Batting guide??

[blazer-glory]

I was wondering if anyone knows of,or can produce, a batting guide. The problem is Im fairly new to cricket and dont really know much about batting. What I would I ideally like is some kind of diagram telling me what shot to play when the ball is pitched at a certain length and area. The only two shots I play are sweep and leg glance. I never know what else to use in different situations.

BTW HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Here is a BBC guide to what lines and lengths to play particular shots at

Ive noticed that the pull shot is mentioned. This shot isn't available in the game is it?

yep it is. hold the W key, and the up and left arrow to play the pull for a right hander.

Thanks for the reply. They call that a Back Foot Steer in the manual. Is that the same as a pull?

I think so. Youll get the hang of the shots eventually.
