That is amazing! Must've pumped a lot of nets into him when he was 17 I guess.
 
Sorry for the delay, tables have now been updated as well as everything else that has been posted.
 
I finally feel like a true battrick player!!! (I hope)

I have a match next week which will pretty much determine if I get relegated or not and after reviewing that teams match reports ive noticed that he has no spinners in his side, so im going to set my pitch to dusty so two of my bowlers have an advantage while none of his do
 
I think I should inform you of a few facts:
A) Dusty aids Spinners, M, FM and F in that order, although not in the way you would expect.
B) Spinners will NOT take more wickets on a dusty. Most of the time. They will, however, bowl more economically than they would on any other pitch on the same orders/
C) Cloudy/Humid conditions will always help M bowlers no matter what conditions.
D) It may worth experimenting the following:
-If your spinners are Steady-Defensive, set them on defensive orders and let them both bowl in the final overs (B4&5 finish orders would work well here). Set them on Defensive/V.Defensive.
-If they are Destructive/Attacking, gamble and set them on V.Attacking/Attacking orders and let them bowl in the middle overs.
E) Generally Spinners in the game tend to need higher consistency to do better. Quickies can do well with higher primaries, but spinners and M with higher consistency. And if you intend on setting a player on attacking orders, make sure they have either a really high primary (+2 of the average batsman in thier team atleast) or a nice high secondary and decent primary.

Some valuable wisdom there. Use it well. :p
 
Yup some good wisdom thr.
Spinners r always more economical. and they usually perform best at v.def (my experience) never tried an attacking/destructive spinner yet.....

Secondries and also STAMINA r really important for bowlers especially.

and about tht elite player he is still being trained in batting as some of u might not know but thr r higher levels than elite like elite+ elite++ elite+++
its not finite its infinite.......

but ofcourse wages then become too much to afford.....
 
Well for me I play 2 spinners and they are both always on Very Attacking...thats when they do the best for me and they are economical too... no mater what pitch:)
