*What happened in Male Models and Alternative XI match, who didn't challenge?

Will do NRR later if I need to. Top two through to semis.

why do they get 2 points for a no challenge, seems a little unfair when i get nothing yes i lost but i could have done no challenge and got points

The points have to go somewhere. Male Models will probably get 4 points, as Manju didn't challenge eatly enough.

Lost another close low scoring match. 3rd match in a row against a non bot that my batting line up last failed. The whether hasn't helped in all three matches. But we should be putting up better efforts, especially our top order looking at ratings. Oh well just keep fidding around with tactics, I guess.

Jaffna Jets wheelbarrow
Batting - Top Order: 4,777 4,668
Batting - Middle Order: 3,794 4,033
Batting - Tail: 2,376 2,337
Bowling - Seam: 4,146 (6) 4,513 (6)
Bowling - Spin: 4,379 (4) 4,898 (4)
Fielding/Keeping: 4,946 5,426
Overall: 77,446 81,428

[Storer]

I have registered for this, and am awaiting a team.

[EARLOBE]

Sorry, I haven't been paying much attention to FTP lately. So it might have been my fault, unless he didn't challenge me.

Thats the end of Ariyadasa all rounder training, will just train him as specialist bat from now.

Had quite a few other pops to my back up players. An 18yo bat to average, two 18yo seamers to average, one of those to ordinary tech. An 18yo average bat to average tech as well. A few of those 18yo should make the starting XI, but they aren't that far ahead of my 17s. 7 pops in all.

Had a decent YP, a 17yo ordinary medium pace, but he has no tech or endurance. Will keep him in squad and just train him up.

A couple of other pops on useless players. Every player now has Reasonable+ Primaries. Gun.

Would make more sense to just train Ariyadasa in bowling rather than just batting, so at least the other ability isn't wasted.

Surprised how dire your endurances are mind.

I got four better spinners already and he is potentially my best batsmen. I also have two other all rounders in seniors the same age. So once he makes seniors he wont be getting a bowl at all. So if i trained his bowling it will get wasted anyway. All the guys with good endurance are in seniors.

[NZTailender]

Won my T20 by 3 wickets today. We seem to have a lot of close finishes...

[andruid]

Quite a tedious match for T20 this

You should be using the transfer market to balance your side not training, use training to get the most out of what you have.

I'm getting another legendary FTP shaft, losing all confidence in the 20 over match engine, it keeps producing utter ball socks. The ridiculously low scores with few wickets falling, the way targets are chased etc.
