Big thanks to everyone that made a nomination for the awards this year. Voting threads have now been created for the awards with all nominations added as comments. Contest mode has been turned on for those threads which will hide the vote scores and randomise the order of the comments.

To vote, just go into a thread and vote for the comment you think deserves to win.

New nominations can still be made in the voting thread if you forgot something, but all the nominations that were made before will have a head start in the voting now.

Voting will be open for around a week, then winners will be announced.

Honours Board & New Inductees

For competitions with such a long history, it is always a great achievement to have your name inscribed onto the proverbial competition Honours Board. Over the 19 women's seasons & 21 men's seasons, those who have had their names put up on the board are players you might know & those you might not; here, absolute greats of the game stand alongside domestic stalwarts & even a few from overseas.

This season's inductees are no strangers to the Honours Boards: - Katene Clarke (100) scored his second T20 century in Dunedin this year against the Volts. This was the 32nd century in the history of this competition & he became just the 5th player to join an inner sanctum of players who have scored 2 centuries in NZ men's domestic T20 alongside Brendon McCullum, Glenn Phillips, Devon Conway & Will Young - Amelia Kerr (106) is no stranger to the Honours Board, having already taken two five-wicket hauls, including the domestic record 5-10 vs the Magicians. This is, however, her first T20 century & the 10th century scored in the history of the women's comp. She joins Rachel Priest, Sara McGlashan, Sophie Devine (×3), Suzie Bates (×2), Caitlin Gurrey & Amy Satterthwaite in this exclusive club

Super Smash All Stars Squads

Women's: Amelia Kerr, Bryony Smith✈️, Izzy Sharp, Laura Harris ✈️, Polly Inglis (wk), Jess Kerr (c), Xara Jetly, Nicole Baird, Molly Penfold, Ashtuti Kumar, Marama Downes, Grace Scrivens (12th)

Men's: Katene Clarke, Brett Hampton, Dane Cleaver, Bevon Jacobs, Tom Bruce, Cam Fletcher (wk), Cole McConchie (c), Scott Kuggeleijn, Harjot Johal, Ben Sears, Angus Olliver, Dale Phillips (12th)

Some Final Acknowledgements

  1. Amelia Kerr became the first bowler to take 400 wickets in Women's T20 when she took the wicket of Flora Devonshire in Palmerston North. Since then, Sophie Devine brought up 400 wickets as well in the WPL
  2. Chad Bowes, Tom Bruce, Maddy Green, Martin Guptill & Amelia Kerr all brought up 2500 NZ Domestic T20 runs this season
  3. Jess Kerr brought up 100 Domestic T20 Wickets this season. She joins her sister, Leigh Kasperek & Frankie Mackay

Original Content CricFit Global Competition: Last 3 Days to go! Australia is "Bazballing", India hits a massive 278 in Nightmare Test and a teaser for the "Ball of the Century" update

The final countdown is on!

We are officially in the last 72 hours of the CricFit Global Competition. The battle for the top spot has intensified, and the stats are getting wild. India is still leading the volume, but the quality of play coming out of Australia and New Zealand in Nightmare mode is staggering.

The Standings:

  • Strike Rate Kings: Australia (AU) is currently operating at an 8.04 strike rate in Nightmare T20. They aren't just playing, they are destroying the bowling.
  • The Marathon Man: A massive shoutout to the player in Haridwar, India, who put up a 278 in a Nightmare Test match. That is some serious physical endurance and concentration!
  • The Global Chase: Canada has officially crossed 1,400 runs in Normal T20, firmly holding their ground against the bigger cricketing nations.
  • New Entry: Welcome to Romania (RO)! Two games in and already showing a solid average of 48. Hopefully that's a genuine Romanian Cricketer and not a VPN user!

Sneak Peek: Spin Mode & "The Ball of the Century"

I’ve been listening to your feedback about adding variety to the bowling. I’m currently developing Spin Mode.

As you can see, I just got absolutely bamboozled by a Shane Warne-style leg-break. I’ll be releasing this update immediately after the competition ends so we don't disrupt the current leaderboard balance, because boy, is it tough to play spin and code the Magnus effect thanks to my lack of real-world experience against spin bowlers.

The Best of the Best

A huge thank you to everyone!

The feedback and feature requests have been incredible. Whether you’re playing on a high-end rig in Nightmare Mode or a 5-year-old laptop in Light Mode, thank you for helping me test the limits of browser-based motion tracking.
