Had a good day today, my mate Lampard's finally starting to look a bit more like a player:

Nice, McGrath's gonna be a pearler in a few seasons when those secondaries have caught up a bit, not to mention the primary pops of course

I'm not looking to take him too high to be honest, because the wages will be too expensive, he's only on one bowl already and I may consider dropping his second batting net next season as well. Looking for him to hit quality/quality bowling and remarkable-wonderful/superb batting maximum, any more than that and his wage bill would probably send me into debt as it's 92K for the rest of the team already.
What about you, your guy looks like he has much more potential, how far are you going to train him? I was also looking through the SL Nat team page and I found out that their minimum primary requirement for a NAT player is only masterful, 2 levels off what Wickremasinghe is now, so I sent an email to persetian the SL Nat manager, with age on his side I'm hoping he may make it on 2 bowl and 1 field in a couple of seasons time.

I'm basically looking to stop his batting training at the end of this season/start of next when he hits prof batting, should hopefully have close to comp concentration too as I'm expecting a conc pop next week (and cons pop as well hopefully). I'd love to train him as a true all rounder but I really can't afford the nets after this season.
Will continue his bowling training though, on 2 bowl and a stam next season, a bowl and a stam the season after, and one bowling for the two seasons after that which should see him finish up with wonderful/exceptional bowling.
Next season I'll have Lampard on 3 nets, my keeper bat on two and my RM bowler on 2, which will leave me with 3 nets for a new trainee. At this stage I've got a pretty much locked in training regime for the period up until the end of season 18. Plenty of time between now and then obviously, but if I can stick to my plan I'll be very well off by then.

Wow thats an impressive long term strategy, I tend to just wing it a bit personally, I just train my players until I think they're good enough then buy someone else and then train them.
Not sure about just having a prof/comp batsman though, when your team gets better he'll just be a bowler who bats at 8/9, unless tats what you want out of him of course. Edited by slogger72N/O - 26 December 2008 at 9:37am |

Yeah that's basically all I'll be asking from him. Would be looking for a guys who might be able to make a few handy runs later in the innings. If I can have a guy who hangs around for a bit and averages around 15 or something I'd be relatively happy.
Of course the other option I could take with him would be to give him a single net each of batting and bowling, but that would mean giving him an extra net on top of what I've planned to give him which I'm not sure about doing, but at the same time it could work out very well for the overall balance of the team. The only problem for me would be the fact that his concentration would still be relatively low unless I gave him yet another extra net for his fielding. Not sure I can afford an extra two nets (after next season), but a genuine all-rounder is a very tempting prospect.

Sounds like you've got some tough decisions to make. A bit like me really, just heard back from the SL Nat manager who said that I need to get Wickremasinghe to phenomenal bowling for him to be selected, will cost me well over 100K in wages but I may do it because at that level he could be an awesome bowler for me and fetch an awesome sum on the TM if I ever decided to sell him. Wages will be somewhere between 100K-160K, but I've got 80K interest a week, a ground that nets me 200K on a good week for a OD game and some decent sponsors income so I should be able to cover that especially if he gets in to the SL team and gets a fairly regular NT subsidy. I need to give him 2 bowl and 1 field as well which means Mcgrath now only has 1 bat, 1 bowl, 1 field, 1 stamina but his primaries are quite high now anyway so I'm just looking for his secondaries to catch up.

My keeper-batsman Appleby's really starting to look a good player now, had a concentration pop today, hoping for a batting pop in the next week or two.
Also had a fielding pop on Lampard (posted above) to feeble. A good day really

Depends how many nets you can spare on him, I personally wouldn't train someone who's batting is that low, but if you have no other trainees, then 2 bat and 1 keep would improve the batting much quicker.
As a general piece of advice though, always start with a keeper who's got at least mediocre batting at the start of the season, by now it should be at least repsectable |

Consistency popped to exceptional which is a very nice pop, hopefully his primary will pop soon as well (and his wage hopefully won't go over 60K)

No, it helps your sides overall fielding rating if your keeper has high fielding, it's not a waste but I don't generally bother

Three decent pops today:
Was expecting his batting to pop too as batting and bowling have popped the same week each time until now, so will train his batting til next week.
Overall a very good day for me, now just need to hope I get a good youth pull later today.
