Introduction
Battrick is an online cricket management game. Through playing it, I have found it useful to develop some tools to assist me in making decisions, and I’ve decided to share them so others can use them too.
I try to make the tools as user-friendly, intuitive and as easy to use as possible - the end user should be spending more time playing Battrick than working out how my resources work!
These tools will always be free to use. If you consider them worthy of a donation, however small, then it will be gratefully accepted, using the Donation link in the sidebar.
Everything you find here is under a Creative Commons License.
And finally, this site was also referred to as Gazza’s Battrick Resources - don’t worry, you’re at the right place.
Regards,
Gary aka Jargon.
The Resources
- Stadium-Helper
The Stadium-Helper has yet to be moved over into WordPress. In the meantime, you can find it in a temporary location.
- Battrick-Helper
The Battrick-Helper suite of spreadsheets is composed of the FA-Helper, the PR-Helper and the Timetable-Helper. It is designed to help play the Battrick cricket management game. Although they are in a Microsoft Excel format, they should open and run correctly with Open Office (a free open source replacement for Microsoft Office applications).
- Talent-Finder
The Talent-Finder spreadsheet is composed of the Wage Calc and the Training Calc, although both are focussed on finding out who is a potential talented player, and how you can go about improving that talent.
This is actually a significant re-write of the spreadsheets previously known by many as “Scuffer and Tuhob BT Wages and Training Calc”, and for the most part, the front end hasn’t changed that much. The back-end has though, and includes a brand new wage formula that is much more accurate than the previous version. - Face-Generator
The Face-Generator has yet to be moved over into WordPress. In the meantime, you can find it in a temporary location.
- REQUEST FOR DATA: Fielding-Snapshot
Would you like to contribute to helping to discover if the fielding skill really makes a difference? Read on to find out how.

As it’s now officially been made public that I’ve been made in to a developer for Battrick, I can now share my thoughts on developments for my own spreadsheets and tools.
Due to the obvious conflict of interest, unfortunately I will have to stop any further development of the tools that I have created. I may [...] - 2008-02-02: Talent-Finder Released
Over the last few days I’ve been helping to do some work on a new spreadsheet for the Battrick game I play. Someone (zinc) had found a highly accurate formula to work out the un-displayed sub levels of players, based on their wage, and this spreadsheet made use of that formula.

I’m not expecting a flood of traffic now I’ve started with the blog, but it’s interesting to see how people are finding my site, especially when it’s all on one topic - Battrick!
- 2008-01-23: FC Fixtures
This is a reference post for those Battrick managers using my Timetable-Helper, part of the Battrick-Helper spreadsheets.
It seems that the scripts that generate the fixtures list for First Class (FC) games in Battrick, “see” the leagues differently to how they are generated at the start of the season. In short - what we see at [...]
