Thanks mate, I'll pop him on a fielding net now.

Nice pop this morning. Only picked this guy up yesterday on the transfer market. Put him on a fielding net as suggested and a stamina net and today got this:

Ben Faulconbridge
Age: 25 Years Old
Battrick Rating: 30,695 (+1072)

Stamina: superb Wicket Keeping: abysmal
Batting: strong Concentration: feeble
Bowling: quality Consistency: respectable
Fielding: feeble

Just a question, once he's popped to superb is there any point training him a bit longer for stamina or will he stay there for quite a while now?

Do you guys remember your players skills or does it say somewhere if they pop? I don't remember my players skill levels, so I don't know whether they popped or not.

Unless you have membership you just have to remember them. I just copy and paste their stats into a notepad document each week, makes it easier. Anywho...

Atstumps ftw. Pretty good little tool and gives a decent idea of when players will pop.

Yeah I realise that, I just wondered if it stays there now indefinitely or if it's slightly realistic in that in real life if you stopped training as soon as you reached peak stamina then you obviously wouldn't stay at that level very long.

I thought you could get stamina+6 if you keep them on a stamina net????
