Brought this player for $125000 and it seems like this is the biggest mistake made till now. He can be good later on if I invest hugely in my senior academy but he leaves me with no cash. So I can't buy any more players and don't know what will happen in finance update as my wages are way more than sponsorship.
Well I bidded on him accidently.

[jdeus]

where would moxley go if you get him?

 

[hedger_14]

Probably 6, then push everybody at 6 and below down one and drop Murubi so I'll have 2 left arm pacers, 2 right arm pacers and 1 spinner. Or I might drop de Groot and have 2 of my bowlers bowl 5 overs each.

 

[jdeus]

He'll be like your main man wont he??

Why not push him a lil higher with his batting? no.4?

 

[hedger_14]

Yeah, I'm not sure yet. I just want some stability in the middle order just in case I lose some quick wickets.

 

[hedger_14]

Sold Habeebullaah for $86,821. Iridium didn't get him though.

Got a fair bit of money to bid on Dekkers now. Any money I can get to bid on is good. Just need to sell my other 2 players for good amounts although it's going to be really annoying if I just don't have enough money before the end of the auction.

 

[Chewie]

I've been guaranteed a bid of 1.5 million on Dekkers so you'll need to have more than that if you want him

 

[hedger_14]

I only have about 1.7M to spend

 

[Iridium]

Bit of a shame with Habeebullaah. Would have been a great addition to my squad. But I'd rather sleep than wait up to bid on a player.

I'm loving my finance page at the moment.

I need 50k a week to break even. 49k once Dekkers is gone. And even less once/if my other players on the TM sell. Hopefully with my new 7.5k stadium I can break even each week. The Pavilion Cup will help in the first two weeks, especially since my first round opponent apparently has a 70k stadium despite being only in division 4 in Bangladesh. Second round match is a home one and that should sell out, especially since it's against a high seed and a Cup match
