Cricketer Of The Year
Welcome, Trevor. Your team looks pretty good, alot of "well-rounded" players. I have a few 'primary jocks', ie; resp bat, woeful stamina & conc.

1. It depends how badly you want a spinner? You could probably just sit back on the 300k and get interest on it, accumulate even more money as the season goes on.
2. I don't really care much for keepers. My keeper is has feeble keeping :D
3. Not sure? Depends on your league. It really varies from league to league. Some will be easy, some will be impossible.
4. I'm training my best bowler, who is 20yo, to get him up to Strong bowling. It's really up to you, if you have better players to give the nets to.
5. Scaly just answered that
6. I have no idea. The thing I hate about BT is that you can't see the sublevels. To be perfectly honest, I'd prefer it that all competents are the same, as opposed to high-low sublevels. So you can train them just to say Respectable, and they're as good as a high respectable.
7. That sounds tough. I wouldn't want to risk losing, so I'd go normal.

Yeah, actually with your last question Trevor, I'd go normal too. I'm doing the same, as the ratings of the team I'm playing were pretty low apart from a mediocre or two, but I don't want to risk TIEing and losing.

What's your starting eleven?

Draper, Mofokeng and Chorley are my youth players. Mofokeng being the YP for this week and Draper being my first youth player midway last season. Through some mismanagement he didn't get enough training sessions but that's sorted now so hopefully he can improve. Chorley came in at the end of the season. Elton and Patterson are my highest runscorers with Elsegood and Butcher the best wickettakers. In fact the bowlers are pretty much even in terms of wickets and the like.

I'll join in the party then, though I'll refrain from showing secondaries and stamina as they're crap (though I've finally got most of them to feeble+ now).

Code:
	[B]Name	        Age	BTR	Bat	      Bowl	    WK[/B]
1	Cuss	        21	23,821	quality		
2	Wynand  	18	 6,214	proficient
3	Berry (LF)	24	10,722	strong	      competent (R)	
4	Gillete (+)	22	10,299	competent                   proficient	
5	Bridge	        21	 6,948  respectable		   
6	Gillespie (RFM) 25	14,991  proficient    strong (b1)
7	Boeta           20       5,581  respectable
8	Malik (LHS)	19	14,292	mediocre      respectable (b4)	
9	Pollock (RM)	20       7,845	abysmal	      proficient (b3)	
10	Male (RM)	21	 6,425	abysmal	      proficient (b5)	
11	Badley (LF)	19	11,064	abysmal       proficient (b2)
Got a few respectable batsmen and one respectable bowler as backup. Cuss and Malik are very close to popping in batting, Badley should pop in bowling this week or next. Reasonably happy with the lineup, though it's probably the worst in my league apart from the bots.

The main problem is that I can only see four or five players who will be in my team in say two seasons (assuming I don't sell them). Cuss will obviously, planning on training Wynand and Badley up to superb by the end of the season, will keep training Malik up to competent/strong with good secondaries, and Gillespie might still be in the side though he won't be anywhere near as effective. Trying to sell Berry at the moment, hopefully buy a high-strong or superb batsman from the proceeds though they're hard to find on the transfer market.

Guys, do you reckon I'd be better off using a 19 year old mediocre bat, feeble stamina, strong concentration, or an older, competent bat with mediocre stamina and woeful concentration?
 

Adamc

Cricketer Of The Year
I'd go for the 19yo, only reason to go for the older guy is if he's high-competent and has much better experience.

Are you saying that's cheap or expensive? I got a 27yo respectable batsman for 19k a few weeks ago.

In other news: woohoo! Someone bid on Berry. 625k coming my way unless someone else bids higher in the next half an hour. :D It was a div V team as well, I imagine it must have taken up quite a lot of their finances...
