FC- Week 3

[blues_r_best]

The fitness hits are hiuge and I'm starting to think you need to aim for minimum:

All Rounders - Superb
Bowlers - Strong
Batsmen - Proficient

if you're going to put out a strong team in every match.

I'd go along with except for WK/Bats, I reckon they might need Strong as well.

I'd say that respectable for batmen is the minimum, Bartlett has played every game so far and hasn't dropped from sublime

And back to my game, two wickets in two balls means my bowlers will have to bowl again if they haven't enforced the follow on.
End of Over 81 (3 runs). Southend United: 355-8, runrate=4.38
Trail by 247 runs. (Royal Bruisers 602-5 dec)
Patterson 5-1-18-2
Plummer* 5 (20 balls)
Mapes 0 (2 balls)

Last Wicket: Malik b. Patterson 0 (FOW: 355/8)

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

We're in the lead !! Need to bat until after tea-time I would guess to avoid defeat.

I'd say that respectable for batmen is the minimum, Bartlett has played every game so far and hasn't dropped from sublime

He never bats for very long though.... :p

My bowling stars are settling nicely into FC. Suthers' wickets with Cooky's economy are quite a lethal combination:

Match Figures:
Name O M R W nb wd
Sutherland 29 5 73 10 0 1
Cook 26 12 28 5 1 0

My next highest wicket taker was 'run out'!

Akram, Hitchman and Khotosolang will be bowling the 110 overs today! I have got away with it in this game! :D Fitness levels looked good before the match so should have 2 strong teams for the 2 50-over games coming up!

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Lunch-time here too, and I think I might need to dope test my batters, as they are belting along at nearly 5 an over when we are trying to save the game!

[MrB]

Would anyone bother training this guy in WK?

Brad Lamey - 17 yo, BT Rating=5,238
RH Batsman, LM Bowler, mediocre batting form, superb bowling form, changeable
An attacking player with respectable leadership skills and abysmal experience.
Stamina: mediocre Wicket Keeping: feeble
Batting: respectable Concentration: mediocre
Bowling: worthless Consistency: worthless
Fielding: woeful

Figuring one net for three seasons will get him to superb which is only a level lower than my current WK. If I single net him till he's 22 he should get to around exceptional.

Can't decide whether to do it or not.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Depends how much he is ?

Looking like 2 defeats out of 3. My own fault for declaring (in hindsight) way too early, should have batted on to 500 at least. Oh well, you live and learn.
