Did not realise it was development... If you looking for a challenge in Dev, then TNT is you better option. I`ve accepted the requests anyway for TMOs!
Just wanted to thank you again , i figured out a lot with our friendlies . I am almost sure i wont stay up in div 1 dev however the balance seems good now . My middle order still have one question but other than that I'm good to go for the season . You were a big help thank you .

So I`m very tempted to try and get this man for TNT. Been saving up monies for another high quality bat so may have enough monies to grab him. It will turn TNT into a Wrist Spinning duo (in about 3/4 seasons!!) but will likely go broke.

I also could sell one or both of

Unsure right now. What do you guys think?
I think firstly your highly undervaluing Lenon and Opperman , both are very close to Gambushe and currently on value of what i think he is worth at 2 Mil . Secondaries would have pushed him above .

Both Lenon and Opperman has secondaries , Both can hold a bat and both have bowling characteristics . It comes down here if you prefer a new ball spinner , a reverse swinging fast medium (Opperman IMO is the best amongst these three by a long way ) or a high quality specialist wrist spinner .

Don't over extend , especially not at the cost of two really good bowlers .

Edit . Lenon might be at half what his value would've been without the Superstar trait so actually way less than the other 2 at around 800 to 900k

I like Opperman but he has not always performed like I would like. Lemon is pretty much treated as the 5th/6th bowling option.

I just like wrist spinners.... But yeah don't need Gambushe better to wait for a high quality batsmen or allrounder. Thanks. Talked me off the ledge.

All good man , if it is a current need you can always pick up one of the below at a fraction of that price currently however already seniors and less seasons etc , pains me to say it as i want to try and snipe one of them .


There is also another decent wrist spinner on the market and variable others that hasn't been seen(Or interest in) by big money .

Also I'm unsure what you mean by Opperman underperformed . He is going to be your lead wicket taker of all time before he gets to 200 Matches .

He is going to be a king maker and t20 i had a reverse swinger and all rounder, one of my favorite players I've ever had . There was a clear difference between T20 and OD , in my case around 20% in performance. From the looks of it this is almost more amplified for Opperman as he is a better bowler but still very good in both and still 2 or 3 seasons away from peak .

I'm a very harsh task master!! 😁

It's a bit unfair on him because I play a dry fast pitch at TNT. But that is because of the temperamental Beasley who is also captain!

That other decent Wrist spinner is being eyed by TMOs.... at this stage TNT only eyes players up to 20 years of age.

Just a by note im shocked by the transfer market this end of season , there are top quality players passing by . On both ends of the spectrum , from rebuild youngsters to mid seniors for a run at a div 1 title .

Anyone else noted this ?

Market feels like it is all over the place... think any high quality player is going for exorbitant monies. The good to middling players, are getting some monies occasionally, but if they have any sort of downside people just not willing to spend the monies. Unless they make a huge difference stick with what you have and save monies for the big buy.
