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 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.

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 one-day international between India and Australia, Robin Uthappa 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

If he was selected as your captain he would score 173 points [2x(59+10+15)+5] as bonus points are not doubled.
