Yes

Captaincy is, unsurprisingly, of primary importance to the captain of your team and indicates the captain's ability to lead the players in the field and to make tactical decisions such as field placements during a match.
The captain leads your team in the field and is primarily responsible for setting the correct fields and advising the bowlers with regards to bowling tactics.
Does this mean that fielding chances have a greater probability of going to the better fielders in the team or is it some kind of fielding multiplier which makes run scoring a little harder due to fields being better set? If it is none of these, could you please enlighten us on how the ability of the captain (captaincy and experience) affects fielding.

The second quote above also indicates that captaincy helps the bowlers with tactics - does this mean they are more likely to bowl to the A, N or D set orders or something else? What about batting orders?


Dave
Fielding multiplier, which makes scoring runs a bit harder
No effect on batting
Bowling multipli, which makes the likelihood of a wicket falling a bit higher

Is there any sort of guide line one can follow?

For example.. This guy.

http://www.fromthepavilion.org/player.h ... Id=1645636
If I offer 2 million, would he get it? 1.5?

There are currently no capable Bat 17 yr olds on the TM, there is one Reas/Reas bloke, but his wage is almost half of this guys and his secondaries are crud.

Back in the day when the free market reigned. I Sold this guy http://www.fromthepavilion.org/playertr ... rId=279757 for 1.5 million and his rating was about 2/3 of the the current guy so really, 2 million should be more than reasonable.
By spending some time researching the market and seeing how much similar players are sold for.
