Welcome to another season of Fantasy League. Here is your chance to win £50 hard cash simply by picking seven players and watching them perform over the course of the season. Again, to aid your decision making, we have included brief descriptions of each player to remind you of his skills! It couldn't be easier - so get picking!!

The rules are very much the same as for every year, but here they are again in case you've forgotten:

Players begin earning points from the first league match. Teams entered before the beginning of play on Saturday 13th May will score points from the 29th April. Teams entered after this date will only begin to earn points from matches less than two weeks previous to the hand in date.

Points are scored as follows:
1 point per run
15 points per wicket
10 points per catch
15 points per stumping
10 bonus points for 50 runs in an innings
30 bonus points for 100 runs in an innings

Rogesh will be looking to return to the top of the league batting averages this season. Failing that he will certainly win the 'greyest hair' and 'stupidest run' competition. Ears also still a problem.
Will he go the whole season with out hitting the ball on the off-side? Unlikely to take orders from anyone - may have to as new 2nd team vice captain (see Gunn, Dave)
Possibly available throughout the season, 'Stupid' is an excellent puller of the ball. A shot which is surplus to requirements when playing at The Nook
Played in every game in 1999, so sure to offer value for money. Mind you, he won't get any bowling points!
Tall, big-hitting hero. Outstanding indoor season bodes well for a promising outdoor season
Very solid batsman with infectious enthusiasm for the game, Mr Ben could be a very important figure in 2000. Developing into a true 'Old Boy'
Solid opening batsman and aggressive fielder. Consistently amongst the runs, should prove to be a sound investment.
Class act. Club captain for 2000. Hopefully new responsibility will not affect his form after a marvellous 1999.
Destructive, powerful batsman. Some would say slogger. Performed admirably on tour in Spain in '99.
Very productive 1999 season. Anchor of the Old Boys batting line up . Some might argue that in his present condition this is not the only thing he could anchor!
If he ever plays again, we can guarantee that whatever he scores will be divisible by 6!
Natural swinger of the ball, if he can avoid demolishing the stumps on his approach to the wicket. Big-hitting batsman
Daniel is a 100 percenter which almost makes up for his lack of co-ordination and ability. As 1st team vice captain, he could be a key player.
Progressed from a batsman into an all-rounder since last season, Galvo aims to repeat last year?s 50. Good form should see him make 65.?for the season!
Hides his enthusiasm very well. The rumours around the Nook are that 2000 will be Ben's year.
Solid yet elegant batsman and flowering off-spinner. New 2nd team captain, may have to keep a tight rein on his new vice! (see Cook, Nigel)
Developing Batsman / Bowler / Wicket-Keeper with potential to be 2nd team regular in 2000.
Recovered from close season shoulder injury sustained facing a fiery onslaught in the nets (see Pratley Sam) to take many prized scalps at pre-season nets.
Off-spinning all-rounder with big smile and even bigger 'Rogesh Bailey style' ears.
Classy Lancastrian batsman who will be hoping he can recreate his magic 80 from last season more often. Cool as the proverbial cucumber.
Providing he stays off the 'shlandy', 2000 should be a big year for Duns.
Last seen playing rugby and claiming never to play cricket again. We'll see!
Useful seamer with the deadliest slower ball around. Batting more akin to rounders.
Steady seam bowler. Usually naked or smitten or both. (see Lund, Daniel)
The future of English cricket, Andy is a left-arm spinner who actually turns it! (see Hague, Keith)
Took a number of vital wickets last season, complete rabbit with the bat!
Close season Rogesh Bailey signing, Paul has taken a while to progress from junior cricket into the senior game, but better late than never!
El Presidente, Dave is a left arm spinner who would turn it miles - if only the ball had enough pace to reach the other end of the wicket!
Legendary left-arm spinner who takes stacks of wickets without needing to turn it! (see Daynes, Andy)
Leading wicket taker in 1999. He is to second team bowling what Chez is to the first team batting (see Stanfield, Mark).
2nd half of the 'naked' Old boys (see Collard, Luke) solid bat and useful bowler.
Seasoned campaigner with great record. Not fussy. Takes on all comers. Will succeed when all around him fail. Great stamina. Seems to become more interested against the weaker sides. Old Boys star turn and absolute steal at £15M
Sharpish medium paced bowler who has severely endangered his own toes with his bowling in the nets!
Big in-swing bowler who is also a useful batsman. Could be a key man both on and off the field this year.
Steady is the word for Big Col. A natural swinger with good line and extremely good length.
Now he has been relieved of the burden of 2nd team captaincy, will it mean his batting can become more carefree and extravagant?!
Explosive bat, tidy keeper and tricky bowler who developed a useful bouncer at pre-season nets (see Martin, Michael)
Scared of showing himself up on his return to the club, he arranged to have his ankle smashed playing football. Once fit though, he'll do OK!
