Battrick

[MrB]

How's your game looking for tomorrow?

SZCC play the team top of our league. They hit 280 in their first match then skittled their opponents for just 48 with one bowler ending with 1-7 from 2 overs. Great! http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Could be waiting for our first win.....

The only bonus is that our 17yo YP jumped 1300 in BT rating so hopefully will pop to respectable batting shortly.

My team is against the team that is top (I'm second), they managed 242 and bowled the opponants for 168.

I'm looking forward to my first match and probably losing.

[The General]

Im looking forward to another loss!! http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Matches start around half ten and i wont be home by then. I should be home by 11am though. http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

If I had a player like that I wouldn't be selling him.

I noticed your post about the salary, which has happened to me, it was £9,500 last week and now up to nearly £50,000 and also my Miscellaneous is up to £46,500.

Did you report what happened? And where can I report what has happened?

[MrB]

You pay out double when you hire coaches.

[blues_r_best]

Pay out double what?

[Museshrimper]

Double salery. Mine's also 50k http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif

[MrB]

You pay their wages twice in the first week (ie £1,000 per week x 2) as a kind of signing on fee.

Just noticed this at the bottom of the Backroom Staff section of the rules:

In terms of cost, coaches will collect a salary of £2,500 each per week, whilst the others will only ask for £1,500 each per week.

FAO MrB, that Saiffulah bowler you have is awesome, 13000 BT rating at 19 years old. Did you buy him or was he there at the start?

[MrB]

He was my only decent player. Strong/Competent bowler and hopefully there will be another couple of bowling pops before the end of the season and he can be the player that makes me a fortune and sets my team up.
