For Newbies : Season by season approach
by Nikunj Bhalla (Insane Experts) 77 months agoWe have noticed that in the beginning of the Hitwicket life many managers face a large number of defeats (which is quite natural), which leads to many of them dropping out of the game (noticed with a few friends). But, here is a probable seasonal approach with which if a newbie sticks, he would be rather better.
Season 1: Learn from loses
- You’ll be defeated a lot, some may be lucky enough if their star players fire regularly. But then, you know your team is weak.
- Recruit a few good scouts and meanwhile try to upgrade all your training facilities, training is the thing which starts with upgrading them.
- Ideally, by good management, you must be able to upgrade all facilities at the end of your first season (or about 6-8 home matches)
- Go to forum for doubts, search your problems and understand the game and your team.
- You may not have good trainees, so better it is to meanwhile give about 4 fitness and then fielding training, and make them good keepers and fielders, will be good if some of them stay long in your team.(by Varun pathi (SUNRH))
Season 2: Spend a lot, train a lot
- Early on, figure out what is the need of your team, guys with what aspect are younger. Say, you have 3 good 18-19 year old Batsman and bowlers are bit old, then train batting after spending some money in buying 3 more young trainees.
If you have young fast bowlers, do it with them, or with spinners, depends on your team.
- Once you have your trainees, TRAIN THEM.
- Again, you may lose some matches because of training, that’s fine.
Season 3: Save a lot, train a lot
- You have your trainees, go on training them more.
- Recruit good scouts, if needed keep them, if not sell them and earn money.
- Save your incomes, by the end of season your trainees must be quite good after two seasons of training
- Surely you would start winning most matches
Season 4: The Big Deal
- Buy good-young-costly-players of aspect you haven’t trained till now with all the saved money.
- You can either continue your training with same trainees you had earlier in that aspect, or start training these newly bought players. All the aspects must be strong by now.
- Make good calls, and win them all.
