Hi guys It’s always annoyed me that 12th man counts as an appearance. For a stat man like myself, it’s annoying. I belatedly found a way around it though. I just created a player called 12th Man (Could be John Smith or whatever) and I just leave him as my 12th man, thus not ruining my other...

Since the last patch, every five/six games when I’m fielding, the ball occasionally seems to hit an invisible wall. The commentary sometimes recognise it as a dropped catch but I just played a game where the batsmen hit it pretty much straight up, well, at an angle that probably meant it was...

Hi all With footballers belatedly kicking off about image rights on FIFA and YouTubers being threatened with legal action by the BCCI, does anybody think that even the Big Ant approach of customising then (Most pertinently) sharing online, could even be outlawed?

Has anybody else suddenly taken an abundance of wickets caught & bowled? I’ve had almost none ever but suddenly two in my last match (One dropped but it didn’t really give me a chance) and two in the one before. Just seemed a bit odd to suddenly happen but I’m not complaining.

Just played a humdinger of a game. Was an ODI and I was 44-5 but couple of fifty partnerships got me to 188 but left about 13 overs unused. They were 80-2 and 129-4 but I won by 15 runs. Despite dropping top scorer, catching ball and stepping over the boundary and atrocious fielding from...

There’s often a lot of comments re: AI totals and opinions regarding that. I’m not a big mover on sliders because I don’t want to ‘fix’ the result. I’m not in the habit of simming anything either. I get the impression that some people think there should be a default score and query anything...

I’ve just played my first ODI since the patch, well my batting innings anyway. I made 273 all out from 49.5 overs (Hardest Difficulty) as my custom Wales team (Ratings almost exclusively 50-61) against a full strength England. I’ll admit that I was a bit peeved following the changes but...

Many thanks. You’re on fire! I should really know this. It used to be R1 and say so on the screen but I’ll try the stick. I literally have a PS for Big Ant cricket games so the thought of pressing other buttons doesn’t always hit me!

Another question despite being a long time user! When selecting commentary name, is there still no way of clicking to the first name of each letter like in previous games? Or am I missing something? I know that I can change surname, match and then change surname again but it seems an odd...

Hi guys Just got back into playing the game pre-patch after a little break. Really enjoyed some competitive games following the changes. Please can somebody help me though? I’ll admit I’ve had a reply to this before but... I can’t for the life of me see how I can choose the colour of my...

Boundary fielding seems to have improved. Players are putting a bit more effort in. Obviously we press a button to flick it back but they seem more likely to actually do it. Just a minor observation. That and better batting intent from AI as well as you know what are my obs so far. Enjoying the...

I'm going to have a prat about and practice. Just started doing it all the time even pre patch. I’m shuffling to the right but is it that I’m pressing it forward/down too? Anyway, thank you. I’ll just muck about for a few overs in a Five5 and try and sort myself out.

The wall is making my unintentional dance down the track even more common. I never really had this problem before and it’s bloody annoying. I’m just trying to get in position, see the bat straighten and know that there’s no going back. I wish you could quickly cancel dance down the track in the...

Played a few T20s post patch and am gonna struggle big time with the bat. Just bowled first in a Test and AI seems more switched on. Lots of quick singles having just dead batted the ball. Only one run out. Last wicket stand felt a bit predictable like previous games but maybe I just didn’t...

It’s frustrating that such a fundamental change has been made to the game. I spent what? £40 on this game more than a year ago and enjoy playing it. If you bought FIFA and a year later they made it so that your players could only move to the left not the right that’d be annoying. I’m not...

Back to playing after a while and I’d like to see what we’ve got perfected before any additional features: Fielders putting in effort to prevent boundaries/not stepping over the line (There might actually be a button for this. I’ll check!) Fielders throwing with the correct hand...

Okay, thank you. I did make the effort to look at the controls. I tend to shuffle a long way outside off to shovel shots to leg. Can’t remember if it’s the right or left button to shuffle (Seems to be a race against the bowler!) but then if I’m looking behind square/preparing to play the shot as...

Hi Can somebody please tell me why my batsmen constantly dance down the track to spinners? It’s ruining the game for me. I don’t press any buttons yet can see a subtle change in the way the batsmen hold the bat. I’m on PS4. I’ve been here since DBC14 or whatever, posting bug reports at god...

Hi guys I’ve had this game for ages as well as all Big Ant cricket games but can I finally ask? I created a custom team as I always do but can’t for the life of me see how I change the colour of batting gloves. My kit’s red, white and blue but my gloves are sort of gold and red by default...

So I love this game and have got a lot out of it but I’m playing a Test match where I made 236 (I’m on hardest difficulty) having been 75-6 with a custom Test nation against/in Australia. They reached 198 before I took a wicket and I fought back to limit them to 278-5 I think. Both fight backs...
