Played first game today after update, couldnt get bat on ball at times, everything seemed to be too quick, this must b the reason, is there no fix in settings? So frustrating.

Anyone else now struggling to bat since the last patch? I am particularly struggling against spin, mainly when I try and defend, I now pretty much leave everything outside off stump as it seems like ill get an edge eventually. Anyone else getting the same? did you change anything to improve it...

I am new to the game and experiencing frustrating run outs with the batsman wandering off at times when a throw comes in. Is there any solution to this? Also is there anywhere you can change the frequency of the autosave, I notice one guy on youtube returning to a saved game but in my case that...

Theres no doubt its a hard game I am getting better but its a slow process, however I like that though, how many times in the past have you picked up a cricket game and got bored quickly because its too easy? One tip I would give to begin with is try tests rather than ODI. In tests you can take...

Im much happier in tests than ODI and basically have a system of blocking spin unless the ball is a wide one and just picking up what you can from the quicks, it requires a lot of patience against the spin but over the course of a day its actually realistic in comparison to actual test cricket...

I havent got the hang of when to sweep yet so might give that a go and yep maybe patience is the problem!

Can anyone help on the run chase in 50 overs, I find this the hardest part of the game, if the run chase is over roughly 220 Im in trouble. My main problem is spinners, Its the same story when the spinners come in, I defend a lot because most of the deliveries are spot on the stumps, run rate...

I guess it depends on your reaction times but I have to play everything front foot unless its a medium pace bowler. Try and find safer runs/singles and the shots you are least likely to get out. Its interesting the point above about survival, I find playing in defensive mode against the quicks...

Can anyone help/advise, I keep getting trapped LBW. I start before the ball is bowled with the legs out of the way of the stumps but the movement of the batsman often seems to take him in front of the stumps, if I move him too far from the stumps and try and play defensive it seems to equal an...

So in spending time in the nets are you better against quick bowlers? my issue isnt one of skill I think, I just dont have the reaction time to hit back, Im now lapsing into defensive mode and playing the straight bat against them because its my best chance of not losing a wicket.

Much as I actually do like this game a lot, I am struggling to find the enjoyment. It just seems to me that batting is so so hard and the odds are completely stacked against you. I just cannot work out in the .whatever of a second where the ball is going from a fast bowler. I am only playing...

Oh god, anyone else on the point of giving in? I like playing tests, but christ its just so so hard. It just seems to me the odds are completely stacked against you when in bat. alright against the smaller nations but the likes of India, Australia? forget it. Im only playing on pro which as I...

It is quite possible in blind panic at a ball coming down the middle that I have hit R3!

Anyone got any tips in a test batting for a lengthy period, Im really struggling on pro level. My biggest problem is getting caught LBW, even when I try playing defensive to anything straight I seem to get problems against the decent bowlers. Most frustrating dismissals are when a) batsman seems...

I cant seem to keep the pull shot down either but by the same token this hasnt cost me many wickets, caught out once and thats it. But definitely safer now playing down the leg side around your feet, pre patch used to be 50:50 you would be caught out.

When I installed 1.02 (ps3) I walked off and came back to a blank screen and ps3 hung, just rebooted and went back into it, game does feel different, anyone else experience this? Presumably its installed ok, can u check the version?

Definitely think the balance needs considering. Just seems a bit of a lottery, playing on the legside often seems to lead to the ball being in the air (even when you do get runs), I presume this is down to being too early on the shot. Looking forward to patch 2 !

Think Ill just wait for patch now. Been playing pretty much since release, won one 1 dayer and 1 20/20, in all other games pretty much failed to post a competitive score (on pro). Playing a test is a complete no - no, think the chances of me batting for a day are slim to say the least. Sad...

I have to be honest Im with you, I can accept some dismissals are my fault but some I am struggling to understand, particularly when I have played a certain shot several times in an innings and then for some reason it goes flying off behind the bowlers head to be caught out. Just seems as...

Spin nightmare Dont get me wrong, one of the things I love about this game -its a challenge, I have got my head around batting against pace and medium pace bowling but spin is just a nightmare for me. Last night 80 odd for no loss in a 1 day game, spinner come on, all out 125. I cant even say...
