From the Pavilion

[Cyrus]

I have a bit of dilema, my wages at the moment mean I'm losing money with academies and stuff thrown in. I'm convinced I'm not going to last in Div 1 beyond this season, should I just sacrifice this year and go for experience


For example DiNozzo. I love him but it might be better served tossing him and getting some experience into Sicco Harms and Kuhlengisa


But the real dilema I have is Pickett [size=78%]http://www.fromthepavilion.org/player.htm?playerId=178092[/size] There's no doubt he won't play for me next year. Do I take him out and sell him now and replace him with Zia? [size=78%]http://www.fromthepavilion.org/player.htm?playerId=717902[/size]. Or do I fight on and try and hold my place in One Day? Because I'm pretty sure if I sell I'll drop from there too.

I would sell now for 3 reasons,
1. yes you may drop but you will save $$$
2. you will get more $$$ for them now
3. gets EXP into the players of the future

Won by 10 wickets tonight :D

Bowled first on a flat and restricted them to 6 for 231. Then in reply Wilkinson (111 from 89 balls) and Sloane (112 from 96 balls) chased that down in 29.5 overs without losing a wicket :)

Thanks to Shaggy and my dumb (should have waited until the auction ended) counter bidding I paid a bit more for this guy than I wanted...

But he'a a primary beast still regardless. 21st highest wage on a 20yo in FTP.

Will take him to accom fielding this season which should see him as outs/outs/accom by EOS.

OH YEH!!!   My youth squad got its first win yesterday.

The bowlers had a target to defend and managed to defend the total by keeping the run rate down, restricting the opposition to 4/240 from their 40 overs

T. Keerthiratne was the pick of the bowlers with 2/44
