for me, on the user batting I would like to see. * Late shots go into the ground. if the bat's late, it's pointing down, it's a weaker shot but it doesn't result in lofting the ball every single time. * Same with playing a 6 late, the result should be a ball that doesn't get up enough, not one...

it's the skiers I'm confused about, surely a late lofted shot doesn't loft enough, not too much. I've just been thinking about that having been caught out a few times in one dayers. I launch it in to the long off spot but it goes so high long on has a day to run under it. surely the worry should...

why when I play late does the ball go up in the air anyway? or a 6 end up being a skier? surely if your late the problem is the bat is further up the backswing thus pointing the ball too much at the ground?

I flinched by accident and got 17ms, then I missed the mouse and got 600ms ruining by average. anyway, I found a new tactic that works for me. A. Block every single ball by a fast bowler. B. Hit every single ball off a spinner for a 6 or lofted 4. turned my average from 8.1 to 38 by the end...

yes, unfortunately this is Cook's problem.

Sliders for me. if you want the game to still get played in 12 months then players need the options to modify it. if people here hadn't figured out how to rip cricket 07 apart no one would have kept modding it 7 years later. we can't do this on a console. Sliders for Timing window (easier or...

given this is what I do in literally every single game of DBC I'm going to lay off them a bit.

Compton should come back, when your team is in such a bad place mentally you need the right character as much, more even, than you need the right skills. He's a ballsy character who believes he belongs out there at the highest level, with so many of england's going into their shell the type...

A+ in the pessimism awards, potential MOTM candidate here.

I'm trying a new thing where I approach every delivery, usually with a premeditated foot position, holding down the block button and then, if I'm going on the offensive trying to pull down on the left trigger for anything wide or short (as these are hit hard and along the ground with both...

It's probably just because the name is of english origin. the costa rican capitol is San Jose, and definitely pronounced San Hose by spanish speakers. if you're british and called Maria everyone will still pronounce the i sound in your name with a spanish/italian ee sound, despite this not...

KP posted a video of a groundsman dragging his feet on the pitch, bit iffy that. instagram.com/p/qoiXNtyy5T/

yeah, he arguably doesn't bowl himself enough, I have a feeling if he wasn't captain he'd be on a fair bit more. maybe he doesn't enjoy it or maybe still lacks the confidence to put himself ahead of one of this front line bowlers. it doesn't particularly matter as with jayawardene and...

when mathews was 23 I thought he was the real deal, by 26 I'd kinda thought I was a bit hasty and, while a quality all-rounder, was never really going to ascend from the bits and pieces role he was filling. turns out I was right the first time, still maybe could say it was disappointing not to...

IMO it's pretty much impossible to identify a good centre back from a bad one, there are a few outstanding ones like kompany when he's on form and thiago silva obviously. football tactics are very weighted against them right now though, the main threats come from out wide where it's impossible...

I had this conversation with someone last week and said Matt Prior about 50 times only for them to still to keep saying "I just don't see an obvious candidate." without ever telling me why Prior couldn't do it. it was barmy on here that I first saw it suggested but really, why not? guy...

it's always something with Cook, before it was his head movement, his footwork was OK and he wasn't getting over the ball and coming onto it late. He's just not built to score high on typical swinging conditions, and the fact that he does so is actually a testament to how mentally strong he can...

Robson gets the dropped sitter and Cook, who needs some luck, gets the safe hands. aint it always the way? his figures are going to be rubbish for this series, aren't they?

I would imagine James would be to play in-between Bale and Ronaldo and Falcao up front of them all. However, I was not aware that Toni Kroos has already signed (did anyone mention this here BBC Sport - Toni Kroos joins Real Madrid from Bayern Munich ) so that complicates things. Someone's going...

I forgot about this, could have been 3 tests as I think it will be interesting. SA in the driving seat but there's something about finishing the day on 30/0 I really like though. it's one of my weird cricket superstions that I think if you make it to roughly 30/0 after the oppositions bowlers...
