I have 5, works fine for me. 10 seems to be overkill.

Hey Adam, I know you're looking for a Remarkable-ish bowler with good secondaries and some guy just listed one in the Player Valuations thread.

Stamina: proficient Wicket Keeping: abysmal
Batting: abysmal Concentration: proficient
Bowling: remarkable Consistency: exceptional
Fielding: competent

That's all the info he listed, but I'm assuming it's Shaun Chandler, looking at his squad.

[Adamc]

Yeah I asked him about it actually, he said he wants 3.75m. Nah.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Hmm I conceded 303 runs, but Cuss and Wynand chased that down in 41.4 overs for a 10-wicket win despite the cracked pitch. Cuss 149* (128) and Wynand 147* (127). Watkins the only good bowler with 10-1-27-2.

Top three finish is secure after Pebble Street lost yesterday, will come down to the final week. I need to win and to have Pebble Street pull off an unlikely win as well (although they beat NorCricket last time so it's not impossible).

Told you it'd go down to the last week.

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Awesome pop Chris man, you guys will have me covered now. Friendly should be good next week.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Also, training times for a 19 year old on two batting nets anyone?

 

[Adamc]

10 weeks or so.

 

[Jamee999]

Adam, how much would you say a 19 y/o remarkable at the start of a season is worth?

 

[Adamc]

Depends on secondaries obviously. With the market as it is now I'd expect 2.75m minimum for someone with reasonable concentration and stamina. There are some weird ones though, I saw an 18yo yesterday who had quality batting, woeful conc and feeble stam who went for 1.1m.

Unless i win this week

Seriously though, i still you you'll have me

 

[superkingdave]

managed to get someone to bid 50K on this guy who i bought for 8K a couple of months back(just because of his name and he was cheap), so unless someone else bids on him that'll be a tidy 36K profit taking into account his wages

Number 1 in my league won and with their NRR of 54.96 compared to 26.59 for me, they've pretty much won. Good for me sicne I'll pretty much have only one team to compete with next season. That depends though on who gets relegated to my division. If it's a crappy team I can expect to reach Div. II next season. I'll need some new blood though to be competitive so with finances currently at £274,968 i'll expect to be able to bring in around 2 good signings near the end of the season.

10 weeks or so.

8-9 weeks more like.
