Battrick

[rizzo]

Just signed up to this great game again. Is anyone else playing?

Currently playing a first class game. Have my opponent 1-14 off 6 overs. Looking good in my teams first game.

Discuss all this battrick here!

PS: if anyone wants to play a exhib match my team name is "Geelong Lightning" in VI.133

 

[rizzo]

I have unearthed a superstar. One of my spinners has taken 3 for 6 off 6 overs.

The opposition are on the ropes at 5 for 56

 

[Burningleviathan]

yeah. I play. Forgot about it for a while but have gone back to it. My team kicked bum in the first game of the year but unfortunately there was some bug problems and they cancelled all the games and we are replaying at the moment. i think my opp signed some new bowlers as well, hopefully we are doing okay. i'll go check.

 

[Burningleviathan]

yep, doing well
BurningLevi: 262-1, runrate=6.24

gallop on 131 no. he scored 220 odd last time around, was his highest ever score till the game got wiped. Hopefully he'll repeat that again.

 

[anti.]

i had an account a couple of years ago, i was pretty good...then i lost interest and couldnt be bothered anymore.

they need a good AFL one, that'd be sick.

On the ball. Head to it! Im in love with that game.

Bowled this mob out for 72. Big effort that from my blokes.

 

[danzan22]

I play, team name is "Crusader" if anyone wants a match.

 

[JasRulz63]

Same here, Danzan might know my team, LionsXI CC

 

[rizzo]

Awesome.... Maybe we can create a league for us to play each other?

 

[Burningleviathan]

606 run victory for my team. i'll probably try and get some friendlies going as i have three away games next week and it'll eat into my cash if i don't get some home games going.

 

[carn tigez]

I'm crusing in my first ever game, OD and im 0-14 off 5 after bowling them out for 101

 

[carn tigez]

Comfortable win in the end, 0-103 in response to 101.

 

[rizzo]

Dominated my one day match.

Bowled them out for 65 from 35 overs. My gun spinner chipped in with a lazy 2/13.

Made the total in 11 overs. My gun 17 year old batter made 42 off 33. Looks like i could have the best team in my league.

 

[Coach_Required]

Been playing a few years now

Team name is "Furies"

 

[Burningleviathan]

Decent win for my team in the one dayer. Scoring 3-332 we then got them all out for 206 after 41 overs

 

[Spikey]

More of a FTP fan. Mainly as I started FTP before BT...

In Div 5 for OD and 6 for FC. Won both matches so far. Got knocked out of the cup though...

[JasRulz63]

Jeez, nice players CR. All-rounder looks good, I need one of 'em.

jesus! how do you afford some of these players?

My best four players were youth pulls as 17yo, trained up till now

 

[Burningleviathan]

how much do you put into your youth academy?

 

[JasRulz63]

Since I'm getting 150k from my OD matches, and about 70k a day from my FC matches, I can afford to put the full 20k into it. If I was a new team, I wouldn't though. Did you get your team before or after they put in the new rules to help new users?

What I did at the start, was buy a 17yo with med stamina, comp bat, med concentration, and trained him with 1 stamina, 2 bat, and 1 field net. My team from then on was built around him.

 

[jonesy86]

I'm into my 2nd season...finished undefeated in both FC and OD Div VI leagues last season, started this season with a draw in FC and a win in OD Div V.

These are my 2 best players I'm training up...
