Rate your chances for tommorow? Bit of advice..your not planning to train all those 17 year olds right?, you have heaps, and spinners dont need as higher stamina as pacebowlers ( shorter run ups ect ) but it is better for them to have higher consitancy, saw a couple of comp/feeble spinners there.

It was a mistake I made early in my Battrick career buying all the youngsters. Anyway, I don't have the money to get rid of them in bring in older, better players, and these youngsters will do until I progress up the leagues.

As for tomorrow, I reckon I could go alright. I haven't looked at his team, but I named my best team (very short on batting though, my best team involves 5 bowlers and my allrounder not bowling) and I have set it for Go For It.

The 17 year olds have decent stats for you, so it wouldnt be too diffrent to buying 25 year olds with the same stats.

I had a look at his team, he is a little bit better than you, but I reckon you could beat him on GFI, plus he PFL is pretty poor, so he might not even play a decent side. Cup matches are important so you should try and get as far as you can, extra cash.

I will win my game, making it to round 4. My highest ever lol.

What does PFL stand for?

Do you think this team is good, or should I change something?

1. Seamus Newton (c)
2. Mati Raisani
3. Greg Mulvaney
4. Denish Mukhopadhyay
5. Hamish Fletcher +
6. Shaun Habens
7. Ron Waterworth
8. Graham Britz
9. Matty Jabulile
10. Alfie Fillery
11. Dan Rocastle

Openers are set in stone, the bowling attack isn't bad, 3 and 4 have performed so far, keeper and allrounder are my two worries.

Player Fitness Levels

Well if thats your best side on GFI, you shouldnt really go wrong, are you PFL levels alright?, Put some of your bowlers defensive bowling imo.

Is that like what it is in their little description thing? Mine are pretty good because they haven't been playing for too long. My stamina for most players sucks though.

Most of your players have mediocre stamina which isnt to bad, a minumum atleast.

heres an example
Anees Ijaz - 22 yo, BT Rating=30,844
RH Batsman, RM Bowler. He is a steady player with woeful leadership skills and respectable experience.
He currently has strong batting form, strong bowling form and energetic fitness.

Stamina: strong Wicket Keeping: worthless
Batting: worthless Concentration: feeble
Bowling: remarkable Consistency: strong
Fielding: competent


Heres a list of PFL levels.

exhausted
drained
fatigued
low
fair
moderate
fresh
lively
invigorated
energetic
sublime

I woudn't recommend playing anyone below invigorated fitness, some people play lively, I don't.
