No

Sort of - but each player in the side receives the boost.

Not directly. They will take more risks though if they are falling behind the RRR.

If a team is massively outrated, they are quite likely to lose heavily.

I was wondering whether bowlers always perform at their exact skill level (modified by form, experience etc) for each match, or whether their is a 'match day' modifier or perhaps a 'bowling spell' modifier that simulators aspects of a match such as how they feel on a particular day or each bowling spell.

So,

1/ Is their a match day modifier?
2/ When a bowler bowls two spells (getting there) are both spells exactly the same.
There is no match day modifier, more a ball by ball modifier, which is the random element involved in each delivery

GKZhukov wrote:If a bowler starts particularly well or particularly badly, will that affect the rest of his overs?

I.e. if a bowler got smacked around at the start, would he lose confidence/the batsmen would target him for the rest of the game and vice versa?
No, there is no confidence element in the match engine

If he is getting smashed because he is weak relative to the batsman, chances are that will continue though.

zorax wrote:Does the bonus an OBB get in the 20th over of a T20 the same as he gets in the 50th over of a OD game
yes
zorax wrote:The rule says OBB 'Performs better than normal when bowling at the end of an innings.' This means the 20th over of a T20 should = the 50th over of a OD, but I just want to be sure. Similarly, will the NBB be the same in the 15th over of a OD game as it is in the 15th over of a T20?
The 15th over of a T20 innings is not the start, so there is no NBB impact
