I've put a bid of 5,500 on him. Hopefully that's enough.

Interesting reading the transfer system. This is exactly the same as the one used on nearlysport fantasy nrl comp. As mentioned the main benefit of that is you don't have to be online 24/7.

How do you find the bowling speed? I notice there is a training option for it but nothing showing bowling speed rating.

How do you find the bowling speed? I notice there is a training option for it but nothing showing bowling speed rating.

The bowling speed is like RL, there's F/FM/MF/M. Within each of them I'm pretty sure it's split up as well, but you can just see F/FM/MF/M.

For example if you put a M bowler on bowling speed, after a while he'll move up to MF, then FM, then F. I think spinners also have a bowling speed behind the scenes as well.

Lol, Hedger's 6 for 2 against Iridium.

 

[hedger_14]

14/3, ████ this is going bad

Iridium, what are your players rated like?

 

[CG123]

Don't worry, I'm currently losing my first OD match to a team ranked like 250 places below me, and I'm playing pretty much my 'A' team.

 

[hedger_14]

Well Maitland is still in there on 16*. Hopefully he can score a century

 

[CG123]

My spinner (92 bowling) is getting wasted. In only three overs he's already gone for 28 runs.

 

[hedger_14]

Starting to get back in it.

End of over 16 (6 runs) First innings of Hedger's Team 45/3 Day 1 - 86 overs remaining
Maitland 19* (48b) Head 24* (30b) Partnership 32 Miller 1-0-6-0 Last wicket: P.N. Lambert Bowled Coppinger 1

 

[CG123]

I'm not. They've now passed 100, and I've still only got one wicket. The good thing is their RR is under control atm.

End of over 25 (3 runs, 1 leg bye) Welby CC innings 107/1 25 overs remaining
St John 51* (74b) Howsin 46* (61b) Partnership 95
Wallace 3-0-10-0 Last wicket: D.N. Kersley Caught Moylan-Jones Bowled Coxon 4

 

[hedger_14]

meh, Maitland out now and I'm 54/4. I do bat down to 8 though

 

[CG123]

Most of the better teams have bowling all-rounders batting down at 9/10.

I play three specialist bowlers, but other than that my top eight all get into my team on their batting merits alone, the ones that bowl are a bonus.

And I'm getting destroyed atm.

 

[CG123]

Lol, I'm versing Syl tomorrow.

----------

Also that player's now got 3 bids on Hedger.

 

[hedger_14]

Well I don't know whether I should bid anymore

----------

Fought back well to be 95/4 at lunch. Head on his way for a fifty.

End of over 34 (1 run) First innings of Hedger's Team 95/4 Day 1 - 68 overs remaining
Knight 19* (42b) Head 48* (85b) Partnership 42
Coppinger 12-2-26-2 Last wicket: H. Maitland Caught Attenborough Bowled Miller 23

 

[aussie1st]

Lol, I'm versing Syl tomorrow.

Hehe just noticed that.

This is a pain in the ass to scout players unless I'm missing something as all I can see is the players stats.

 

[hedger_14]

What do you mean? You can see all the skills of your own players? But yeah, I don't think you can see other player attributes unless they're listed for transfer.

----------

One run. Fifty for Head and he obviously hasn't been counting as he is slow to acknowledge the applause

The commentary is a bit silly though unless he decided to not check his score at lunch cause he was 48* at lunch, scored a run in the first over after lunch and his fifty in the second
