This is my current lancashire side,and is without a doubt the strongest side i have ever had(most are regens)
Name Bat Bowl
M.Stevenson 55.22 36.77(149 wickets) -england captain
P.Winters 33.87 - good potential
G.Brindell 49.84 - England contracted
J.Price 41.51 - consistent performer
G.Lampard 39.69 - from essex,brilliant player
J.Dixon 46.70 - talented youngster(aus overseas)
J.Hutchinson 38.98 - gilchrist regen?(aus overseas)
A.Douglas 16.01 21.25 england bowler,useful bat
S.Broad 8.03 23.17 absolute god of a bowler
G.Eddery 10.19 20.83 england bowler,poor bat
A.Tyson 3.05 15.43 AMAZING bowler,proper no.11

all but lampard,dixon,broad and hutchinson came from the youth team,also have 11 other players good enough for any other team(9 from youth team)

I'm playing as Lancashire at the moment. What season is that in? i dont recognize any of those players, maybe just because there all youth players. :

[Jaztheman]

2024,only one left from 2006 is stuart broad

He must be quite old then?

 

[lancashire666]

[offdriven4]

he's 38,and still took over a hundred wickets last year

 

[warrior123]

ahh thanks for the year, over 100 wickets at 38? lets see if he can do it again.

 

[offdriven4]

Matthew Wood, the one from somerset, did very well for me with ICC 2006, as did some youngsters of course, had one averaging over 60 until his 29th, than getting out of form as soon as I got him in form, because of international duty, pity!
Further, Munday did very well, but you should give him 2/3 years of bowling technique and he can become a reasonable nr 8 if you give him a bit of batting technique
James Hildreth also gets quite good, with some technique... (as you may suspect, I played somerset, 2006-2026... overseas players, Afridi is very good one season next season rubbish... as is Shane Watson, I usually pick sri lankan bowlers as my youth batsmen are good and bowlers suck...

 

[lancashire666]

yet another person who has had success with munday, prob the best spiner in the game for me!

 

[offdriven4]

panesar has been a better spinner for me tbh,always seems to get 90-100+ wickets a season and 5-6 wickets at least in test matches

 

[lancashire666]

yea monty isnt bad either, i havea monty/munday partnership in every test match now and they can destroy teams on a wicket which isnt turning. both great spinners, only sri lanka have spinners as good as england on my game now

 

[offdriven4]

i rotated between the two,monty became number one took over 400 test wickets,then dropped him and played monday who took over 400 wickets aswell,since flintoff(no other decent allrounders,tried so many and gave up) retired i played 3 quicks and a spinner(munday or monty),but now play 4 quicks

Stupid England selectors... (I don't play international usually) Munday was by far the best spinner in England in my game, they selected some stupid regen who was in my squad as well, whom I didn't select... in two test games he played in his career Munday took about 16 wickets... and even after doing so they didn't select him again...
Well, I couldn't care much, because thanks to that I could win some games ^^
