01 Feb 17:25 - Stumped! News: Senior One Day Internationals Return
That is right. Interrnational fixtures are generated for a busy month for the ODI players. Games are occuring every 3.5 days - and we will not have any extra fitness updates running, so managers need to at least think about fatigue and stamina in handling their squads. But worry not club managers, international fitness is treated differently. The first ODIs are on Feb 7th starting at 00:00 game time.


Why is it always done in such a hurry ? You dont hear from them in months (In Andy's case years) and then bish bash bosh! I mean I have no conception of what's involved as a NAT manager and have no desire to put my hand up , nor would anyone vote for me !! but in terms of planning , mailing , fitness and just general enjoyment you would hope for more notice- is there any reason why this could not be done weeks, months years in advance?

@cnerd123 I reckon Rehman should be Nat quality come the next T20 Nat season. Maybe still a bit early but he is one terrific T20 new ball bowler. Lester Shum >> him at least for this SOD season; Kaiser shouldn't be considered yet in that format.

Jeepers. I think I knew he was one of the better Pirates, but 52 pot late bloomer bat is berserkers talent. Should nab quite a few games for Aus after a couple of seasons.
Wickers Warriors have just pulled a 48 bat pot (potential distributions of 20/13/15 - perfect for a late innings finisher) 18 keeping pot player with 19 potential stamina to boot.

There ends Young's ODI career before it starts.

I'm sorry Marcussjd9 but your 2 teams in the Chaos Cup today are void by default as the age does not start from the youngest to the oldest - however my Geese also have one player out of position I'm not sure if they will void both of consider how many are wrong in their decisions splitting points by 1/11th per error - :)

I guess the only way around it for us is to can ask rtj to make up some loophole :laugh: - perhaps if the ages are non-existent they can be whatever you imagine them to be and if you imagine them correct well then you get half the points!

I hope you do not mind but I have added you as assistant managers of the BD Nat team. I have also shared a link to our Google Sheet Database in the Discussion section. You should be able to edit the file by just following the link.

If you are keen to help a bit, could you please help update the skills of those who are in the database already + have their skills visible? Including the existing squad. I use this database to guide selection, it's already got a ton of players on it from 16 YOs to 30+. I think there won't be many players out there who I haven't already scouted and added in, but maybe some of the names Jarquis has found might be worth adding in.

I hope on Sunday to have some time to start DMing managers of high-potential players who might be ready to be selected but whose skills are hidden. Got to make some time on Monday to confirm the squad and set a lineup for Tuesday

Really wish they'd give us more notice!!!!

Will look at this asap, afraid that the upcoming holiday ~perfectly coincides with the period we've got. But will endeavour to do some work today, maybe over the weekend, and if necessary Monday evening / Tuesday morning.
50/50 to make the squad apparently.

Would love for Khattak to make it too.
Young, already? Even I didn't quite expect that for a big 3 nation, cool.

Visible players updated.

Messages sent to managers of the players I'd listed above.

Is it possible to hide those in the spreadsheet that are non-BD players? Or those that have been removed from the shortlist?
