Mike Vidale - 17 yo, BT Rating=4,520
RH Batsman, RM Bowler. He is a steady player with competent leadership skills and worthless experience.
He currently has competent batting form, feeble bowling form and energetic fitness.
Stamina: competent Wicket Keeping: worthless
Batting: respectable Concentration: mediocre
Bowling: worthless Consistency: worthless
Fielding: abysmal

Lol, stamina and fielding. Haha.

A concentration pop would have been nice!

Anyway, if I have someone else worth nets, I will change his fielding (as it trains better when he gets older) and his stamina (as it trains the same at any age).

So:

Would I be better off giving him stamina and fielding...or this beast 2 bowling

Alex Wotton - 17 yo, BT Rating=3,793
RH Batsman, LM Bowler. He is an attacking player with proficient leadership skills and abysmal experience.
He currently has strong batting form, proficient bowling form and sublime fitness.
Stamina: mediocre Wicket Keeping: worthless

Bowling: competent Consistency: mediocre
Fielding: worthless

I'm going to go 2 bowling on Wotton, actually. It's a while into the season, but if I can train him up just for a few pops or a season or two, he will be a solid player, but not a star. I'd be stopping at strong/superb if I went on, or maybe around quality.

EDIT: No. One bowling and one rotating stam/field net for the team.

Only non bot side in my FC league, one of 3 non bot sides in my OD league and then one of 4 in BT20

Why does BT hate FM bowlers?

 

[Son Of Coco]

Going to get smashed today. Only concern is that by winning my first two games I may have already sealed my fate in staying up next season. Am hoping the teams that will be below me in second last and last (am currently third, but that will chang as I play all the better teams) jag a couple of wins. Can get there as they'll have to play each other twice as well as me again. Will undoubtedly play a few second teams in this comp which will take my RR well into the minuses.

EDIT: Ended up making 200 Will still lose, but at least it might take him a while to get the runs.

EDIT II: He was 202/2 in 41 overs chasing. At least I posted a decent total. Will have to put a stop to that though, which shouldn't be hard when teams trot out their 100000+ rating bowlers. Am going full-strength in the FC match next week in anticipation of a pasting next Friday. Will probably throw in some 2nd XI players to nudge things along.

Looks like we'll chase down 134 at eight-an-over. Never happened before.

Really into this season, though I have a few Transfer Market issues to sort out. Big Cup game on Sunday, heck yes.

First big thrashing of the season. Had a good run until now, playing teams generally weaker than my own. Expect similar beatings over the next month, Div 5 OD is far too strong for my meagre squad.

On the plus side, achieved my highest Batstats ranking. Team might go places someday (5 years time).

 

[Jakester1288]

I rolled the bot for 35 and got it no wickets down. OD is easy. I've got a friendly, second XI again, then a FC against a team tons better than me, I'm trying to bat for the draw on a cracked pitch.

 

[headhunter]

Having one of the worst starts to a season ever. Bottom in FC, 10th in T20 and 5th (with a loss on the cards today) in OD. Wtf is going wrong! I'm in the same divisions as last season where the lowest I finished was 4th in OD.

Nowhere near the quality of some of the 17 Y/O trainees on this site. But I am happy with his progress, will get limited gametime this season with his PFL so low.
