That would avoid most of the controversy surrounding weird over/wicket counts, particularly in the latter stages of a tournament.
My other suggestion, which could tie into the first, would be to use the scorelines we have right now, but make it clear that if both RPers feel as though the wicket counts require adjusting (and over counts in knockout matches, or in games where NRR is not a factor), then with host approval, they may change the required values to a more suitable number? The main issue with this would be if you're playing a completely or relatively inactive nation, but then I guess hosts could grant an exception depending on circumstance?

One thing I noticed when putting my roster together was how rusty I was at some of the details on certain players, as it had been such a long time since the last ODI World Cup. I understand that we're not going to have any speeding up on the cycle as people have other sports to focus on and the last thing we want is burnout, but I was wondering if there would be any appetite for a 'Bilateral Tours' thread in a similar vein to the football friendly thread. RPing would be optional, and it would allow us to put more flesh on the bones of our national sides (and indeed, tour matches against domestic opponents or even youth/a team tours) outside of the flagship GCF events.
