I have done a Brampton complete with GT20 logs etc but is only based on what I can see on TV so there may be inaccuracies. The main problem is that the tented village buildings are rather different than those available in C19 so there are limitations. I will upload as soon as possible after I...

One thing I noticed after the latest patch is that when an AI batsman plays onto his stumps we suddenly go into slow-mo mode as if it is a catching opportunity. It really destroys the pleasure of seeing the stumps flying out of the ground. Conversely, when a fly ball goes to a fielder...

Having a few more assets in the academy would make a massive difference to the variety of grounds one could build: A British industrial town backdrop Terraced houses Older style wooden stands Larger pavilion varieties 1960s flat roofed buildings 196Os flats (similar to Lord's Hove etc) Grassy...

Re: commentary. I don't find it too grating but one of the things I loved about Cricket 07 was Richie Benaud's commentary and it was very poignant to listen to him commentating 'live' after his death Maybe it's just me but I'd love some retro commentary perhaps taken from old BBC coverage...

Well I suspect I'm one of the few people on here who has actually negotiated sports rights and sponsorship deals so I think I'm more qualified than most to comment on the value of assets. Forums are about opinions. On the question of grounds, they had the women's Ashes grounds last time so why...

I am involved with a first class county - you could probably get ours with not much more than a simple email, a standard legal licensing document and a promise of publicity for the official club sponsors. Did anyone ask? (genuine question) You would be surprised how well known county players...

I'm just suggesting it would be good to have licensed English domestic teams and/or be able to play an 18 team county championship. It has a much bigger audience than the Aussie domestic game. This is a forum and that's my opinion... just a suggestion for the next iteration of the game.

Maybe... but about 90% of the games my friends and I go to are county games. We might only pull in one test or ODI per season... two at most. EA obviously thought it worthwhile.

I don't think you can even have a tournament with all 18 first class counties. What a mistake... we could play the County championship with correct teams and grounds in EA cricket fifteen years ago. It is difficult to understand why English domestic cricket is not licensed in the same way as...

I have yet to get ANY outfield catching opportunities. I have used both custom fields with men on boundary and set my own (based on years of playing the real thing). AI either knick balls to the ground or the go straight for 4 or 6. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Well done both sides. You've just taken part in perhaps the greatest match ever played. No one deserved to lose that one.

There are still basic gameplay problems - 1, Bizarre edges 2, No stumpings 3, Very few outfield catching opportunities for human players 4, Very few first slip catches and too many wicketkeeper catches 5, Unconvincing batting animations for several shots (especially square cuts and legside...

I have uploaded a version of Grace Road so we can play the first two games of the women's Ashes at the correct ground I have also done three historic Leicestershire sides from the 1930s, 1980s and 1993. I have relied on shirt graphics uploaded to the Academy so apologies if anyone is offended...

Many thanks will give it a try.

I think a club membership (season ticket) for Leicestershire still costs less than £200. That's a lot of cricket for not very much. I love the world cup but I would rather give the cash to my county - not the greed machine that is Sky, the ECB and the ICC.

The stupid 100 thing is effectively replacing the 50 over tournament - at the very time the 50 over game has revived in popularity in England with the World Cup. It's insane - I've not met a single fan at my county or player at my club who thinks it's a good idea. The 50 over tournament will be...

I wonder how this decline works with players from the 1930s? Some of mine were born the 1890s so game engine presumably treats them as if they were 140 years old!!??

Just to say thanks for the retro stuff - really appreciated. I have done a 1930s Leicestershire with the Ashes legend George Geary. Some player likenesses are better than others as I am mainly relying on team photos for many players. The kit uses some graphics from 1930s Australia as our...

Is there any way of playing one day games retro style with a red ball? I would like to play some 1980s style Sunday League or B and H Trrophy - a great era with so many international stars playing in England. Thanks guys. Sorry if the answer is obvious...

Others may already have realised but if you want to work around the grey shirt issue start a new kit in Academy and only put club logos on the hat and trousers. That way all thd kit stays white (and not like its been in a hot tumble wash with new black socks...)
