FTP: From the Pavilion general chat

[Iridium]

So how do skill increases/decreases work? I see a 'The weekly senior training update occurred' entry under Events. Does that mean that every week, some players increase in skills that I've allocated training for?

I had 7 pops this week including two to one player Too bad he's my back up keeper at the moment.

Do you reckon having a specialist keeper or a keeper-batsman is more useful?
My specialist keeper is ordinary bat, accomplished keep, ord field, and reas other three. Also gifted (keeping) and boundary hitter
My keeper-batsman is now cap bat, rel keep, dread field, ord end, acc tech and poor power. Also skilled (keeping)

The specialist keeper is my highest rated player, while my keeper-batsman is my third highest.

I think that's what it means. Same deal for youth players.

Someone?


In my current game, the team I'm playing against were batting quite aggressively (6+ rpo), but they've lost a heap of quick wickets so I should be able to contain them to 280

 

[Iridium]

I got to 287 all out. Once again my lower order failed and I only batted out 44.1 ov. That could very well cost me the game. Considering I was going to over 6 RPO, could have easily added a sizable extra bit of runs on there.

 

[Chewie]

The team I'm playing got to 270 all out off 46.5. I'm at 67/1 from 6.4 overs lol

 

[Iridium]

Well things going quite well, contrary to what I thought. Opposition currently at 90/7 after 20 overs. My captain Garrick with figures of 5-2-9-2. Seems I might just get away with my lower order collapse...

 

[Chewie]

I put my batsmen on aggressive before the match and we're 202/3 after 22 overs chasing 271 lol My best batsman scored 62 off 37 balls.

You've nearly won your match by quite a bit 120/9 now

4845 people watching as well

Yea but the last pair are being quite stubborn and won't get out.

You've pretty much got your game in the bag. Did you set all your batsmen on aggresive? Not a single batsmen with a S/R below 100.00.

 

[Chewie]

I set the top 5 I think

The team that I beat last week by seven wickets in 31 overes just scored 463 and have the opposition at 97/8 lol

Hopefully I'll be at the top of the table after this match.

Just lost another wicket, which puts my all-rounder with ordinary batting in. After him is my keeping with ordinary batting then my 4 bowlers with atrocious batting :/

Hopefully I win before they come into the picture

 

[hedger_14]

Reliable keeping would be good enough. My current keeper is capable batting, accomplished keeping but I'm wanting a accomplished batting with about reliable keeping to replace him.

 

[Iridium]

This last pair is really ticking me off. Just get out!!

 

[hedger_14]

Batting first on a sticky first, 9/0 after 2.2 overs.

 

[Chewie]

My opener just got out for 99 from 77 balls
