Ha ha! Wait to see you see my sticky wicket!

Yeah I heard about your googlies!


Erm....anyway......with all the human batting in tests, have AI rotated bowlers well and if desperate used part time bowlers etc?

Some might say, rather unkindly that we are in a spot of trouble......ha ha ha!
You will be scampering singles a lot, believe me!

Apologies for asking a question, I’ll avoid it in future

If he is referring to the modified timing windows, I wouldn’t have recognised that as a new mechanism, hence the question.

And for what it’s worth, I have made contributions outside of the beta group that you wouldn’t be aware of.

I was and still am aware of those

U need to git gud.

U need to git gud.

Ha ha and being a gud git helps! I was never good at batting but could score 150 odd.....its a totally different game now.....not impossible not at all but you have to learn the ropes all over again![DOUBLEPOST=1520547963][/DOUBLEPOST]

good point! Will look into it....unfortunately batting is such a challenge that they only need two bowlers at the mo anyway!

Heres the England wheel from their "innings": its a very very sorry sight!

I'm probably the same, my average batting is usually good enough considering I rarely have a problem getting wickets (although I have primarily been playing 50 overs on this game and get five or six in the powerplay). Hopefully the change won't be too drastic but I am looking forward to the challenge.

18 ball duck. Classic Vince. No Stokes? Court date or something?

It's the LBW's that stand out for me....Joe Root just got out LBW as well.....they are real LBW's ....you are beaten by pace and/or sideways movement and you are plumb..........

I personally love how good it feels to beat batsmen now. Whether they play and miss or it strikes their pads. It genuinely feels like you have worked them over.

Thank you Beta Team for the updates and the effort. Lets push for getting the patch live asap.

@Dutch did you give it a go with the ball tracker rather than the pitch marker?

Interested to know how much hand holding the ball maker does in comparison with the pitch marker

Also thanks for keeping us in the loop you guys, it’s great to see all these tweaks

Did you see my post about that ? You mean the circle around the ball?

So the circle gives you info about the line Of the initial ball before pitching...after pitching it can seam in or out.....
