Picking Overseas Players

[thesweepmaster]

Basically, look at your weakness in your county side. When i was Warwickshire, I got a fast bowler and an all rounder who bowled spin. What side are you btw?(if you are with one side)

Nah i use try to use every team, I was just wondering who everyone was picking.
I just started a new game and need a good bowler but I'm thinking of getting an all rounder, who is a better bowler Pollock, Watson or Kallis.

If you've got the money, then Watson is a very good player.

I know he is good but is his bowling better than pollocks?

 

[thesweepmaster]

ummm.. thats a tough one. From personal experience, Pollock is slightly the better bowler

 

[Dondogz]

yeah i got Pollock and have $43 000 left so I'm either gonna get Cam White for batting and spin so i can leave Munday out while i train him or Wise a 28 yr old pace bowler from Aus.

 

[thesweepmaster]

Cameron White for me all the way. Just make sure that Munday does get an odd game during the season.

Why? Cant i train him for 1-2 seasons?

 

[thesweepmaster]

Well you can, but an odd game would help him improve quicker.

I didn't know that.

Leave Munday out for the season?

You cannot be serious - let me tell you this. He is the best first class spinner you will find. Expensive but consistently takes 6 and 7 wicket hauls for me, usually takes 100-150 wickets for the season every time and he gets called up for England a lot in that too.

Munday is definitely a better spinner than Cameron White, but I suppose if you really want to you can leave him. Why not train him and play him at the same time though?

I'll see how we go without him but i might bring him in if our bowling is dire.

He should return when South Africa have finished their tour. You can check out when the tour finishes on the South African team pages which has the tours dates.

[thesweepmaster]

No, there should be an international fixture list with the fixtures page on there or there is the South African pages which has their records on.
