Thanks to some inspired bowling changes by Ponting(i.e. myself using Shailesh's game tweak)

I was going to ask ==> How come the CPU did not bowl out Mc Grath? I would have certainly tried, and even tried to give him a 11th over if it was not for you.

Great game and a good effort from NZ.

Murali, that was because I change the bowling for CPU otherwise I may have been able smash the required runs by 40th over.

Ravi, I understand. You certainly have the miind and will to do this like a ritual. I would never be able to quit the game so many times to use Save Tweak just to keep the game interesting. In any case, I do not bat that well. I lose wickets very regularly. So, I do not need to change the opposition's bowling.

 

[crick4life]

Just that I want the games like real life. The CPU bowling changes are **** poor and the opening bowler invariably bowls 8-10 overs first up which is really very poor AI.

It is not so much of a problem quitting the game using the savtweak swap team change the bowler and reload the game again. Lest we dont have to quit Cricket 2004 to do that, if it were that I probably would have accepted the CPU changes.

Hear to a very happy sounding Ricky Ponting speaking to ABC after the win. The size of the file's only 600 kb so feel free to download and listen even the ones on normal connection

hello. this ponting audio interview is fantastic. which match was he actually talking about?

 

[brad352]

Great interview Ravi, you're certainly putting a lot of effort into this

 

[crick4life]

Cheers, guys.

Freddi, this one was from the series against the SL. I have stripped off all references in the interview which don't fit my game here though. Good for me there was mention of Warnie and Symonds which fit very well in the context of my game.

Its a cold murky weekend and to make an audio interview from different clips isn't much of an issue. I have had to strip off lots of comments refering to SL and other players but it wasn't too time consuming. As far as the effort goes not sure for how long.

 

[freddieflintoff]

and from where do you get these interviews, abc australia website?

 

[freddieflintoff]

inspired by ravi, i have done a similar audio interview of andrew hall. hall was the pick of the south african bowlers in the 1st innings with figures of 3/27.

Freddi, you can search in google for player's audio interviews and I recommend Sound forge to cut past or edit audio clips. It can be fun when you absolutely pick the right clips and join with others to produce the result that will be apt for the game.
