    Bowling Guide!

    I did the tutorial. It said that move LAS to pick delivery and pick length with A/Y/B. It then said, when I pressed select and advanced guide, that moving the LAS left or right + length = angle of approach. Lemme read the guide here again. Okay yea this guide has ignored the part about...

    Bowling Guide!

    With spinners, pushing the left analogue stick decides direction, and then left analogue stick pushed left/right + delivery length gives your approach on the crease. So should I pick my delivery first, THEN the approach on crease? Or do I pick approach on crease first, and then the delivery...

    India in England Jun-Sept 2014

    In India (Avg/Econ) Ashwin (24.12/2.83) Jadeja (19.85/2.03) Outside India (Avg/Econ) Ashwin (74.77/3.20) Jadeja (54.55/2.63) Straightforward statistics really.

    India in England Jun-Sept 2014

    Jadeja is a better spinner overseas. Does the containing job better than Ashwin, adds more value in the field (got enough decent slip fielders already). Binny at 8 is quite a luxury; he's definitely good enough to bat as high as 6. Good enough to be above Jadeja IMO, but putting a man with two...

    Bowling Guide!

    I'm pretty proud of the field I've set tbh. I try to bowl mostly good length with the odd full ball, as a spinner, so I keep a sweeper at deep extra cover, deep forward midwicket, and a square fine leg. So any good shot off a poor delivery - either in the pads or wide outside off - has...

    Batting in career mode is a serious issue

    I've hit the nets to face some fast bowling on pro; and with my lowly skilled bowling allrounder I've come up with a solid gameplan. Just pre-meditate going on the front foot -so keep the left analogue trigger up before the ball is bowled- have the bumpers pressed down for what you want to do...

    Bowling Guide!

    I'm finding bowling fine ATM on my career game at Pro level. Offspinning bowling allrounder, sure I've only bowled about 20 overs in my first FC game, but I have 2 wickets and a tidy economy to show for it, by constantly varying angles, length and deliveries. Got Kane Williamson bowled on the...

    Tutorial: Playing career mode in other nations

    Daymn. I'll guess I'll just be satisfied being a seasoned county pro with occasional appearances for India but never getting to the WC then :(

    Tutorial: Playing career mode in other nations

    Ok legit question - is there any plan to let us create domestic competitions to use in career mode in the future? And to add international teams? Feels odd replacing the English County teams with India Ranji teams and keeping the same structure; especially considering it should be feasible to...

    Don Bradman Cricket 14 - Issues and Anomalies after patch 2 [PS3/360]

    I've had two Pro40 career games on Rookie mode playing as a bowling allrounder at 8 at Lancashire. In both we bowled first, restricted the other team to around 220, only to crawl to scores like 120/4 at the end of our 40 overs when chasing. IDK if that's going to persist in career modes of...

    The state of off-spin bowling/suspect actions/doosra bowlers worldwide

    Having tried to bowl both, I'd say the bigger factor is it's harder to get revolutions on a carrom ball compared to a doosra. The carromball is reasonably hard to pick - both the offbreak and carrom ball can have the palm facing the batsmen, with fingers around the ball in a similar style. The...

    India in England Jun-Sept 2014

    So...what's Binny's role in the team again? Don't get me wrong, I love the guy (#RR4Life), but how is getting a spot in the XI if he's going to bat at 8 and bowl 5 overs?
