I would give him for free, but I can't. So $1000 or whatever he goes for is fine. I'll list him now.

You can find mid-to-old competent-to-respectable players for under 10k everywhere.

Trainee-wise, 17yo med/comps are everywhere again for around 5k.

What is the time and can you change it? How if so? I understand the time up the top is there, but how do I know what the date is?

How important is stamina training? I have 10 net sessions, and 4 are batting, 4 are bowling, 1 wicketkeeping and 1 fielding. If I fire a batting coach and a bowling coach, and hire stamina coaches, would it be better than the batting and bowling coaches? I have 17 year olds on my batting and 17 year olds and a 18 year old.

What should these players be on or is that wrong? Also, I don't do any stamina training, should I bring that in and sacrifice something here?

Well, there you go. I reckon a MINIMUM trainee should be a 17yo mediocre/competent.

You're getting there, but I think you're better off ditching most of your trainees and buying in some better ones. Someone said that you'd probably get another £50k next update -- I suggest you use it on buying 3 or 4 trainees, Competent/Mediocre or above, all with at least Feeble stamina.

Seriously, you NEED secondary skills and stamina -- there's no point having a decent bat if he's got not concentration, and without any stamina, he's going to get knackered after about 5 runs.

BTW, have you employed some Sports Psychologists? Just checking -- you need them, or you won't get any secondary boosts from your primary nets.

Nope. He's rubbish -- it'll take YEARS for his concentration to come up to scratch, and almost as long for his stamina to improve. Seriously, get rid. There may be some mug out there who'd buy him, but I wouldn't count on it.

Better. However, with 17yo Competent/Mediocre batsmen going for £10k or so, you'd be much better off buying one of those.

More like it. If you're lucky, he might even be a high mediocre.


Trust me -- with those trainees, you're not going to be much better in 2 seasons' time than you are now. With decent ones, you'll have a clutch of Respectable+ players with decent conc/cons and stamina, who should start winning you the odd game.

No thanks. I will pass on both.

I've went for about 15 players in the past day, and I haven't got 1. The better players I'm going for now are bloody hard to get, especially with a different school and sleep routine to lots of other users, especially from different countries and who don't go to school or have a job, or who have way more free time than me.
