Well he's very nearly proficient so 612k is pretty reasonable going by the market's recent standards.

Although having said that stuff is going cheaper as I've mentioned very recently, there was also a superb-feeble 20yo bat with woeful stamina who went for 1.08m which I thought was fairly cheap as well.

He's now at 675k.

Guess I'm just a little apprehensive spending that much on a currently resp bat.

Replied and posted some stats. Makes for quite interesting reading.

Wickets fallen in first 40 overs, batting first: 38
Wickets fallen in last 10 overs, batting first: 55

Average partnership in first 40 overs, bat first: 45.07
Average partnership in last 10 overs, bat first: 9.81

Edit: that was for close matches in WI Premier. Adding the close ones in England premier, the numbers are:

Wickets fallen in first 40 overs, batting first: 55
Wickets fallen in last 10 overs, batting first: 98

Average partnership in first 40 overs, bat first: 56.70
Average partnership in last 10 overs, bat first: 9.65

I saw a 17yo resp bat with feeble stamina and concentration go for 76.5k a few days ago. His wage was a bit over 1,000. Was tempted to buy him myself but for the complete lack of training space...
