btw, i need a friendly if anyone is keen

 

[Adamc]

Im getting pretty good at this bot bashing:

White Knights 51 All Out Priyantha 3/17(5), Sishayi 3/11(3.3), Sisk 2/9(4), Jeithoon 2/10(5)

lost to

Jaffna Jets 0/55 Clayton 33(25), Lucas 21(26)

Ratings were Proficient/Competent Batting and Respectable/Respectable Bowling on PAN. Very happy with the Respectable spin rating and first time i've got a Respectable seam rating without a full strengh pace attack. I played PAN as this team beat the team coming 2nd and i needed a NRR pick me up. Im playing a similar bot next week, better batting but worse bowling. I might go TIE and playing a full strength pace attack.

Our friendly tomorrow should be pretty interesting. Watkins, Whitehorne and Harewood are all on invigorated PFL, so they'll be rested. My batting should still be fine, but my bowling lineup will be Crawford, Baird and three competents.

Yeah will be interesting to see what Jeithoon can do against Cuss and Ashton. I expect Ashton to be too good, but he might do ok against Cuss. Even with those three guys out, i don't think i have much of a chance.

 

[Adamc]

Ashton and Cuss have pretty much identical batting skill tbh. Remarkable/superb/proficient v wonderful/strong/respectable. Ashton's quite close to wonderful, but at the moment I wouldn't say he's noticeably better than Cuss.

Just expanded my ground using x19 not x18 considering I thought I would factor in the extra members I will get in the coming weeks.

Expansion is underway and due for completion on 20/03/2007. It will fit 19,646

Just thought i'll mention i expanded my ground to 35k. At the end of last season it was 20k, so we had a massive increase over the last season. I've been doing minor ones during the season. But i thought i would take a risk and go for big increase. Hopefully it pays off as i will get 250k per home if we sell out, which will be pretty mad. Only got two home games left this season, not including Twenty20.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Mine's 15k ffs, but I've only filled it once this season. Wish I'd signed up somewhere easy.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Hmm I'm up to joint 21st in the World Elite BatStats ratings now, joint 5th best seam attack.

I'm still free for a friendly.

I've never actually filled my ground, just filled sections here and there. If your filling Standing or Uncovered you could expand those sections.

 

[cricketboy29]

Mine's 26550, My last game it was about 750 away from full capacity...

[AussieDominance]

"Worthless YP" My ground expansion should give me like 125-140 k a home game I think.

I am finally earning an Interest of 80K, if i lower the FA's now will my interest lower or should it not matter. I currently have 10, should i stick to the same or lower it. Can someone explain me please?

What is your projected income?

What is your projected income?

Current Balance: £1,681,743
Projected balance at next Update: £1,723,067

Current Balance: £1,681,743
Projected balance at next Update: £1,723,067

Well there is a cap on the interest of 80k, so if you had 8 FA you would still get the same interest as you would with 10. Once you hit the 2 mil mark you drop back to 6 FA etc

Ok thank you

3.6 	W	Canning to Paris
 	 	Forward, the ball beats the bat, and middle and leg stump are out of the ground.
3.5 	.	Canning to Paris
 	 	Pitched outside off stump, Paris mistimes the drive to the mid off region.
3.4 	W	Canning to Coates
 	 	Picked out Fernando at mid on. He wanted to go for the boundary but completely mistimed it.

Made my day, that did.

Playing Clapham, expected to lose comfortably now I've sold Viduka. Did okay with the ball, Coulson got hammered (as expected) but the rest did well. Bowled them out for 244 in teh 48th, Appleyard top scoring with 93 before he was out to Hodge. Hodge and Seneviratne both took 3, the others all chipped in with a few bar Coulson, who copped a 6 run an over pasting.

Currently:

End of Over 16: 86-1, runrate=5.38, reqrunrate=4.68 (244-10)
Walton	3-0-12-0
Keane*	45 (52 balls)
Jephcott	38 (43 balls)

Looking good, especially with Munroe still in the sheds. Hopefully these guys can guide us most of the way. Dylan went for a 2nd ball duck which was dissapointing.
