Depends what you would do with the money though.

And you could sell, buy two players for 1.5m who will be worth nearly as much each, if not more. He's good, but he's not got any x-factor at all. If you get guys with nearly as good skills, who are fast or wristies - or if they've got more useful talents, they'll be the ones that fetch the really huge cash. It's supply and demand, there are lots of very good finger spinners around - I've got two that don't even make the U19s (accomplished-capable skilled bowler and new ball bowler, reliable-reliable skilled bowler - both have reasonable endurance and ordinary fielding but weak batting)

How much do you guys invest in your youth academies? I was just wondering what a reasonable figure to start of with, would be, good enough to see some improvement, but little enough not to bankrupt me.

Scaly piscine · 16-09-2008, 10:32 AM

I invest 120k a week over the two academies.

I'd imagine almost anyone should be able to invest around half that and get decent returns.

Majin · 16-09-2008, 11:23 AM

I'd go bankrupt in a month if I invested even half of that

Bobisback · 16-09-2008, 10:35 PM

100k into my youths a week.

NZTailender · 16-09-2008, 11:04 PM

40k into both, slowly losing money each week.

Scaly piscine · 22-09-2008, 08:20 AM

2 pops across 25 youths... takes some doing that.

Anyway my best YP in a while:

dontcloseyoureyes · 22-09-2008, 08:27 AM

Bunch of pops, majority of which were on tech.

NZTailender · 22-09-2008, 05:33 PM

Couple of endurance pops, 1 batsman popped to accomplished though.

Adamc · 22-09-2008, 09:01 PM

Haven't really been paying attention, but I pulled this guy last week:

Asterix XI >> Leroy Harris >> Details
Player Details
Team (Youth) Asterix XI Talents New Ball Bowler, Skilled (Batting)
Bats Right hand batsman Bowls Right arm Medium

Shame he's only a med though. Youth squad has become bloated again so I've got seven players on the market.

dontcloseyoureyes · 23-09-2008, 09:11 AM

Have 4 capable bowlers on the market at the moment, 3 of which are 19.

Drop in, have a yarn, make a bid.

Majin · 24-09-2008, 10:03 AM

End of over 20 (11 runs) - Dai-Gurren Brigade(172-2) RR 8.60
V. Miller 10 (10b) , L. Abraham 94 (62b) , C. Persad 2-0-18-0

cruising the youth game, Abraham is a legend in the making

EARLOBE · 25-09-2008, 01:49 AM

Is anybody still in the cup? I got knocked out in round 5.

chaminda_00 · 25-09-2008, 02:13 AM

Out of the cup.

Hey guys is 21 too young to train someone on power/strength?

EARLOBE · 25-09-2008, 02:54 AM

Not really. It trains fastest when they're in their mid twenties, but if he really needs it then you may as well train it now.
