Though my suspicion is that the captain's fielding skill might help this too. I may be wrong though.....

Oh I forgot that experience helps with captaincy as well but I didn't know about fielding, would be surprised if that's correct.

I obviously meant that it helps captaincy performance; I suspect that an outstanding captain with reasonable fielding may be worse captain than an expert captain with exceptional fielding. If the Master was here with us, he would have surely replied "that is an exceptional suspicion that am sure you can work out for yourself" or something similar

To be fair it would be utterly ridiculous for fielding to have any input whether good or bad into captaincy!

I would say 'Good Question' as he would love to say but for this one I have to say No, I have never seen or read anything suggesting that. Captaincy helps fielding, the overall fielding is better if your capt is at a higher level

Hi,

Thanks for the replies guys. A follow up question then .
Like exp does captaincy skill increase depends on what team he is captaining? Means less for youth and more for seniors?

Yes you get more for seniors than youths and more as you go up the divs
But even in div 1 it will take more than 2 seasons to get a pop
And capt is capped at outstanding too

From what I can tell, yes

That would make sense.

Never really trained a WK before, should I just leave this guy on Keep-Bat training for the next few years then push whatever has fallen behind when he hits 20? Any advice appreciated, cheers.

Pretty much what I'd be doing, yes.

Batting technique might be useful for a little bit to get that up to speed. It'd be 80-90% keeper-bat and 10-20% technique if he was mine.

I would train fielding all this season then onto Keeper/batting training.
