Not its not fair you were getting more than you should

[GM-crowfan65]

You can but lucky for me its my decision
It is the right thing to do and made easier by the fact it isn't very much

Be nice Freddy, he could retrospectively make the changes and fine everyone who was getting paid more for the entire period they were getting paid more if he really wanted to

Hi

Can I just ask an old question, are you still looking and monitoring the youth pull systems?

We went through this a few seasons ago and it was pointed out that the lesser nations do not get the same chances as the major ones so the balance was supposed to be rectified. In the last 3 weeks in total there have only been 7 players with a rating over 25k pulled for Zimbabwe. I am sure that if I sit and go through each nation I will find this trend for all the nations with fewer players.

The future changes to the game will make Youth systems tougher hence affecting the Senior International levels in a few years.

Cheers

Ys I look at it every few weeks
We were never going to make it equal but more equal than it was
Aust number is lower then the 1 in 6 it was getting of players over 1k, it varies between 10-11%
The other nations now in a group between 4-6% now where before we had some nations under 3%
We will have to see whether your predication of the changes making it harder

FTR Zim have had 49 plyrs over 27k this season
Most teams are between 40 and 58
Canada have actually had the second most
What we find is some ebbs ad flows in those minor nations as to who is getting good numbers

I am working on something that I hope to have up and running soon to help a little more

Cheers for your answer Crow.

Can I enquire how top wicket taker is calculated for leagues?
For example South Africa youth 20/20 4:2 two bowlers are in top with 23 , but the second player has bowled less balls , better average and better strike rate , but has been placed second .

Actually it's a 3 way.
Prince was #1 when I first looked, and then Powe when I looked a 2nd time. I think it's random.

[drag0on]

I think its just sorted by no of wickets. There is no tie breaker so its random order for same number of wickets

[GM-crowfan65]

I think it is random but when they give trophies out it is sorted then

[drag0on]

Is it possible to show a sorted version before as well

[GM-crowfan65]

yeah we will look after EOS
