From The Pavilion

Pretty much the story of my season is recruit a 16 yo player and fire him because he's not good enough. It's no different this week.

I've put him straight in for his debut today although only as a batsman. He may even be my first choice youth wicketkeeper next season which I guess is a bit sad really.

Wow, he's so good he doesn't even need any training! I'd put him on rest until well into his 30s to keep him fresh for all the games he's going to play.

Too late to make him into an allrounder? So I should make the most of his talent and make him a batsman? Shame to waste his bowling though.

I'm happy with that. I don't think I've ever recruited so many 16-year-olds in a season before. Admittedly, most of them were rubbish.

My last two weeks have been pitiful. However in better news I don't think I've missed a pull this season, so huzzah to the USA!

A bit late in the season but I'll take him. About 5k spares and he'd be my best youth captain for quite a few seasons. I think I'll be able to get him into my batting line-up next season but I'm not entirely sure. If I can get a win this week then he should even get games this season.

Even late in the season, had this chap been 16 I would have been so happy. Will still keep as I'm lacking in the keeper department.

Funnily enough, I picked Keeper when I gen'd, and it actually worked. Have they improved it while I've been gone?

I usually go for general so I'm not sure. That said, I can't remember hearing anything about them improving it so I reckon you just got lucky.

Yet another 16-year-old recruit!
