Jermaine Lawson BEWARE!!!

[Griffo]

He is truly horrible in this game I thought I would just warn any new players to stay away from him. Im currently playing the 7 ODI series against Zimbabwe and his stats are as follows

Jermaine Lawson
ODI
Games - 4
Overs - 29
Runs - 203
Wickets - 4
Runs Per Over - 6.80
Best Figures - 2-41
Average - 50.75

Stay away from him he is bad news!!!​

It's different for every game.

 

[Griffo]

i wouldnt say so because you can talk about other players which ae consistantly good or consistantly bad

e.g. Michael Munday

It depends how you manage your players,He could be very good if you play him the right way.

 

[Griffo]

give an example of a strategy like that

Yes it do vary with the way u manage him. Small example is, for me, R.Johnson remained as a dangerous bowler for Somerset with whom i ended with 150+ wickets in one season. But the same Johnson is struggling to get wickets for Kooka which i can see very well in his story. So it depends.

how did you use him differently???

May be becos of bowling nets+stamina nets i used to give him.. I am not sure whether those trainings stuffs work out in ICC game but it satisfy me though with their performances. And also, it depends on the line and length you set during the bowling...i used to vary a lots even in single over and sometimes even the angle( around the wicket) tactics also comes handy.

He becomes no.1 bowler for west indies in the later years.
but yes stay away from him for first 2 season.

 

[Griffo]

but have you had any experiences with Lawson???

 

[hassan]

Johnson was bad for me i just never played him for Somerset.
Any tips on how to use Pakistani fast bowlers properly.

To 'use' a player well, you pretty much have to play them well. If you take a defensive batsman and put him on aggressive when he has low confidence, he's not gonna star. Similarly, if you get a bowler to bowl the wrong line or length or field, he won't do as well.

 

[Griffo]

Anyone got stats for Lawson late in his career? a screenie maybe?

 

[Hooper]

No, but I've just started a WI International game and he is pretty average. He isn't a real wicket taker, and he goes for a lot of runs when he does get wickets.
