Extremely happy with that. Will rest three of my main players for tomorrow's match, which we should still win easily anyway. Even if we lose, we'll finish on top. Then things get interesting. :D

Transfer listed for 10m, just because I need 12m for the kind of players I want and have 2m in the bank. May just keep training him though, could make all my bowlers exceptional by the end of next season.

Will get a 2nd secondary net until he pops to proficient. Then I'll just flood Murali again. Proficient seems to be decent level for performance improvements.

He'll get you out of debt, for sure. How much are you losing each week? You may want to start off by stopping academy investment at this stage - you shouldn't be pulling youth players until next season anyway.

Before you sell all your guns, sell some of your older players perhaps. Whats your squad size? If it's too large, you may need to reduce it to cut down on wages. Ditto for psychologists and financial advisers.

You'll need to identify where you're losing money. I'm guessing you have a large squad and it's mainly due to wages?

I'd sell him, I don't know how much you'd get though. But you need to get out of debt and get some decent interest.

I reckon Whitman would go for around 1 million, maybe a bit more. I sold a prof/med batsman at the start of the season for about 800k, but he had just turned 18 and only had med stamina.

getting better just, need to keep working on him!

got auto premotion in both OD (won every match) and FC 3 pts of 1st which was annoying but i have a hard season coming up, but this 2020 is more difficuilt to play then the others and as i have to rest my best three players for the next match i think i am out at round 1.

In BT20, Oleary clears out 210k BTR's worth of batsmen in his first over to leave the opposition 5-4. Bit of a fightback since then sees them at 17-7, so no great drama here.

If i could get out of negative with out selling a few gun players which i have started to build up through training would be good but i have no idea how to.

Bugs sell Deacon and Tyler and see what happens. List them for 500k each and drop by 100k each time they don't sell.

Yeah both are too old to be trained and your younger players should jump ahead of them in a season if trained right. Also if your not selling your ground out you might need to look at downgrading your stadium once you have money. Also you might want to look at cutting back your psyc and PRs back down to two for a while.
