Couple of useful tech pops is about it. Tried to pull a seamer and got shafted again. Could have been so awesome.

Easy win in T20. They were all out for 74 and chased it in 8.3 overs. It was a bot that I nearly doubled in ratings though.

Easy win for the youths today, inserted the opposition and kept them to about 5 in the RR and then chased it down with eons to spare with 6 wickets left.

Pretty lame training update, experience pop on Hogg and endurance & technique pops on batsmen. Fielding pop to expert for Matheson.

Pretty good training update though one of my 3 capable senior bowlers dropped a level to reasonable, which is annoying. I suppose my all-rounder popping to reliable evens it out a touch. Now have 6 capable batsmen in the senior squad.

My last three weeks for the senior academy have been absolutely dire Two weeks ago I had no pops at all, last week I had this:

03 Jul 2008 Stanley Harrigan Experience dreadful poor
03 Jul 2008 Maurice McLeod Batting ordinary average
03 Jul 2008 Joe Lewis Endurance poor ordinary

And then this week I get this:
10 Jul 2008 Maurice McLeod Endurance poor ordinary
10 Jul 2008 Joe Lewis Technique poor ordinary
10 Jul 2008 Ricky Fidee Power poor ordinary

It's as if I have four players on training and everyone else on rest. Lewis and McLeod aren't great but they've cemented a spot in my XI at the moment with popping twice each in a consecutive week. The rest will all be whipped.

EDIT: I spoke too soon about it beign a dire week, my senior academy finally popped to reasonable :D

Learning rapidly, I see.

What's your team name? :)

Training seems to have stopped a bit here too, although my pops were decent...

10 Jul 2008 Eric Guthrie (23 RFM) Experience reasonable capable
10 Jul 2008 John Hatton (22 finisher) Technique average reasonable
10 Jul 2008 Chandrasiri Duwage (19 bought for quick buck) Batting reasonable capable

Will wait till Duwage pops in tech (should take 3-4 weeks) then sell.

Having a cracker against the top side in my league (who are undefeated) atm.

End of over 27 (6 runs) - Ashburn CC(135-2). 141 runs required from 23 overs. RR 5.00 RRR 6.13
A. Hammersley 49 (54b) , C. Harvey 61 (72b) , N. Blades 4-0-26-0

Could still go either way but didn't even think I'd get close, espically with only one spinner on a dry track on a windy day.

Youth training:

13 Jul 2008 Greg Eddy Endurance reasonable capable
13 Jul 2008 Robert Nedd Endurance ordinary average
13 Jul 2008 Owen Woodley Technique average reasonable
13 Jul 2008 Owen Woodley Batting average reasonable
13 Jul 2008 Leroy Arrowsmith Technique dreadful poor
13 Jul 2008 Clifford Skinner Batting average reasonable
13 Jul 2008 Brian Jordan Technique ordinary average
13 Jul 2008 Reynold King Technique ordinary average
13 Jul 2008 Robert Nedd Batting ordinary average

Nice pops from Woodley, has skilled batting as well so he will probably fit into the starting XI now. Arrowsmith is interesting, skills are pretty low (ordinary bat and endurance, poor tech) but he's a 16yo prodigy with skilled batting so he could turn out well.

YP was pretty crap, but he's my only wrist spinner and can bowl a flipper, so might keep him.
