Happens so often. As soon as you go into the tail, you should more or less stop batting. There are also collapses in the middle order and at the top of the innings.

Here are my collapses. The latest ones are at the top.

6/6
5/12
4/5
4/9
10/31. Also with a loss of 3/0 in that. And 7/15.
5/30
7/17
4/18
7/16
6/36
6/15
7/26
3/0 and 3/3
5/19
5/13

And the most famous of them all! In my first ever match!
10/14

Wall of Collapses
If you have a collapse worthy of being on the wall of collapses, add it here, and I'll put it up.

That's all season 7. The funny thing is, I didn't lose any of these matches. The game doesn't, from my experience, favour all-rounders over equivalent specialists, plus to fall in a heap at the end, you have to have batted well up to that point.

My problem, aside from the unlikely circumstances, is what degree of batsman it takes to consistently avoid giving away hattricks. My impression is that it is largely concentration related and one of my next experiments will be to get an average batsman with particularly good concentration, to see the effects.
 
That 5/5 was against me. You probably scored to many runs and your bowling attack was way too good for my batters.
 
140/5 to 166/10 is that a collapse?

Rynos first 5 overs 5-1-12-1
Rynos last 5 overs 2.3-1-2-4 [ plus a run out ]

That's something I've dreaded that will happen to me. So you lost by 1 run? :eek:

If you were 289ao and he made 290. Then you lost by 1 run.

Yep, cost me the game that. Although I reckon the bowling was what caused it, so not too fussed
