Shame about the waste in keeping, he's a pretty good player. Nice experience and not bad captaincy as well, just good overall.

Personally I'd be pushing that fielding up to capable and then going bowler all out until 19ish and reassess. I know he lacks the direct talent, but gifted power will mean you can probably spend a bit longer on bowling, which will help in the long run.

He also is a bit short on spares (1810 if I counted correctly?) and the skill summary doesn't really tell you too much, but the wage may suggest a lowish reasonable, probably best to go all in.

I should AR is certainly viable, and if you don't like mediums bowlers without some form of active talent, then AR training after capable bowling until 19ish wouldn't hurt, a few batting pops is hardly a bad thing.

As with all my comments, I would recommend waiting for a second opinion :lol:
Thanks! It's pretty much what I thought. Think he probably has a bit of SR in batting, so may go for a bit of AR training after fielding.
Should be a solid #8.
Got a deluxe academy so hopefully he can turn into a decent medium pacer.
In a deluxe regardless of country he's gonna have a good chance of making youth nats with those starting stats, and probably gives you more justification for a couple of AR pops. Congrats again!

Its more so he can at least field when he starts playing in games
Its just the way many of us train players but if you went to reas first then primaries and topping up fielding after every second pop that is also a known way to train

Raqib Omar Bangladesh
16 years 0 weeks old | 22,197 rating | $934 wage | Right hand batsman | Right arm Finger spin | Slower Ball, Skilled (Technique)

dreadful experience | reasonable form | rested fatigue | average captaincy

Endurance poor
Batting poor
Bowling reasonable
Technique poor
Power reasonable
Keeping poor
Fielding poor

Going to train this guy to capable fielding and then work on bowling tech/bowling. With a lavish academy what level do we think he might reach when he leaves the youth squad and turns 21?

Is there any other way I should be training him?

I'm not good at predicting levels, but that sounds like a good training plan; with that gap I suspect it will mainly be bowling tech though.

Personally when you hit 19 and 20 I'd be tempted to pop his fielding to reliable and then accomplished, but if you are only keeping for youths, your plan would likely generate you more money at sale.
