I would bat it out, less chance of a loss.

If you set a declaration he could bowl his bats and have all day to chase.

So much hope and excitement going into this season.

Its all gone already.

Bat it out Iron.

Far, far easier FC games this year
Won mine in 2 days by an innings and 500 odd runs!

typical 3 day draw in what looks a very close league

Hmmm.....not sure why I ended up just hanging on in my FC game, eventually only being saved by a 140 6th wicket partnership.  Ratings suggest it shouldn't have been like that!

Top Order:       strong       respectable
Middle Order:    proficient   respectable
Lower Order:    worthless  abysmal
Seam Bowling:   strong     respectable
Spin Bowling:    proficient  respectable
Fielding:           woeful      mediocre

Also the revised pfl hits mean that 4 of my team have slipped from sublime to invigorated fitness just from playing in this game!   

Seems a bit too much of a drop to me.

won by 135 runs.

Not quite sure how I won. But who cares!

My main bowlers are down to invigorated, bit annoying - they have max stamina too.

Will have to throw games this season now due to the PFL change.

The PFL hits/number of games and training system don't really gel together very well!

PFL needs debugging.
My spinner has been energetic since training on Saturday, and he hasn't played yet this week!!!

won all 3 20/20 games without trying!

Another decent pull!

Think I might need to sell this one as I don't have enough nets to train him. Maybe just train him as a straight bat...

My youth pull from a few weeks bat has had 3 pops and now looks like this:

Stamina:     competent     Wicket Keeping:     worthless
Batting:    abysmal    Concentration:    worthless
Bowling:    proficient    Consistency:    competent
Fielding:    abysmal

Happy with his progress so far.

Must be something in the air this season.  I'd made up my mind to stop funding the youth academy this season after worthless pull after worthless pull but going to reconsider now! 

Already sold season's first pick for £250k who had similar stats to guy below who was secong pick......

Then last Sunday I had my best ever youth pull..........

Brett is a RH Batsman and RF Bowler. He is a defensive player with respectable leadership skills and abysmal experience.

Age: 17 Years Old
Battrick Rating: 8,674
Wages: £1,240 p/w
 
Stamina: mediocre Wicket Keeping: abysmal
Batting: mediocre Concentration: worthless
Bowling: respectable Consistency: proficient

Need to make decision on sell or train as I can only devote one net currently until one or two of my long term projects come to the end of their training early next season.  Anything between 2-9 weeks to proficient so might single net bowling till then and sell.
