Age of my players in starting XI - 18, 19, 22, 22, 18, 20, 17, 20, 23, 18, 17

As long as you're training six of them, they'll see you through in seasons to come!

not enough matures IMO

Why is that a problem? I don't think the game's been running long enough for there to be much correlation between age and experience - not sure offhand, but I think two of my most experienced players are still two of my youngest, thanks to the vagaries of my starting squad.

Sorry if I'm missing your point - it's early 'round here and I'm hungry.

Anyone got a gun batsmen they want to sell me for 4.3 million?

Slightly suspicious that in the original posted, the "strong stamina" had a capital S, but damn. What-a-gun.

 

[GotSpin]

I stuffed up the bolding and accidently deleted the s.

No training pops for me, Dillon and Armstrong popped in experience tho.

Proficient is 1100 to 1900, so that Folkes will take about 12-13 weeks to pop in bowling.

Clapo you've got Groves listed twice in your 5 bowlers.

5-6 weeks. He has a decent BT rating (middle of sublevels for all those three feebles) so a good chance of a consistency pop - or if not the stamina is highish.

Cheers for pointing that out... updated (no.2 is now Meyer)

I would sell who you said, plus Savage when he pops - should get not far off 1m for him and you've got plenty of FMs as it is.

Geez, I've had him on a bowling net all season without a pop too. Guess I may as well keep him going until he gets there. I'd imagine he'd sell for a lot more at strong.

Having missed out last week, Brooker's my only pop this time around:

Lloyd Brooker - 21 yo, BT Rating=33,280
RH Batsman, RFM Bowler, superb batting form, superb bowling form, sublime
An attacking player with strong leadership skills and woeful experience.
Stamina: competent Wicket Keeping: feeble
Batting: woeful Concentration: abysmal
Bowling: quality Consistency: remarkable
Fielding: feeble

He takes back his rightful place of leading seam bowler...it's a straightrace now between Brooker and Hirst (my CW BT Cup SF hero) to see who hits double-remarkable first.

Keep in mind that the wage doesn't change during the season, only at the end of the season, so if he's been on a bowling net all season he'll be much closer to popping.

Any particular reason apart from the fact that Walton's primary is a few sub-levels above that you'd sell Savage 1st??

anyway, thanks

Walton gives a much better balance because he bats a little and he's the only medium pacer - things that will barely be taken into consideration on the market.
