From today, if you have a player that plays for his ODI side, your team will reveive a contribution of 2/3 of the players value that week. This will only be awarded if the player actually plays for the team.
This compensation will go into your miscellaneous income immediately after the match.

Not too bad, Cuss' wages are 7,747 p/w so I essentially get an extra 5k per week to pay for a one level fitness drop.

Wow, good bowling line up there Scaly, although I'm a bit surprised by your batting line up, as it's pretty much the same as mine.

 

[Adamc]

I think that's nooga99's (he asked for it to be formatted).

 

[Scaly piscine]

Anyway I got just the 2 pops again. Dillon is now a competent-proficient bowler, but he's not going to bowl for a while. Dillon should pop in stamina this week or next.

Here's my team from earlier, updated slightly:

[b]Player[/b]    [b]Age[/b]  [b]BTR[/b] [b]Batting[/b]     [b]Bowling[/b]      [b]WK[/b]
Shields   24  6701 respectable

Ohhhh.. that explains a lot

 

[GotSpin]

I really hope the YA system keeps churning out a majority of crap players

Finally:

8. Vimesh Malik - 19 yo, BT Rating=16,082
LH Batsman, LH Spin Bowler, strong batting form, strong bowling form, invigorated
A destructive player with superb leadership skills and worthless experience.
Stamina: mediocre Wicket Keeping: abysmal
Batting: competent Concentration: proficient
Bowling: respectable Consistency: competent
Fielding: respectable

Been waiting for that one for ages, I'll give his batting net to someone else now. Only other pop was Wynand to feeble stamina.

 

[superkingdave]

great just one pop, Islam's consistenct went up to quality

Abdul Kadir scores 166* and his batting form drops from superb to feeble

 

[nibbs]

enjoyed quite a surperb training today, which included 3 batting pops; duggan to strong, fry to proficient and wheat, my keeper, to competent.

inspired by scaly i figured i might as well show off my side:

Player    Age  BTR    Batting     Bowling      WK
Hamshaw   21   12976  strong      competent
Wheat     21   15779  competent                strong
Duggan    18   15352  strong
Lennon    20   9450   proficient                
Fry       21   7675   proficient
Willetts  21   4673   respectable
Cuss      22   3390   competent
Holmes    25   11483  feeble      surperb
Sweeney   18   6544   weak        respectable
Mutasa    20   8991   abysmal     proficient
Henshaw   27   7166   abysmal     respectable

Sheffield 21   8213   worthless   respectable (spinner)

I'd consider Sheffield the weakest of my bowlers, but he is a spinner and he has become increasingly economical in recent times. He took 2/14 off his 10 in my cup match the other day. However he doesn't take many wickets, so I'm just never really sure whether to play him now after pulling sweeney in the last week of last season. I think that I will implement a rotation system within my side because of this new fitness stuff, which tbh I think is rather stupid.

 

[andyc]

I've finally decided to TIE for my first league match. My fitness is down to fair, and the team is brand new (having only played the cup match, which they subsequently lost with poor ratings). The team has only the one player with a rating higher than 5,000 (I know it's not a good way to judge a team, but still).

 

[andyc]

Is anyone else having problems updating there squad using the battrick java tool?

What tool is that? And I'm guessing it might be because of the new way form is measured, and that the one you're using was made when the old form system was in place

 

[andyc]

Woah... brenoevo. Way to make me look stupid my deleting your post

 

[chaminda_00]

Hey guys i just signed up, they said that there are 10 guys on the waiting list in Sri Lanka, how long should i need to wait for a side.

 

[Robertinho]

Argh. This new youth system is annoying Not sure whether I should just forget about it. 20,000 a week - 2,000 an ITS. Let's say you decide to promote a 17 year old using your Superb academy. That's 72,000 spent on someone that might just be feeble. If you do strike lucky - then who knows? But you'll have to wait 4 weeks between these pulls... may not even get lucky during the whole season.
