I just hope my move of bringing Foster in was a good one.I always counted him as one of the best keepers around

Are you being serious?

He's like England's fifth best keeper, and he probably wouldn't even be in the top 20 keepers in the world IMO.

 

[Varun]

Would like to take Shakib Al Hasan,you can take Nicky Boje or Simon Katich or Lance Klusener

No.

I meant keeping skills his batting skills need improving but after being dropped from international once he didn't get a second chance(not many dropped english players did) which he should have imo.Shame keeping skills are not counted in simulation.And he has got experience in English domestic.Better than Gareth Hopkins at least


Wait a minute:

1.Prior
2.Davies
3.Kieswetter
4.????
Who's the fourth keeper?

Hopkins averaged 15 in ODI cricket at a S/R of 76, while Foster averaged 14 in ODI cricket at a S/R 58.

I'm not sure why you brought Hopkins into this anyway, I'm guessing it's because I'm a New Zealander, but in doing so you kind of failed.

I have better things to do than research England's ODI keeping problems, hence why I said he's LIKE England's fifth best keeper. LIKE can be used as a similar meaning to roughly, so that could mean he's their 4th best keeper, or he's their 6th best keeper.

Chris Read averages 18 in ODI cricket at a S/R of 73, so I'd put him ahead of Foster.

No,I brought Hopkins cause I count him as a 4th/3rd best keeper for New Zealand.I count Reece Young better than Hopkins in fact.Other than Hopkins I guess he is better than Mushfiqur Rahim?And No,I have nothing against New Zealand or you or Hopkins he just came into my mind while writing that post.Sorry if I offended you

 

[Chewie]

Hopkins performs very admirably with the bat domestically. Rahim is one of Bangladesh's best batsmen.

Foster I rate as the best glovesman in England, but batting wise he's a decent way down the list. He'd be the equivalent of a Graham Manou

Lol, you didn't offend me.

It was just a strange comparison to make, because the way you posted your original post made it seem like you thought Foster was one of the best keepers in the world.

 

[Near]

Rahim is one of Bangladesh's best batsmen ,now, he improved quite a bit.I mean when he started out he wasn't this good.But stats wise domestically Foster is better than Geraint Jones but Internationally he is in the back seat but Hopkins does have a good Domestic record like Foster


Keeper skill wise:Foster is one of the best IMO after the international stars like Sangakkara and Mccullum
Batting wise:He needs some work

 

[Dipak]

Ypu can take Lou Vincent Even he can keep. Or Nial O'Brien. Mushfiqur Rahim, Tatena Taibu???

Keeping skills don't count in cricksim so Foster won;t do good

 

[Dragon Fire]

Is there still a spare team available?

 

[Dipak]

Sorry but no, I will inform you if any team gets available.

 

[Near]

FA Trade:

Mushfiqur Rahim in James Foster out

Was a tight choice between Rahim,Taibu,O'Brien and Bagai

 

[tarun87]

Misbah Ul Haq

misbah is in my team from previous season how you pick him

 

[Dipak]

whops, I messed up the list.
