FTP | International cricket in 2001

I thought I was the only one who noticed this. @NaviN GandhI you don't have to post in 3rd-person POV everytime. It feels weird even though it is supposed to be "in character"
It is suppose to be like a post match interview with the captain. Anyway I will stop it...:eyesrolling:
 
I noticed and saw something he wanted to do as character work and enjoyed it.
I enjoy it too but don't think every little comment needs to be put in the form of a statement or anything. Like I said, just a suggestion

I like doing interviews have done for some leagues, even started in this but not able to do it now due to work load. So I don't know when I started it, I made Faas character talk when posting line ups and it became a habit. I thought it will be better that just saying "well played".. just using him to justify the team changes, or to reply for others comments.

If he is announcing lineups or commenting on matches that's good, official business is okay too imo.

Like Naman said continue.

I like doing interviews have done for some leagues, even started in this but not able to do it now due to work load. So I don't know when I started it, I made Faas character talk when posting line ups and it became a habit. I thought it will be better that just saying "well played".. just using him to justify the team changes, or to reply for others comments.
Please do continue; from a league runner's POV, it is mildly infuriating when a manager simply thanks the match post, doesn't even leave a comment, and says "same" or "unchanged" when asked for a lineup. Seeing someone put in effort like you do is a really nice change of pace, and a much needed one at times.

NETHERLANDS PLAYING XI FOR 1st TEST AGAINST PAKISTAN

:bat: Huib Nickson
:bat: Arnout Lauman
:bat: Rinus Neman
:bat: Faas Vermeulen :c:
:wkb: Jan Jansen
:bat: Hermanus Visscher
:bat: Donald Bomkamp
:ar: Rick de Graaf
:bwl: Tyler de Lange
:bwl: Arie Rosencrans
:bwl: Martijn van Gorder

Faas: This pitch is completely opposite to what we played our ODI's in, this will assist the bowlers well. So we are bringing in Hermanus to strengthen our batting lineup.

It feels weird
Le Faas after every match : Let's talk

Even I saw those articles, they were funny and maybe I do talk much but I feel as a captain it's my responsibility to let my fellow country men and women, who love cricket understand what is actually going on away from the pitch and the reasons behind certain decisions we take.
