He is a beast as well! Look at the Technique and Endurance! Combine that with his seam bowling and this bloke will be unstoppable!

Reckon I should promote these two players straight away - they are better then half the blokes in my senior team already!

My best senior player (Ironic that he is just 18):

[B]Bats Left hand batsman Bowls Left arm Medium[/B]

Batting [B]average[/B] Bowling [B]ordinary[/B]

The next Ryan Crouch. Needs a bit of Endurance, but is pretty good otherwise. Can keep too, though I doubt I'll need it.
Got some other good players in the Senior team, but he's the stand out.

And then two future superstars in my Youth team. Both just 16...

And...

[B]Bats Left hand batsman Bowls Right arm Fast[/B]

The Leggie needs some endurance, but has great bowling and technique to start with. The second just needs some power and technique, but has endurance and skill. And they are a Wrist Spinner and a Fast bowler! The rarest types! They are gonna be brill!

The server seems real poor for me so still waiting to activate and see my team. Very exciting.

 

[Leicester Fox]

How do people rate this compared to battrick? Is it completely different, better or miles behind? I'm still waiting for my team and I know if I get a really bad team it will have to be a very good game for me to carry on playing it!

 

[pal]

Battrick's definitely better, but FTP's just starting out, so it might improve quickly in the coming weeks.

 

[voldemort]

I wont show my team...

 

[Pak_cricketer]

I can't wait for my first two games tomorrow. First with Briggs and then with Denton County Cricket Club. A twenty20 and then a OD.

 

[GrayNicolls]

Ha, I've got w3lshrugby first up. I've also got TheDon and Maxkarter in my leagues.

0.4 W Ali to Watson : A loose delivery from Ali pitched wide outside the off stump. Watson leans back and cuts hard, ending up with a feather touch and Abbas holds on well to a fairly hard chance.


Watson c Abbas b. Ali 0 (2b 0x4 0x6) SR:0.00

Hmmm..what a great start in my match:

_______________________

Now this is where Iam liking FTP, the actual match. The structure during matches is much more polished then Battrick's. You can also see the scorecard any time during the match which is a bonus!

Yeah it's something we are investigating. I now have the ability to report that the server is down so if it does go down please report it and we will try get it back up as soon as possible.
