[FreddieFan]

You haven't one anything wrong. Look at the ratings, and the team that beat you is far more established, and better than you. It'd be like my club side playing Australia, men against boys.

 

[Left_Hander]

I have a bit of a dilemma. I want to cut down to two stamina nets, but I have possibly three guys I want to train for my team. See I bought this guy:

Steven Pearse - 18 yo, BT Rating=4,643
RH Batsman, RH Spin Bowler, superb batting form, superb bowling form, sublime
A cautious player with superb leadership skills and worthless experience.
Stamina: abysmal Wicket Keeping: worthless
Batting: mediocre Concentration: worthless
Bowling: respectable Consistency: feeble
Fielding: worthless

But I am currently training these guys in stamina:

Roland Hadland - 18 yo, BT Rating=5,922
RH Batsman, RFM Bowler, feeble batting form, superb bowling form, sublime
An attacking player with strong leadership skills and abysmal experience.
Stamina: mediocre Wicket Keeping: worthless
Batting: abysmal Concentration: worthless
Bowling: proficient Consistency: abysmal
Fielding: abysmal

and

Nelson Dunn - 18 yo, BT Rating=12,702
LH Batsman, LM Bowler, superb batting form, superb bowling form, sublime
A steady player with respectable leadership skills and worthless experience.
Stamina: mediocre Wicket Keeping: proficient
Batting: mediocre Concentration: feeble
Bowling: abysmal Consistency: proficient
Fielding: woeful

With me defiently want to train Pearse in stamina, which player should I traina in Stamina, Hadland or Dunn? Any views would be appreciated.

 

[aussie1st]

I'd probably go the keeper as he would need the stamina more.

 

[angryangy]

Probably each of them could use a fielding net to help the secondaries out.

 

[FreddieFan]

Agreed. If stamina would be the only net he was getting, there's no point givin it to Hadland, his consistency is way too low. If you're giving him a bowling and a fielding as well, then give it to Hadland.

Guys , cloudy and humid conitoins . I have option of selecting a spin competent/mediocre bowler and a medium pace mediocre/feeble bowler. Who should i pick? I already have a good spinner in the squad.

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Pitch? If it is H&F or Green then go for the Medium. Anything else, stick with the spinner.

 

[aussie1st]

Isn't H&F more in favour of spinners. That's what this site says anyway.

HARD AND FAST PITCH
Favours batsmen. (from the rules)
Advantages spinners over seamers

[handsome]

well i am confused but that match is over and i bowled them out for 74. Now next match is home and dusty wicket coz i have two competemt spinners. So will go for them.

 

[ZoraxDoom]

H&F suits F bowlers the most. Spinners tend to suffer. In RL, Wrist spinners do well on H&F and Finger spinners struggle. But since that isn't here, spinners struggle on H&F. It is written in the BT rules too if I remember right...
