Tait and Howlett got botted but still wages gone  ;D

[Maca24]

They're the same summary though Maca...

Therefore not much separating them...
They're both capable summary and therefore I thought NBB gave him the edge.

Yes I know how it works ive been playing for a while. lol.
You are right, im just saying talents are great, but a player with better skills is ultimately better.

FOR NAILS:
Right now you've got 6 Batters (including Keeper) so not many decisions besides orders here :P. Could move Sweeney up although he'll be at more risk to be more fatigued during the matches and in the week.

1. Animesa Yogish on Defensive (Due to A little higher Tech and being one of your best bats).
2. Andrew Dickson.
3. Rene Simon (Best bat usually goes at 3).
4. Owen Oxenford (Spin Specialist means he should do well coming in around now).
5. Jamie Sweeney (Keeper but he has a little better Endurance to be able to bat here).
6. Samuel O'Brien (Worst Batter).
7. Bryan Addison/Caleb Salah (Bat him a little lower)/Dennis Dyson (Variety).
8. Kumarila Pasuma. FM
9. John Greig. Wristy
10. Billy Maddox (Atrocious Batting but a tad more power). FM
11. Asif Ud-Din (Atrocious Batting = Last). FS

Bowlers a little harder. 3 were Certain (Ud-Din, Maddoz and Greig). Others not so much :-\. You have the potential to do well on an Uneven, Hard (If you trust your batters) or a Crumbling (Need a little more batting depth or better batters do go Crumbling).

For spells:
Maddox - 1 & 6
Pasuma - 2 & 7
Ud-Din - 3 & 8
Other Bowlers (Seamer) - 4 & 9    If Salah though, Swap him with Pasuma's orders.
Greig - 5 & 10

Orders will change depending on pitch. If they favour FM's, go for a few Aggressive. If they favour spinners, go Aggressive for them. I usually do 3 Aggressive/Defensive and 2 of the other one. 5 Spells are on normal. Don't be afraid to do 1-2 more or less but comes with more risk/reward.

I think Salah is underrated here HP because he's a new ball bowler and therefore that talent comes in very handy... Does Addison really get a spot because he's lesser on bowling and batting than everyone!

I'll therefore be bowling Salah spell 1 or 2 to help his talent, what do you think?

I was thinking Greig and Ud-Din should bowl in tandem as they're different spin and different arms = bonus yes?

I think Dennis Dyson should nearly play every game because he's my only medium to keep the runs down.

Is there any point me keeping Addison/O'Brien as they are both pretty ordinary... I could sell/fire them...

Yogish is a gun, he's back to back played innings where he has faced 80 balls... but he has only scored around a SR of 50, but that's stunning as we were bowled out on both occasions, he held up an end so that we could bat for more overs. He has impressed me greatly.

Should I keep Addison/O'Brien as back ups for when the others tire? I think they'll hurt me with their current stats

Thanks for your help HP :)

I said one of those 3 as it will depend on pitch. If you need variety (e.g on a Slow/Green), Go for Dyson. If it's on a crumbling/sticky and you need batting depth, Addison will get the call. Can go with Salah in general with his talent and swap him with Pasuma's orders. NBB is handy and find it (well I have OBB) very handy.

Can play Greig and Ud-Din together. I'm so use to having 2 FS so don't bowl them together but is very workable. Just remember it'll mean bowling a FM with a FM in another spell (= no bonus there).

Dyson and O'Brien are your weakest bowlers. I reckon if you keep an eye out on the market, could improve on them. Can keep them for now. But if you can find somebody better and land them, could be first 2 on the chopping block.

[Nails]

Dyson has got my best figures of late...

he picked up something like a 5-11 when none of my other bowlers fired...

I've got a soft spot for him...

[Justin Bieber]

No rush to get rid of them as they are still only 20 :P.

[Cicjose]

The bowling sides in the canada australia and new zealand games are on top early in the WC

[Nails]

The bowlers on the outer in my side have performed lately and couldn't bring myself to drop any, so I dropped by sixth bat...

I'm going into a slow/windy vs PB with only 5 bats (including the keeper) and 6 bowlers lol :)

Pasuma is a bowler who's a shocking bat... I put most bats on D so they can try and bat out the overs... What do you guys think? I know it's probably a pathetic idea, but I couldn't bring myself to drop Dyson/Pasuma... I'll change it to call heads and bowl first, but that's it.

What do you all think?

[Cicjose]

at the 15 over mark australia on top....

(Hello's rep Currie out for 16 from 32)

[CrowsFan]

18.5   W   Sherriff to Currie : [catch] There's a noise as that goes through to Gessner and Sherriff turns and appeals. Glove? Bat? Currie's arthritic wrists playing up? Doesn't matter, umpire says it's out.
D. Currie c E. Gessner b. M. Sherriff 16 (32b 0x4 0x6) SR:50.00


:'(

[Cicjose]

at the halfway stage NZ looks to be in the most trouble having just lost their 4th wicket

canada have recovered from their poor start with a 50 partnership and;

australia have their most productive over and are sitting comfortably with both batsmen set

[Boomz]

End of over 26 (4 runs) - Pakistan U19(132-3) RR 5.08
B. Muqeem 22 (30b) , J. Shabbir 38 (53b) , A. Lahsu-Permahkit 8-0-35-2

Going pretty well hopefully these 2 can stick around.

I'd say way too many on Defensive on the Slow and too many Bowlers. O'Brien is your worst Bat but is a much needed 6 for your team. I'd drop Pasuma if you want Salah to play, and Dyson keeps a spot due to being a Medium.

I'd personally put Yogish, Sweeney and Salah on Defensive. Maybe keep Greig and Maddox on Aggressive (I'd usually only choose 1 though). The rest are set to normal (as to be more safe and keep the run rate ticking over).

Also, if you want Sweeney to be Captain, I'd suggest batting him at 6. Captain + Keeper takes its toll on fatigue (I know as I'm in a similar situation). I bat mine and 6 and every second week usually have to miss a T20 even then due to not being Rested. Just a suggestion if you want him to play his best for several games.

[Master Q]

You think that's bad.

Because of lost all of my youths, my best player is batting at 3 and bowling, and will probably captain a few games  :P

[Bazinga]

Yeah but fatigue is never an issue with youths, unless they play senior matches.

That killed me last season with Morgan Jr. and Currie :P.

Now have Gallagher coming up and he may do the same ::).
