yes, a small role but a role nonetheless

 

[ZoraxDoom]

I am looking for a good keeper as I am playing Rampaul as Keeper everytime whose stamina is woeful now.

My doubt is, does the fielding attribute plays any role for keeper?

I believe so. From my experience, they concede slightly less byes and help in carrying out stumpings.

 

[angryangy]

Yeah, concentration and consistency both play a role in fielding as well as keeping, so a keeper with a bit of bowling talent might not be such an awful thing.

 

[aussie1st]

I have one with Component bowling talent, so there is hope of making him into a super all rounder yet

 

[ZoraxDoom]

What is the point, he can't keep and bowl at the same time

 

[aussie1st]

Well if I find a decent keeper then he can bowl But yea most likely he'll be a middle order keeper/batsmen.

I am having another doubt,

* I have a player getting two batting nets, and his stamina is feeble.. What wud be the maximum no of matches i can play him continuously? i.e i want to know when to rest this player like one match rest for every 4 matches played continuously.

 

[voldemort]

2 nets isnt much of a problem if you TIE for all matches...

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Keep checking his PFL regularly, and rest him when you feel it is too low. Your choice really, different people think different levels of PFL are low.

I need some training advice. Bill Stiles

Bill Stiles - 19 yo, BT Rating=29,165

A steady player with respectable leadership skills and woeful experience.
Stamina: superb Wicket Keeping: woeful
Batting: superb Concentration: competent
Bowling: respectable Consistency: proficient
Fielding: abysmal

Popped to Superb batting this week. This leaves me a free net. I could:

1. Keep it on Stiles's batting
2. Give it to Stiles's bowling (he's a pretty high respectable I think)
3. Give it to Muir (currently on no nets, see below) on batting
4. Give Dodd (see below) a fitness net
5. Give Dodd (see below) a fielding net
6. Give Ludlam (see below) a third bowling net.

Dodd a fielding net to pop up that consistency.

Wouldn't worry about it at all. If he's in the middle or lower order and doesn't bowl, it'd be very unlikely that he couldn't handle whatever you throw at him. It really only becomes a problem when he's a pretty good batsman and can frequently bat for quite a while. That might start to drain him.

Like Zorax said, his PFL will tell you when he's looking tired, so no surprises.

Sell one of your trainees FF. You got too many. With 3 trainees, you'll be able to train them better.

Most of them aren't trainees, they're just people in my squad who could take a free net that came up.

I actually thought of an option I didn't list - I've given Stone his second bowling net back. Will probably be Quality when he turns 20. Add Dodd and Ludlam who'll both be Wonderful at 20 and my bowling attack might even rival Zorax's

heres what i am doing is it right?
milin hameed has the highest rating but feeble field ing so i am giving him 11 fielding session in nets

* Firstly there are only 10 nets session applicable. According to battrick, even if you have more than 10, only the first 10 wud be effective.

* Next, Battrick rating doesn't means everything..its the skills which matters.

batting - competitive/medio
concentration - competitive/medio
consistency - competitive/medio

The player with above minimum skills is likely to bat better

* Then in training nets, rather than keeping all as fielding nets, it wud be better if you identify the batsmen & bowlers who need training and train them accordingly.


I wud suggest, go through the Rules option in Help menu in battrick as its very very helpful.
