And btw, at what amount of money would financial advisors start to make my club some real cash?

Depends what you mean by 'some real cash'. Basically if you have like 400k+ and the relevant number of financial advisors you'll double your money well within 3 seasons. At the moment I have 6 advisors and 459k, they made me 10k in profit this week. If I had 900k the profit would be around 30k. So you can make good money if you can resist buying anything for a while.

Finally got two annoying crap batsmen out for 22 and 38. If I can get some more wickets I might have a chance of bowling them out, but can't see it with my spinner on very defensive. Still if anyone has to bat I'd want it to be their two all-rounders, one is in at the moment. Their all-rounders were on invigorated and fresh fitness when I checked yesterday - they're pretty much their only star players (who make a big impact on their match ratings).

Haha. I was just 'watching' the sale of my YP. Listed him for 150k, bidding was up to 160k today with a few minutes to go. A couple of teams then started a bidding war, got up to about 198k so I was hoping I could sell him for 200k...then out of the blue one of the teams bids 275k.

I spent 34 ITS on him, so a net profit to me of 207k, which should cover the cost of my next ground expansion.

I must be playing in the only ever game on Battrick where a team actually speeds up in the 30-39 overs.

Anyway I'll need one of those collapses to keep this side below 300 now, but those only seem to happen to teams that actually bother to pick at team that bats below 5.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Game is pretty much over already because of the usual Battrick nonsense where wickets in hand means they faff about needing 6+ an over.

 

[cricketboy29]

Pretty good game for me destroyed the opposition on PAY, next time im going to TIE it.

Win puts me out of the playoff zone, which is all i can hope for this year, top of the league recorded superb,quality,woeful,proficient,proficient, mediocre on TIE so not much chance there.

Still looking for a friendly

Smacked the ball into the head of a small child who had to be taken to hospital!

unfortunately Buckle and Paterson were both out cheaply but the win should be there for me

 

[nibbs]

My team cruised yet again. We haven't been tested all season long. When we meet State Shield side in the cup on Monday I think that my side are in for a bit of a shock. I suspect like in our past 3 meetings we're likely to get hammered.

[Adamc]

Scrappy TIE win against a bot. Made 321/5, bowled them out for 112. No one did outstandingly well. Got a top order rating of mediocre, which was probably because I opened the batting with an abysmal, who duly proceeded to get out first ball.

Improved a level of fitness and two levels of morale since last Sunday though so should get decent ratings in my next cup match. Not sure about batting order, going to be played on another cracked pitch so I'm tempted to go with the same as last week, worked well anyway. I want Cuss' fitness to go up so I'll probably put him at 5 or something. Malik went back up to sublime fitness pretty quickly so might be able to open the batting again, at least while he's only playing one match per week.

 

[BlackCap_Fan]

Woah, rudiculouslu easy win. We bowled first and got early wickets, getting them for 42/3 and then 64/4. They recovered well to 141/4 and looked to post a decent total but collapsed to be all out for a mere 170. Wilkes and Mansell got 3 wickets each.

Francis Ashton was the star of the show again, hitting 102 from just 81 balls (his fifty coming up in 32 balls), and Flahaven getting 64 off 58, both of them not out.

Victory by ten wickets.

Yes, the game is always out to get you.

 

[marc71178]

A nice TIE win yesterday - and not a bot I don't think. Chasing down 85 with 37 overs to spare is good for the RR.

First sell out as well - that's a nice moment.

would some one please bid for my guy
he's rubbish but most of you can spare the money i need some rich guy to bid on him else i'll run out of money
