Had him on 4 batting and 3 bowling for a few weeks but now evened things out for a while.Robertinho said:Ooh, got alot to work with thereHow many bat/bowl sessions do you have him on?
What's the guy like on 3 batting nets? I'd have thought it was better to split the nets 2 and 2 rather than 3 and 1. You've got basically one guy popping 11 weeks and the other 5 and a bit weeks when you could have both popping at 7 weeks. I'd have also given the proficient/abysmal a burst of fielding nets to go with the batting, but that's more down to personal preference.PY said:Just checked and I now have him on 3 batting and 1 bowling (he's my 3rd change at the moment).
My 17yo YP is on 1 batting and 1 fitness and I'm fairly happy with his progress:
Sandeep Chanderpaul - 17 yo, BT Rating=8,845
RH Batsman, RM Bowler, superb form, invigorated
(superb batting form, superb bowling form)
A destructive player with competent leadership skills and abysmal experience.
Stamina: feeble Wicket Keeping: abysmal
Batting: proficient Concentration: abysmal
Bowling: abysmal Consistency: feeble
Fielding: respectable
Wages:£1,115
Also got this guy who I'm trying to train up as well (2 bowling nets):
Usmal Liyanage - 18 yo, BT Rating=7,793
RH Batsman, RH Spin Bowler, superb form, moderate
(superb batting form, superb bowling form)
A cautious player with woeful leadership skills and abysmal experience.
Stamina: woeful Wicket Keeping: abysmal
Batting: woeful Concentration: competent
Bowling: respectable Consistency: competent
Fielding: mediocre
I'm thinking I may need to drop of his bowling nets and get him on fitness? What does everyone else think?
Not sure whether to keep my keeper either as maybe needs a bit more batting for my liking though I may well be just being greedy.

Indeed, wicket keeping training also works the same way as fielding I believe. Fielding training with all the secondary pops is incredibly useful for all-rounders, because you get the benefit of both consistency and concentration pops. The 2-3 weeks training times for conc./cons. (when you have the respective batting/bowling nets combined with the fielding) pops do go up by about a week per year (estimated) so although a week is not much, it is a high percentage increase when you're only waiting 2-3 weeks initially, a 19-20 year old is would take double the time of a 17yo. This compares with something like bog standard batting training where a 17yo takes 11 weeks to pop and you'd get to 28yo before that time doubles to 22 weeks to get a pop (although the exact figures aren't known for 28yo training times, I'm just extrapolating).Adamc said:

Umm, after the Friday update but before the financial update I guess.andyc said:
I assume it'll be at the time of the normal daily updates on Friday. Don't get any money from winning a playoff, but you do get the gate receipts while everyone who doesn't have a playoff gets nothing.PY said:
In the usual manner, but after the Friday update but before the financial update if you want to avoid them aging a few days after they've been pulled? Sorry if I haven't made this clear enough...that's just my thinking anyway, if it doesn't make sense then just promote them whenever.GoT_SpIn said:
Your youth pulls are after the financial update (yes, Saturday), but you can promote them at any point from then until the next Saturday. All I'm saying is wait till after the ages are adjusted on Friday to make the youth pull if you want to avoid him aging on Friday. If you don't, then don't worry.GoT_SpIn said:
