Is that a stuffed puppy by your TV?

I had noticed what BD made this thread about and what you say is exactly what I had figured, so I left it alone. I think this is clear enough if you watch the fielder from when he starts running towards the ball. It seems very much like "oh he should be able to grab that if he dives" until he...

Ha! Missed the 'and'. Time to modify everyone's posts to avoid looking stupid...

Has anyone noticed reverse swing in the game? I've had a few times where I'm bowling in the 70th over but I don't THINK I've noticed it yet.

He said practice matches.

So something like this happened again since the patch, though I did not restart my career. The difference was that this time I didn't appeal as the ball rolled on to the stumps after hitting the back pad. The umpire gave a no-ball but again no free hit. I checked the replay and my player wasn't...

Kane Williamson. I think he's hit 150 against us twice. I always get him in the end but not before he's taken the match away from us.

And if you'd like to skip one step and go straight to the stats of the competition that you're to play next, press :pss:.

As has been mentioned, absolutely not. I did umpiring for a while and that'd be a no-ball. I'll see if I can dig up my laws of cricket thingamajig.

I've noticed the same in bowling. My strength is in-swing, so there are times I'll use out-swing to beat the bat all over long, and use one in-swing delivery, but I'll get +1 on in-swing skill. This isn't always the case though, so I wonder what the triggers are. So the very next Pro40 match...

That sounds frustrating. After getting to a certain point on my inswing skill, and my ability to constantly get almost perfect line and length, I'm starting to see some silly AI batting. My previous best in FC was 10/74 (6/35 for an inning) and in OD I had never even gotten more than 3...

I'd love it the ball is called dead when it hits a fielder's helmet. That shouldn't be out.

In real life that would be declared a dead ball. My strangest dismissal was when I played a shot towards fine leg late and it ricocheted off my side instead and was caught by the keeper.

MattW, I recall reading that you had a horrible online experience with a guy appealing all time and not giving you time to check the field. I've found in offline, that if you press and hold the left trigger before your batsman takes his stance, you'll get to the first person view to check the...

Thanks, what I meant was that by continuing my current career mode instead of restarting, what other fixes do I miss out on aside from the linking issue?

Thanks. I'm one those guys who have a fetish for cool screenshots and great angles for sports games. I'm very glad to see the interactive replay feature come back to cricket games, I was shocked not to see it in the Trickstar games after getting so used to seeing in all sports games, including...

Yeah I'm thinking about doing the same once I get my hands on the patch. I don't think I'd have to put up with any more annoyances than incorrect players... right?

dat trademarked "closing the loop" by barmy. Great, balanced review.

Same here. I have yet to have a runout. I had a stumping the very first match I played but then I learned my lesson.

Bit off-topic, but have you at all considered looking into a PS3 theme?
