Stumped!

[Jarquis]

The issue with making your pitch a minefield is that you have to bat on it….

Have received a 350K offer for Zack Yattack. Tempted to sell him off - reduce our financial burdens, redirect the funds to reducing ground size, open up a spot in the senior XI to get gametime into up and comers like Madani/Halliday/Younis.

What happens if you go bankrupt? Just asking for a friend

 

[cnerd123]

I think your highest waged players get automatically listed on the TM? Has happened to a few teams before.

yea, according to Rob:

There's no official bankruptcy declaration in this game. If you are in debt for a specific number of weeks in a row at the time of the the finance update (I think it's 2 weeks but not 100% sure), then your highest wage staff member gets auto listed on the transfer market. This process continues at each finance update until you are out of debt.

I think your highest-wage players get put on the TM one by one.

I’m not there yet but was curious aha

Only last-gamer Potgieter has yet reached 20 of the AXI batters chasing down 235-8. The early run outs didn't help lol. And he gets out for 23 (30) to end his club career.

Meanwhile a fairytale moment for Schmaltzberg's Illesinghe against Winton CC. Dev friendly, 5 runs to win, on 92. Hits a four and a six to register his first century.

20 pops for AX-W.

 

[ataraxia]

9 pops for AXI.

After 115ao against Ashgrove we have 195ao for ZCC. At least they've got a fair chase on their hands, but a Raun 60-odd not out looking incredibly likely.

 

[cnerd123]

6 Dev boys in the XI and still clocking 59K ratings. Positive signs.

 

[cnerd123]

Shah-boss just loves batting against AXI. Another 50 for him, 100 run opening partnership for ZCC. Abdul Younis on 41* - career highest score in the 50 over format for him. Hope he gets a fifty as well.

Schmaltzenberg not holding back in our DEV friendly

Schmaltzenberg not holding back in our DEV friendly

i even rested three players

although tbf I did recruit a bunch of 16yos for the team three seasons ago so

 

[cnerd123]

First ever senior cricket fifty for 20-year old Abdul Younis 45 pot bat who bowls some useful spin, good to see him get runs at this level.

Only 67 more needed. Can we make this a 10-wicket win?

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Margenout popped (in ATT) as well, nice surprise

Ralph Arnold got two pops too so is at 34/46 now, just his stam needs a bit more work to be able to contribute in longer 50-over spells (and need to try to get him to RFM at least)

 

[cnerd123]

60k ratings for Ashgrove Astronauts :o

Solid start in the chase of 159 against almost the same ZCC XI that beat AXI earlier today. Just one change - Halliday in for Younis. He batted well, 36 off 20 vs 70k bowling.

 

[ataraxia]

Law brings up 50 off 29 balls against AX-W. If he stays in 300 is on the cards.

Having to cut my losses with Afrika though so won’t see them again for a while

3rd match of Morpork v GG series tonight - starting soon

Morpork won the first two matches, the first one a high scoring U21 and the second one a squeaker of a chase in CWC4 - putting out a T20 specialist side so the ratings is only 55k

 

[Magrat Garlick]

well our bowling attack just made mince meat of GG, three for Grobbelaar and then everyone's favourite no-rounder Van Heerdens got the big hitter Sutherland out for 24

84 for eight and it's looking a bit like a formality for 3-0 in the series sadly
