Yeah he is a monster.. gifted tech and he would be massive. Given he is only a med, you could go straight bat. However, I certainly would not go straight bowler. That said I would train him as an a/r. What I would do is alternate fielding and bowl tech. Once tech and bowling are higher than batting with tech higher than bowling I would switch to a/r and fielding. The one negative for doing this is his endurance; however, that does train quickly so is fixable but I wouldn't do that until he is quite a lot older.

Good luck with him,

Good player - please keep on bowl tech with the odd fielding net. Ideally I would want him expert expert with accomplished fielding early next season.

He is much better than that. 2 useful talents and good all round. I'll take him if you don't want him!

I'm happy to keep him. He'll get every youth game possible so at least he won't be low in experience.

I would go for the BH as a straight bat - Having an FM a/r is useful but I think the tech is too low, so for me the med as the a/r.

Gonna make this one a wicket-keeper. Three decent youth pulls out of the season I promised, not the worst ratio ever in any of my seasons.

Yeah - bat tech for me until tech reasonable then you can switch to keep / bat.

Should be a good player.
