I dunno, I'm a bit undecided on him..I might sell him, I might keep him. Opinions?

 

[Adamc]

Either sell or just keep him as a second-string player, no point training him IMO.

Perfect start to my cup game, wickets from the first two balls. And just got another so they're 0-3 after 1.3 overs. Cuss, Watkins, Whitehorne and Ashton are being rested (so my entire batting lineup basically).

 

[Adamc]

Bowled them out for 41 and won by 9 wickets. Bot-like ratings for my second-string team (apart from spin):

[Scaly piscine]

Pretty much my best side ended up playing because of that match orders bug, bowled them out for 55 and chased it in 7.1 overs. Pace took 5-5.

 

[AussieDominance]

pretty easy win for me

Pup 235 all out (46.3)
Findlay 72 Nevin 56 Paris 45
Even Flow 78 all out
Jones 3/22 Mee 2/23 Simpson 2/17 Verhoeven 2/12

Facing a very tough Cup game next round but I aim to progress as a sign of improvement as I made the second round last year

[PY]

I got a 200k bid for my YP already and two days left to run so I'm pretty darn happy.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Ten-wicket win with no lowering of stamina.

Bowling first against a bot is good!

 

[GotSpin]

Decent training. Got a home cup match next sunday, but I have far better batting ratings compared to their bowling. Will defaintly need Allen to play.

Stamina pops are good. Need kamlesh to start playing as soon as possible, especially since he's a spinner

Hey Guys

Clapo's XI is entering just it's 2nd season of Battrick, and was promoted to Division IV in Australia after last season. I'm looking foward to copping an absolute pasting in both OD & FC leagues!!!

I'm wishing i wasn't promoted after it seemed such a good idea at the end of last season , i guess the only thing i can do is hope i'm able to win a few games and keep the majority of my member base!!!

Best of luck in the upcoming season!!!!

Clapo

 

[andyc]

Hey Clapo, welcome to CW mate. I know how you feel about promoting; I promoted from Div 5 (for the second time in my Battricking career), and I don't stand a chance in OD, though FC's a bit better for me.

Anyway, had a rather unremarkable (no pun intended, although Canning's still stuck on quality bowl) training session.

[Johnners]

Thanks Andy.... i'm a bit cheesed about how i got to Div IV personally, the guy i faced in the playoff threw it, swapped his order around (bowlers top of order, with batsmen doing all the bowling) so i have no real idea as to where i'm at!!!

Seeking a bit of advice if possible... i'm still a little unsure when bidding of a players worth...
