Academy Season 2 Discussion and Results

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Copey trying his hardest here.

 

[Simon]

Rankin, what a champ. 50 and a 5-fer. Simon, any chance of him being moved up the order? Don't worry if it's too hard.

Yeh, hes currently batting at 8 in both forms, ill put him up to 6 in both forms for the next matches.

Ashraf's fallen away a bit.....hopefully he can improve.

 

[Simon]

Umm I have major fault with the VC4 file for this One Day competition. Its not opening and I'm trying to work out why. Worse case scenario is that I'll have to replay the first 4 rounds of the OD comp. Hoping it doesnt come to that though.

 

[alternative]

Surprised with Bailey tbh. Was hoping he would just take wickets but instead is making more runs. Bit of Cameron White this bloke.

Except Bailey has managed to take 18 wickets so far

 

[NZTailender]

Patel doing nicely.

 

[Mister Wright]

Gonzalez going guns in First Class.

Basically the file has done itself in, the first four rounds are going to have to be replayed, so existing OD stats don't count. It's pretty much my own fault for not backing up the academy files like I do the WCC ones in case something like this happens anyway.

 

[NZTailender]

Update the players averages using the stats from the 4 rounds and start from there, imo.

Would take too much for every academy player as only wcc players had stats saved. It's pretty much just gonna be a lottery as to who does better/same/worse than they did in the first place. Ill quickly run these matches and then just post up stats after it rather than detailed results again.

 

[Simon]

First four matches plus round 5 have been simmed, these are a breakdown of the stats. Matches will return as normal tomorrow.

And he was doing so good in OD as well...

Still 11 more games so its not a lost cause.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Ah crap.

 

[andyc]

FFS, 5 wickets @ 59? He took better than that in his last game. ****ing vc4

 

[Mister Wright]

Think Gonzalez did better off in the end.
