Hmm... I guess if I'd used some ITS sessions I could have gotten him to be quite good, but oh well

 

[GotSpin]

Haha that's never a good sign

Depends on your bowling really, but I know I'd keep him and just put him on some bowling and fitness nets. How come you gave him ITS for concentration if you also gave him some for bowling?

I don't know, i wasn't really concentrating Im going to sell him and buy a similiar but with better secondries. I can't be bothered training him as he is a low respectable, and i want to finish my batsmen

what do u guys think, should i keep and train him up or should i sell?

 

[andyc]

Hmm depends how many free nets you have. He'd be pretty low in both batting and bowling though I'd imagine. I'd sell him but it's up to you

 

[cricketboy29]

EDIT: Thanks Andy, one more question
and if your academy is in superb condition, do you have a higher chance of getting a good player?

 

[Robertinho]

Yes, you do.

"used up 20 ITS aswell, im not here next 2 saturdays so i couldn't resisit, 12 on batting. 5 on stamina, 2 on cons and 1 on fielding"

 

[PY]

Well spotted Thomas, 12 on bowling then if you want to be pedantic/correct.

 

[superkingdave]

yes it was 12 on bowling

 

[marc71178]

Think I'll wait a week to use my ITS then!

 

[andyc]

I'm waiting till I get the full 36 for a 17 year old. Will probably be 12 stamina, bowling, and then 6 for consistency and 6 for fielding, or maybe 8/4.

 

[andyc]

Bugger, I lost the toss and am batting first in my cup match. I'd set my bowlers to be fairly defensive and as such would have preferred to be bowling first.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Probably going to spend my ITSs with 10 each on stamina, batting and bowling and the remaining 6 on fielding.
