Damn very nice

I think his either a fairly low respectable or feeble.

Shame about the stamina though, sell him

Not sure how much I'd get for him to be honest?

I'm not going to put him on the market without a opening price but I'm not sure where to put it.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Very low respectable, the proficient secondary makes up at least 150 of the wage, so they're no more than 2 nets above respectable - if that. If you gave them a batting net they wouldn't pop for 10 weeks (batting or concentration) probably. That sort of player is misleading, because in reality they're no better than a mediocre-competent with mediocre stamina in terms of how many nets it'd take to get them to the same level, so definitely better off selling them - people are stupid so they won't all realise this fact, so hope for some pillock to bid 200k or something.

 

[andyc]

Go for something relatively high (at least 100k) at first. If no one bids, just list him for less. There are some very stupidly high sales going on right now, so you should be able to get a bit for him.

Just plug him for 100k and some ****** will no doubt just look at the respectable and proficient bit

 

[PY]

On sale for 100k, hopefully some gimp will spend that much and more.

Didn't really think about when I was putting him on sale though.

Crap time for the deadline to come up.

Sell or Keep?

 

[andyc]

I'd sell. His consistency is too low to make him a good bowler, while his batting is too low to make him a good batsman.

[andyc]

I don't know why you're using mediocres, Xavier. Given the strength of some of your players, you should be aiming for competent primaries at least.

Anyway, I'm actually batting better than I expected in my cup match.

End of Over 16: 64-1, runrate=4.00
Hislop 1-0-6-0
Sutton* 17 (35 balls)
Griffin 26 (39 balls)
Last Wicket: Birchall c. Carter b. Stanford 10 (FOW: 26/1)

Edit: This is interesting, looks like a bug in the commentary

Griffin was on 49, then this happened:

End of Over 25: 107-1, runrate=4.28
Hulbert	6-0-28-0
Griffin*	52 (68 balls)
Sutton	33 (61 balls)
Last Wicket: Birchall c. Carter b. Stanford 10 (FOW: 26/1)
24.6 	.	Hulbert to Sutton
 	 	Floated up full and much straighter on the toes, uses the feet well to drive back down the pitch on the leg side, but can't get it past Hulbert.
24.6 	nb3	Hulbert to Griffin
 	 	no ball, Brilliant fielding to prevent a boundary from Hislop, if he decides to give up the game, he might consider becoming an olympic sprinter.

The three runs off the no ball put him up to fifty, but there was no green print saying he got his fifty.

 

[brenoevo]

My guys are putting up a bit of a fight against a way better team than mine. Batting first on my green pitch and playing TIE im currently....

End of Over 34: 173-1, runrate=5.09
Cumberworth 7-0-30-0
Jayasuriya* 71 (88 balls)
Vincent 84 (102 balls)

Last Wicket: Kennedy c. Cumberworth b. Shearer 5 (FOW: 27/1)

Yeah, same here.

End of Over 37: 180-2, runrate=4.86
Stanford 9-2-19-1
Nomvete* 16 (12 balls)
Griffin 82 (99 balls)
Last Wicket: Sutton c. Hulbert b. Jones 55 (FOW: 155/2)

This team is playing four players with BTR's over 15k, and I'm playing 1 (Griffin). One of their guys has a wage of almost 16k, yet went for 0/56 off his 10 (though he does open the batting, too...). That said, once Griffin goes (should be fairly soon, his stamina normally stops around here), we'll probably collapse to 220, at most.

 

[roseboy64]

I don't know why you're using mediocres, Xavier. Given the strength of some of your players, you should be aiming for competent primaries at least.

I figured I'd train them up in stamina then sell off after one more YP in a few weeks the ones who're being replaced. People like Weekes, Willingham and Fettis.

 

[andyc]

Quite surprised by my batting performance today. My opposition, for some reason, decided to use his two worst bowlers to bowl out the last 10, and as a result I got 80 odd runs for one wicket at the end. Griffin carries his bat through the innings for his highest score.


End of Over 50: 267-3, runrate=5.34
Jones 10-0-70-2
Drench* 23 (20 balls)
Griffin 127 (137 balls)
Last Wicket: Nomvete c. Cable b. Jones 33 (FOW: 214/3)

 

[Robertinho]

Currently playing an III team, who have been getting way better ratings than me. Bowled first, they made 305 all out, all my bowlers (barring Mcmillan and Mills, as usual) bowled crap. Not sure if I can make that against their 5 pronged Respectable bowling attack...

 

[brenoevo]

Well I ended up scoreing 6/289 off my 50 overs which is way more than i expected. Jayasuriya played well for his 135. The team im playing has 2 guys with BTR's in the 60000's and another 2 in the high 30000's. I really think my bowlers might struggle unless if the randomness goes my way....

 

[Robertinho]

Gray and Mcmillan are out. Goodbye, cup run.
