How long abouts does it take to go from Average to Reasonable?

 

[EARLOBE]

So annoyed with my match so far. I'm going to need a very strong bowling performance to stand any chance.

End of over 35 (4 runs) - Male Models(100-5) RR 2.86

We're against the team coming first in the league but I still think we can win with about 200.

Ratings show why i won.

 

[EARLOBE]

How many teams promote in FTP? The whole top three deserve to in your league.

I somehow managed to lose despite these ratings. Two weeks in a row my ratings have been better by over 10k yet I've lost. My tactics clearly aren't working.

Top two, is going to be a struggle to finish there.

Top two in the 2nd & 3rd tier, only winner in the other tiers.

My 31 y.o. capable-reasonable bowler went for 27k today. The other day I sold a similar bowler (if not exactly the same) for 200k. So dire.

 

[EARLOBE]

I'm trying to sell a couple of reasonable players for $100k each, hopefully I'll have a bit more luck.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Got a reasonable batsman with experience on the market for 30k. Expires Sunday. Run and buy.

I gather fatigue doesn't matter quite as much as PFL. I've played a 'clinically dead' batsman in two recent matches and he scored centuries in both. Should really get around to changing my default lineup.

There's a post by Ash somewhere that says something like: "A reliable batsman on clinically dead will still be better then a rested ordinary batsman'

I've finally moved into the top 100 in SOD and T20, and am in 3rd place in Bangledesh in both.

Are there any benefits to the rankings apart from a better cup draw?

A bigger ego?
