What's the time ratio so when playing a test does some day of a test go for 6 hours or is it 1:4 or 1:1:D

I think I know what you're trying to ask. Going by previous games* I think it took me personally about an hour to get through 25 overs so i'd say roughly 3 or 3 and an 1/2 hours to complete a full 90 overs. But of course I've never played this game so i'm just guessing.

*referring to IC10

From memory (because QA had to test it) to play through an entire 5 days on IC10 took about 15 hours. Or 2 full working days. I was not popular with some of the QA guys.

I can't see how, without skipping, any other cricket game could be much different. Each ball takes a finite amount of time. So if you want to play the whole test in real time, then expect it to take a while.

Yeah so about 3 hours per day. And for the record Chief I never managed to get a Test match in IC10 to last the full 5 days :noway but we wont go down that road again.

It was a challenge, and generally you had to REALLY want the draw to get there... :-)

But thats where the simulation comes in ie. if you're playing as the whole team, you could simulate to the end of the innings/next wicket/etc right? Similar to how it works in the career mode.
 
Problem is that in previous games, simulation reflected realistic cricket in a way that the game itself didn't - not taking into account the pacing that your actual gameplay had.

I can't see there ever being a cricket game that people can enjoy playing at 2 runs an over.

Completely correct. How anyone could consider going at over a run an over is beyond me. Maybe someday there will be a cricket game that supports this kind of uncouth behaviour, but for now I'm looking forward to perfecting my block for some proper cricket.
