20-run win for Scaly. Congrats. :)

Disappointed in my top order, Archer had a shocker in particular. Scaly's bowling depth carried the game though. Might have won if I'd promoted Pickett :p

Yea your team is ancient, I got rid of most of my older players and am phasing in the young 'uns. Can't wait to promote my two youth bats when they hit reliable.

My 17yos are better then my 18yos so not too many guys will be coming into my starting XI next season. Most of guys will just float around the Twenty20 side until they are at ok level where they will sell for something decent. Not going to sell anyone with less then ordinary endurance, as they go for next to nothing.

Had an 18 year old pop to reliable bowling and a few other pops. My youth team has gun bowlers, but fairly average batting. I should've kept Scott Elliott, who'd have to be accomplished and close to expert by now.

Had a bat pop to capable, and one to reasonable. The reasonable one was an average bat when I bought him on the 19th from Yorkshire Puddings. Reckon I did well there (Y).

These are my squads.





Cameron and Littlejohn were the last two players promoted from the youth team, and I'm going to train them until they pop in bowling and batting respectively and then sell them.

Personally I'd go all-rounder til their batting pops to reasonable - just so the sublevel isn't wasted if you end up selling them at any point.

Was starting to think about going bowling to start off with, to ensure he makes the starting XI as a specialist bowler. Then transfer to all rounder once he pops to reasonable bowling to make the most of sub levels. Basically what you said in reverse.
