Using Joe Bloggs

[whiteninness]

hey, in a couple of the rosters I have downloaded, i have noticed that the Joe Blogs spots have been used to create actual players. in the pakistan one i have, all 3 have been used so the squad size is 18 instead of 15. the thing is, the last 3 players in the squad when viewed by the player editor, don't appear in the actual game when you go to choose a team.

so,

firstly, is there a way so that all 18 can be shown and selected in game

secondly, if there isnt a way, why would people bother editing over the Joe Blog spots if those players wouldnt show up anyway?

The answer is they can be selected for different modes by using the Lineup Editor so you can have players in the ODI team who aren't in the test squad and vice versa.

which ofcourse limits all selection changes to the lineup editor, not in game.

Noty entirely as you can still pick from two different squads effectively.
For example make player 16, 17, 18 ODI only and put them into the actual lineup for ODI but not test. You'll then have two different squads.

yeh, im using an aussie roster that i downloaded and it has 2 more joe blogs spaces left. Ive made Jaques out of one and ill probably turn the other one into maybe Cullen or Hopes or sumone.

i tried putting Stuart Clark, Mick Lewis and Stuart MacGill but all the names are Bob Doublener and he bowles fast and is really bad (rating) any solutions?
