Welcome to the game JT :D. What your team or manager name? Sorry for this long post but......

do you guys focus on youth orr?

Most of us don't but HP and a few others do... Most focus on seniors.

I do it as I had gotten a few very good pulls a while back. I don't buy alot of guys now, If I do 16-18 year olds to stay for a season or two. Can bring in a little extra cash if you win your games but doesn't benefit you alot in the short term.

Seniors are most important to most of us. I focus on my youths, a bit, but seniors come first.

Do this to start. I bought 19 and 20 y.o's when I started and watched them grow. Some of them still play for me and won me a bunch of games in the lower Divisions of Australia.

i already did Australia..

so buy young gun bowlers.

do i buy a few guns or lots of pretty good players?

It is a bowler's game and you can get alot of them on the market. Try to find solid batsman for your team (Cap/Cap (Bat or Bowl/Technique) to start). 20-22 year olds with this stat won't go for much. But Batsman cost alot right now :(.

Depends on how much money you start with. I would start by trying to spend no more than 20-25k on a single player. Also don't look at a player's ratings, look at their stats.

Yep. Try to keep a certain amount you won't go over so you don't blow your money too fast.

I lost by 66  :( i need 2 draft in some more bowlers and batsman.
id also like a keeper/batsman. hmmm  ;)

[Justin Bieber]

Going nicely all of you. Haha Q, guess you've won the game :P.

T20 for me will be going in with a Second String Bowling attack (on a pitch not suited to my Spinners ::)). Throw in 1 Youth Bowler (Casper), 3 Youth Batsman (Currie, Gallagher and Inverarity) and my Youth Keeper (Anderson) and you can see why I will likely lose to Benjy ::).

Frankston XI won by 105 runs

   End of over 20 (1 run) - jindal(145-10). 106 runs required from 0 overs. RR 7.25 RRR 0.00

B. Venugopal 16 (7b) , S. Arman 3.3-0-14-6
      A hattrick for Arman!
19.3   W   Arman to Hitendra : A short rising delivery pitched on the middle and off stump line and angling across. Hitendra goes for the pull and is beaten for pace.
K. Hitendra c C. Ramnarace b. S. Arman 0 (1b 0x4 0x6) SR:0.00
      That is 5 wickets for Arman!
19.2   W   Arman to Venkatraman : Ouch! A great inswinging yorker crashes into Venkatraman's back foot. They all go up in a huge appeal and finally the umpire's finger goes up. Interestingly, not only does the replay show that was going well down leg side, it also shows Venkatraman had limped nearly a whole leg bye before the finger went up. Insult to injury...
K. Venkatraman lbw b. S. Arman 0 (1b 0x4 0x6) SR:0.00
19.1   W   Arman to Bipen : Goes for the big lofted drive, but doesn't time it at all and rather tamely picks out Taylor on the edge of the circle.
K. Bipen c G. Taylor b. S. Arman 28 (20b 2x4 0x6) SR:140.00



how is that for a finish? hat trick to end it off!

Haha. Same here. Have too many Youth Spinners ::).

Too bad I don't like his chances for playing for Australia U19's :(.

[8-6 Suited]

Can't really complain too much though since he wasn't here to bid on him. I wish I had the money because I would have taken him in a second.  :p

GS, put him on bowling training and get him to expert there. he has good secondaries so dont work on them yet. While you go for expert bowling he will pop in Tech so you will be fine. :p Then you will have yourself a Lidgerwood, that doesnt spin.

I have only ever played against 1 opponent who had worse stats than me

My bowling instructions were purely defensive and i got smashed

[Justin Bieber]

Ouch Cic. Not a good Batting or Bowling performace :(. Keep trying to improve the team though :D.

If anybody is looking for a Yotuh bowler, can't go past this guy if he stays at 5k: http://www.fromthepavilion.org/player.htm?playerId=560182
