Bowling Order

Oneil, Stevens, Beevers, Fleming, Wainwright

Keeper- Berry

 

[nooga99]

Id just work on getting Blewitt, Kenna and Fleming out of the team and replacing them with respectables and proficients.

 

[andyc]

Hmmm... assuming that's your batting order, I'd have Lockwood and Nash above Kenna and Berry. You're obviously giving Stevens a lot of nets, but I notice you don't have any other players under 20, so maybe you could look for/pull a new trainee next season? You shouldn't be bowling Fleming, regardless of his secondaries, cause mediocre is just too low IMO. Wainwright's getting on as well, so you might want to consider keeping an eye out for a new allrounder in a season or two's time.

Good idea though, think I might do something similar.

 

[nooga99]

Might be a good idea for everyone to have a thread for their team, asking about what to improve etc etc

 

[ash chaulk]

thats what i was thinking

 

[ash chaulk]

That is my Lineup. yeah i have alot of older players and most nets go on Elvins and Stevens and a couple on Berry.

Berry only bats that high because the battrick assistant says hes better then the others.

Nash seems to always get out in the 30's

and lockwood used to be a gun and has become a dud.

 

[andyc]

Might be a good idea for everyone to have a thread for their team, asking about what to improve etc etc

Keep it one thread IMO, don't want to clutter it up, and then some teams won't get noticed. Just wait a while between posting teams.

And Ash, regardless of what battrick assistant says, I wouldn't be batting a mediocre in front of proficients.

 

[andyc]

Edit: Will give it a day, on second thoughts.

this is my top team in batting order

 

[Scaly piscine]

This is my starting XI what is the main area you guys think i should work on:

Nash will keep getting out for 30s because they've abysmal stamina. Basically you've got 2 batsmen you can rely on for runs - the two openers - after that you'll be lucky to get anything against a decent team. With Battrick's OD engine you basically have guys who average 100 or more, as your openers have done, then there's a big drop. You need to have more reliable bats and less bits and pieces batters of the mediocre, competent variety and the proficient-woeful types. These won't help you win games, they'll get a few against crap teams that you'll thrash anyway and maybe one decent 30-40 a season against a good side. You need to get Nash's stamina up and then they'll be a be a reliable scorer for you (obviously they'd need promoting up the order when the stamina is better).

I presume you're still training Elvins, you need to keep doing this for a while and get them up to superb+. I would recommend selling Lockwood, you should get 300k minimum and get in a boring young trainee batsman like the one I've got:

4. Steven Obrien - 17 yo, BT Rating=6,527
RH Batsman, RFM Bowler, superb batting form, superb bowling form, sublime
A steady player with woeful leadership skills and woeful experience.
Stamina: feeble Wicket Keeping: woeful
Batting: respectable Concentration: competent
Bowling: worthless Consistency: worthless
Fielding: feeble

They're nothing special, but they've got the basics and you only need to give them one batting net (although I'll give them some stamina training eventually) but they're solid and in a couple of 18 week seasons they'll have 3 extra levels of batting without you hardly having to do anything. There should be a few of these players on the market on a Tuesday (ie when people do their YP and list them straight off).

Thought i may aswell post my team here so that people can have a good laugh

my best players are all 17, and i have 4, so that kinda sucks, would be good to be training 2 people, but oh well, cant complain too much.

My nets -

Hocking
1 batting
1 fielding

Hiller
1 Batting
1 Fielding

Poke
1 Bowling
1 Fielding

Wikus
1 Bowling
1 Fielding
1 Stamina

Baker
1 Stamina

What should i do over next season to improve?

 

[Scaly piscine]

I wouldn't bother with fielding nets personally (unless it turns out that it's a really important factor in FC cricket) and especially as none of those players are all-rounders, you'll get 2 fielding pops and one extra useful con pop a year for a young player - fielding hardly seems to makes a difference in OD cricket and one con pop a year is hardly worth noting.

Um unless I'm completely mis-informed, don't they improve the conc pop times?

 

[Adamc]

They do, but not by much any more. A 17yo with primary+fielding net will get about two con pops per season, as opposed to one pop if they don't have the fielding net, so it really only adds one pop per season as he said.

 

[ash chaulk]

hey thanks everyone for the help this is awesome.

Ah good, my secondaries on my trainees are higher then primaries anyway. Thanks

Hope you guys don't mind if I post mine now, but am off to bed, hopefully some of the English members could give me an idea or two.

this is my top team in batting order

Basically you need some batters with some stamina. All your batsmen except Pollard are going to slow down noticeably between 50 and 100. This isn't so much of a problem if they're batting at 5 or 6, but it is if they're at the top of the order. Also you've two bowlers who have crap stamina - Viljoen would take more nets than they're worth probably and they'll perform worse than a solid mediocre bowler as they are. Street will also perform badly in games because they're a fast bowler and only have abysmal stamina, but they're probably worth the effort - but it'll take a while to get them sorted so they're performing to their skill levels. Your other 3 bowlers are solid and young, so there is the bright side, it's mainly the batting you should look at. Dunno what your finances are like so you might be limited as to what you can do, but you should be able to pick up some small 20-30k sort of range buys that have competent primary and feeble/mediocre secondaries and stamina that you can replace some of the players I've mentioned.

Drench captains, Parr keeps, and a bowling order of Dunne, Canning, Fernando, Tedstone, Erasmus.
Canning on 2 bat, 2 bowl, one fitness, Tedstone on one bat, one bowl, Fernando on one bowl, Kilkenny on one bat, Parr on one keeping.

Depends what you want to do with Canning really, if you're not going to sell him then I'd cut him back to 1 bat, 1 bowl, 1 fitness. I'd then give one batting net to Griffin. One bowling net to Erasmus. Personally I'd take Parr off their one keeping net, mainly because they're always going to be fairly crap because they're feeble batting - so with the strength of your side you should be looking at a competent or respectable batting with the same sort of keeping skill at least. Once you bought or pulled that player you'd then wonder why you bothered wasting nets on your reject. With your new keeper you'd also get some use out of the secondary pops if you trained them in keeping, because they're a decent bat.
