Really?
That's bullshit if so. The kid is obviously coming along alright if he's in these programs so maybe that's a sign that his club has been good for him?
Surely CA wouldn't get involved at that micro level.
Think it would be true. When we played TTG last year, Sleepy said CA made them pick him in A Grade, or threatened to move him. They then picked the kid often, and most times with their strong batting line up, he either hardly got a bat, or came in late in innings. He would have benefited more opening the batting in 2nd Grade and trying to make a load of runs first.
With their leading batsmen from last year not travelling too well currently (off field), he may get more opportunities this year if he stays.
