time for Auctioning. U will get the players for which u have won the bids. This is just like Auctioning for real IPL. This whole process is extremely interesting. U have to pick some players and leave some players. This gives u the opportunity to be the mallays , ambanis.
After getting ur 15 players u have to select the playing 11 for each round . The nth round is the time period in which all the teams play their nth matches. After u select the playing 11 points will be allocated to ur players based on their performances in the real IPL matches. So u have to continously change ur playing 11 for different rounds based on the performance of the players on field. Also during the fantasy rounds the left over players(for who nobody bidded in the auctioning) will be available in the bazar. So u can also buy players from bazar during the matches. Also u can sell ur current players by putting them in the bazzar.
Unfortunately u can no longer participate in these fantasy games for the IPL . But these games will continue for various event and the next event is T20 world cup. Looking for ur participation in the T20 world cup. Its a nice time pass option specially after the exams are over!
And one more important thing -- The top three teams(With the highest points) walk away with cool prizes like PS3 ,Nintendo wii , X-BOX and lots of cash!
