What is player form?
A player's form indicates how well he will perform in matches and has a significant impact on his performance- the higher the form level, the better the player performs. You may well be better off picking a worse batsman who is in better form, than your star player who is in worse form.
Individual match order have no impact on player form.
Team performance (win/loss) has no impact on player form.
Types of form
Form is split into Batting and Bowling to show how a players form can fluctuate in each discipline.
A players wicket keeping ability is affected by his bowling form.
How to increase form
Every week, about half the players in BT will change their form.
It is possible that a player will not change in form for a number of weeks regardless of whether they are trained or not, or playing or not.
All you can do to try and improve a player's form is to play him in matches or train him.
Players have a far greater chance of improving their form (if their form changes that week) if they play a match or are being trained.
Training improves form
A player who is receiving individual training has a better chance of increasing his form.
All players that are trained by specialists are more likely to see a rise in their form that week, as are the players who play in a match, regardless of whether they actually bowl or bat.
