WK shines the ball using his spit with the gloves on. :facepalm Such small things, i'm watching the video for the first time and these are so obvious - how come nobody in the dev/qa team pick these up earlier?

Also, Rashid looks nothing like himself in the game. I thought they photo scanned the whole squad.Bowler bowling with cap on in the end of innings highlight. Btw, kudos on adding an end of innings highlights.

Adil Rashid is a Finger spinner in the game. :facepalm

An update on above. Based on my experience of bowling in the game, it seems every bowler has a dominating swing skill i.e. either of his outswing or inswing will be considerably better than the other one. The way to find this out is to hold R2+L2 and see which side is the rough side - the ball...

Capability to hit the rank long hops from spinners off the backfoot would be nice. In the current game, the batsmen play a pull shot as if playing a pacer.. with bat swing near their chest.

I, for one, appreciate the change in timing window from right after release to pitching of the ball. Takes pre-meditation out completely, as far as I'm concerned.

An option to restart the game without having to reload the whole thing would be good to have. Or just have considerably lesser load times. Either should do.

Ok, I think I've cracked the career mode bowling as far as pace bowling in FC games goes. Difficulty: Medium/Medium/Veteran My career player has just broken into T20 side of my nation and is busy playing FC games in county circuit when he is not slogging it around the park in T20Is. On topic...

This is the best piece of advice I've seen here wrt timing the ball, very well explained and applies to other kind of bowlers too. Thank you.

Not sure how tough/tricky getting such commentary will be. But it will definitely allow BA to express themselves better. If AI tries 3 outswingers and then 1 inswinger and actually succeeds in getting a wicket, a quick line about how bowler set the batsman up before getting him out would really...

For AI to be better, I reckon commentary has to play a part. Coz today AI might be doing something that we may not notice, but if the commentator announces the situation and what the expected AI response to those situations should be then the sense of the occasion will be lot higher. Wether the...

I would love to hear some inputs. I struggle against the short pitched bowling against pace and spin alike.

Yeah, that's what I generally do. My earlier post was in response to the suggestion of packing off side and bowling in the channel. My regular FC field is something like: 3rd Slip, 6th Slip and Gully Point, Cover and Mid Off Mid On, Square Leg and Deep Square If/when AI starts dragging...

In my experience AI, rather comfortably, glances everything in the corridor to the leg side.. so bowling that line without a square leg and mid-wicket rarely works.

Any sirs here who can help me with the pull shot off spinners? Every time i go on the backfoot to pull a rank long hop, my batsman plays the pull shot as if to pull a bouncer... how do you guys play those short pitched balls from spinners?

No, it doesn't. I meant you 'could' hit top of off if you wanted to while a shorter bowler couldn't on a soft pitch.

That shouldn't be the case. If it is, you might want to report that in the bugs thread. Good length ball should pitch on good length, irrespective of the height of the player. Release timing may effect that but not to the point that it becomes a full toss. Or could that be a function of...

Umm.. wouldn't you bowling fuller 'solve' this 'issue'? The way I see it, extra bounce is an added advantage, coz no matter the pitch you can always hit the top of off. With a short height player, on soft pitches the older ball won't hit the upper half of stumps even when you pitch it half way...
