    If thats how it works we should drop Morgan from T20's and he'll be a world class test batsman

    Can't be post bonus, it would have no advantage to someone like me.
    COncentrate more on FC.

    A few, usually to prolong their career not enhance it though.

    But I don't think that'd be related to how good they were in ODI's.

    What i'm trying to say is, I don't think Hussey would increase by say, 10 batting points in Tests, and Marsh 5 batting points in Tests if they both retired from ODI's, just because Hussey is a better ODI player. Obviously using arbitrary numbers. :p

    When you think about it though, if someone retired from limited overs cricket and concentratede on being a good Fc player you'd see some increase in ability imo, just not all that much.

    People in real life don't have batting points.

    But the increase in ability in FC cricket wouldn't be relative to their skills in ODI's, is what i'm trying to say. Not saying there wouldn't be an increase at all.

    Thanks, hadn't realised. Makes a lot more sense now.
     
  9. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Why use it as an example then?
     
  10. AVA T Delonge

    Because numbers are easier to use as a comparison and I think you are quite simple. Helping you out. :)

    Can someone use this situation in an example...only person I can think of is Ponting retiring from T20 and becoming shit

    Clarke hasn't been dismissed in Test cricket since retiring from T20's.
     
  13. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Shane Warne.
     
  14. Mousey AJ Son

    But being more active doesn't make people better at one day cricket either. It was suggestion to make it fair and not have people not making their one day sides retiring.

    :laugh:
     
  15. Verigoat S Verigotta

    He still plays T20's now
     
  16. Alec AD Funkotron

    Retiring from Tests and ODs to concentrate on Twenty20s sound like a good idea.
     
  17. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    It's being taken a bit too seriously with suggestions. I think we have found the Problem with Clarke...He isn't posting enough.
     
  18. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    He retired from Tests for T20.
