Damnit. WIsh everything would hurry up

I agree, everyone else making YP's is making me jealous.

My YP

Steven Obrien (545637)
RH Batsman, RFM Bowler, respectable batting form, respectable bowling form, fresh
A steady player with woeful leadership skills and abysmal experience.

Plays For: Scaly Piscine CC
Nationality: England
Age: 17 Years Old
Battrick Rating: 3,372
Wages: £483 p/w

Stamina: feeble Wicket Keeping: woeful
Batting: competent Concentration: mediocre
Bowling: worthless Consistency: worthless
Fielding: feeble

Put 12 ITS into batting, 11 into concentration, 8 into stamina and 4 into fielding. Batting, fielding are about one level higher and w/keeping 2 levels higher than what you'd get purely with the ITS. Average YP really, but I'll train him with the 1 batting net all season, should be near proficient by the end of it.

Cushy first round fixture in the cup:

Carribean XI
Top Order: woeful
Middle Order: abysmal
Lower Order: worthless
Seam Bowling: woeful
Spin Bowling: worthless
Fielding: woeful

Might open with Cuss to give his stats a boost...

 

[Robertinho]

Okay, everyone's aged but still can't make a YP.

 

[Adamc]

My default match orders are really screwed up. Cuss, Bell and Ashton are in twice, and Ashton is apparently bowling at the same time as keeping. Presumably if I don't change the orders that's the team that will take the field.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Do it!

 

[Adamc]

Nah I want to TIE. If it's still screwed up when I'm out of the cup I'll use those orders in a friendly.

Edit: and my first league match of the season will be against...Pebble Street CC (not Borderliners as I said before I edited this post). Played them four times and it's two each at the moment. They've got a couple of guns (NT bowler and U19 batsman) but not much apart from that, so I think I've got a decent chance.

 

[Adamc]

Unexpectedly good training update - five pops.

[superkingdave]

Adam i've had orders like that before, one of my players was down to play twice, one of my random other players played instead.

Good training for me, particularly Abdul Kadir

You'd get very good value if you sold them, YP all-rounders are way overvalued, you'll get a minimum of 150k I reckon - also they've got fairly low wages for a double competent with feeble keeping (range is £550-£1100 - contribution from secondaries for that player is negligible).

A destructive player with superb leadership skills and worthless experience.

Plays For: Whenuapai CC

Battrick Rating: 4,564
Wages: £752 p/w
Stamina: mediocre Wicket Keeping: mediocre
Batting: competent Concentration: abysmal
Bowling: competent Consistency: abysmal
Fielding: worthless

hmm, I just need to decide whether I can actually be bothered investing time in this guy that would lead to him becoming quite good. What I really would have prefered is for him to have been a spinner. So I think sadly he doesn't really fall into the Whenuapai plans just yet. I think I'll have to sell him...
