18.6   W   Leak to Abdel : [catch] Oh dear! That's not the way to play a reverse sweep. Top edged it straight up in the air and a regulation catch.
Z. Abdel c S. Grant b. D. Leak 97 (54b 11x4 1x6) SR:179.63
my so called worst bat does it again  ;)

Fair start with the ball too  8)

1.3   W   Raja to Hale : Raja gets that one to cut sharply off the seam. Hale sticks his bat out in hope but can only manage to get a faint edge. Bradshaw dives to his right and takes that one just inches from the turf much to the delight of Raja. Hale can't believe his luck and begins the long walk back to the sheds.
B. Hale c J. Bradshaw b. K. Raja 1 (5b 0x4 0x6) SR:20.00

That is why I wished friendlies took fatigue into account... I'd be rating ~144K right now full strength!

[Maca24]

Thats because you always play bots....
Can't wait till I get a batsman and seamer. should easily rate 160k and have younger squad  8)

[Nails]

Bots are mostly T20 :P only 2 bots in SOD (maybe 3)

but at least I'd be closer to a lot of you in FFPL2 this year Maca :(

Fatigue for friendlies... if only..

Should be an option when you make tournaments IMO.

Why would you want fatigue in friendlies nails? Friendlies are so you can see what you would rate at full strength without fatigue!

[Nails]

So I can get some wins against you nubs :P

I'm tempted to buy a 31yo spec batter for 1-2 seasons... am I being stupid? Would definitely help me promote this season and be good for a little while next season

Maybe like him?
