Battrick - Season 11 Chat

Re: Battrick - Season 11 Chat

I am coming along quite nicely although that may be because I am in league IV in Sri Lank (I think thats the lowest league)

I am qutie happy with one of my bowlers Misthak Amarakoon althought he hasnt got amazng stats he also isnt my trainee since I started at the end of season 10 so it wasnt worth training him.
 
Re: Battrick - Season 11 Chat

Had a pop to quality today which was nice. I'm a little fed up of battrick right now so I'm just coasting along.
 
Re: SimplyCricket's Battrick League - Recruiting

My players just seem to get flogged by teams that aren't anywhere near as good. I don't get it.

Oh and what really annoys me is when, in the 3 day FC matches, people don't have a proper declaration target. That is really frustrating as all my matches end in draws.
 
Re: SimplyCricket's Battrick League - Recruiting

Moved the above to a more appropriate place.

The most logical reason why you're getting flogged is fitness. Ideally you want your team to be at sublime, invigorated at worst.

Also, what are their skills like?

Declaration targets are a pain especially if you're playing against a team that has only just gone bot or one that was created and never managed.
 
Re: SimplyCricket's Battrick League - Recruiting

I've only been playing for a few weeks.

Majority of my players are respectable/competent in their main skills eg. My Batsmen will have respectable/competent Batting and Consistency, with Mediocre fielding.
 
Re: SimplyCricket's Battrick League - Recruiting

You've got a few players in there with fresh/moderate fitness, which is likely to be the problem.

You are also seemingly unlucky in that you have quite a few non bot teams in both leagues, especially considering you're in South Africa. A friend of mine is in the league above in that country and he has only 2 human teams.
 
Re: SimplyCricket's Battrick League - Recruiting

Also, So Potts is too old. I'll take a punt here and say that at 35 he must have nearly worthless stamina?

Fire him and get a 17 med/med/med or similar.

Or someone like:

Carlton Farmer (2395283)
Barry Heckingbottom (1928464) (not great but should perform better than Potts)
Gary Crafford (1819562) (will probably go for about 90,000 though)
 
Re: Battrick - Season 11 Chat

My team I started with wasnt very good only Amarakoon and pulokkody were good, a number of players in my game squad i have bought.

Pete Van Nierk is my bowling trainee and is coming along nicely

And Jerrel Winner is My batting trainee.Check out there statsthere pretty good for there debuts.


Winner is playing in my current FC match.he scored 193* in first innings and we declared >:O


by the way my team name is Sri Lanka69
 
Re: Battrick - Season 11 Chat

Stamina is key in this game. I'm sure I read that a player with worthless stamina will only perform for around 20 balls before losing a fitness level. Plus, the worse the stamina the longer it takes the players to recover.

Each fitness level is like dropping a skill level, so a Strong/Strong with fresh fitness may only really play like a Comp/Comp (not actually how it works but it illustrates my point).

Minimum stamina to buy at is Feeble for 17 year olds to be honest, although you can possibly get away with high woeful.

Superb stamina is the ideal but generally batsman can get away with Respectable, bowlers with Proficient (at least in the lower leagues).
 
Re: Battrick - Season 11 Chat

^he speaks the truth

I'll have all my front line bowlers to superb stamina next season and all my starting batsmen are already at superb stamina

it really helps the bowlers who have to bowl a lot in FC matches
 
Re: Battrick - Season 11 Chat

What I've found with training is train them on primaries until they are 21/22 and then put them on stamina as the older the players get the longer it takes to increase skill, except stamina which stays constant.
 
Re: Battrick - Season 11 Chat

Just signed up, looks pretty complicated :p.

What do I do first lol? All my players stats are either "worthless", "woeful" "feeble", "Abysmal" or "Mediocre"....
 
Re: Battrick - Season 11 Chat

if you copy and paste your sqaud with attributes I can help. I'm sure others will chip in!

First things first, ID your 17 or 18 year olds and see which skills they are good in and then get nets sessions to trian them!

Re: Battrick - BigCricket League?

Thats my list, who should I fire and who should I develop?

Also should I order repairs on my Youth Academy?
 
Re: Battrick - BigCricket League?

Get rid of:

Geoff Garraway
Zesh Saich
Sol Potts
Shaun Phindile
Ranjith Madanayake

Satmina is worthless and they are not worth training.

Leave the youth academy as it is for now. Don't bother repairing it until you have 1.6 million in the bank.
 
Re: Battrick - BigCricket League?

Thanks MC.

Charvet-Jones and Wooton are my main developing batsmen.

Juries, Roscoe and Den Brink are my main bowlers.
