Same eleven names, different multiplier bands, rooms-apart results. The logic, in one page.
The hierarchy
Bats in the first four AND bowls full quota — two income streams under the 2x. The default C when available.
Most balls faced on a batting deck. VC floor, C ceiling on flat venues.
Wickets cluster at the death; 25-point events under a multiplier. Underowned in big fields.
Runs + catches + stumpings quietly stack. The sneaky VC in spin conditions.
May face 8 balls or 40. Variance is the multiplier's enemy outside megas.
By room type
| Room | C/VC posture |
|---|---|
| Head-to-head | Maximum stability — the chalk band wins the lane. |
| Small league | Stable C, one informed VC differential. |
| Mega | Low-ownership conviction picks — chalk bands can't climb thousands. |
Full room economics in the contest guide; the scoring math behind it in the points table.
Toss first, multipliers second, room last — in that order.
