the way i initally attack in an innings is to put majority of fielders on offside and bowl to the field accordingly.i often find with a bit of patience and keeping a good line and length(full on hard pitch,good on soft)the batsmen will occasionally get a bit frustrated and attempt a drive that...

yh thats not right,should definitely be given out.i had an incident where i bowled a short bowl which hut the batsmen in the rib area, bounced down and just took the bail off and it was given out so i guess in your case the cpu got confused as to whether it was lbw or bowled

yes on veteran difficulty.medium batting,fielding and bowling.

tbh my friend im seeing a good amount of run outs although not many stumpings.

im noticing(in my game anyway,ashes eng v aus,veteran)cathing opportunities in certain positions in the outfield.obviously slips are taking a lot of catches but also finding square leg/backward square leg are giving me catching chances especially off pace bowling.when attacking i usually set the...

yh im not seeing lots of outfield catches but have had a few dropped catches around cover an took a caught and bowled last night.i like to have three or more slips at all times so thats usually where the catches end up.

to be honest i was surprised i got it so cheap.lovin the game

im in england and picked it up brand new from a company via ebay.i will check the company i got it from just to update it was from thegamecollectionoutlet via ebay

surprised the game is still that expensive,i picked up my brand new copy of ashes 17 for £11.95

thanks guys i finaly figured out how to bowl the effort ball,saw it appear for first time after perfect timing and woakes bowled a ball at 97.5 mph

my issue is that an effort ball is never indicated at all,i hold the right trigger at the beginning of the delivery until the end but it never indicates ive bowled an effort ball.am i doing it wrong?maybe it is the timing issue as has been mentioned

bang on mate,after reducing them to 56-6 i think they went on and made 180 odd due to me sticking to what id done before and failing to freshen up the attack

im the same the effort ball is no quicker or better imo than a standard delivery

does anyone where the update info came from?where can we found out what has changed?

yes just the one test hes banned for but surely its still cheating if hes manipulated the ball condition?aussies did the same and got lengthy bans,what exactly is the difference i wonder?

hi bro(jerm),as someone who uses geoffrey boycotts stick of rhubarb to bat with can you throw some tips my way pls much appreciated

just out of interest has anyone removed the disgraced trio from the aussie squads?I removed smith,warner and bancroft straight away as didnt feel right to have them there.also chandimal has been banned hasnt he but isnt as clear cut as with the aussies

haha i also have the aussies reeling,start of second test they are 56-6 and i won the ist test by 10 wickets on veteran difficulty.patience really is key though although there will be times when poor shot selection from ai helps you out but that just like real cricket isnt it

totally get you,players usually referred to as 'they' and in ashes mode renshaw was mistakenly called anderson who was the bowler.im sure it can be sorted and tbh it doesnt really put too much of a downer on things

I understand the frustration people feel regarding certain aspects of the game but its exactly that,a game.all games have bugs and errors and as a total package big ant have delivered a fantastic cricket simulation in my opinion,the game plays fantastic especially in test matches and ive often...
