Rules and Playing Conditions

The basic rules of the SNSS Game are simple. You need to select a team of 11 players. These players will score points for you based on the amount of runs they score, wickets they take and stumpings and catches they manage during the tournament. They may also score bonus points or suffer penalty points depending upon their scoring rates as batsmen and their economy rates as bowlers. Entering and selecting a team takes only a few minutes.

You must select a team of 11 players. Your selected squad must conform to the following format:

• 5 Batsmen
• 1 Wicketkeeper
• 1 All-Rounders
• 4 Bowlers
