ok thx but are there any suggestions on how to get the top order bowlers out after cheating and getting rid of the tailenders

I just bowl line and length with plenty of variety. I bowled Australia out with England.

The method I use is pitching it half way down the pitch with a fairly low speed. The batsmen often mistime the ball and it makes for easy catches or bowled.

It does become slightly repetitive though so for a good competitive match bowl realistically with plenty of variety and you will feel the satisfaction when you take a wicket.

I've been trying my arse off to get Hayden or Gilchrist out before they reach 150 for the first wicket. I can't get them out bowled, lbw, edged or caught inside the circle. Always ends up being an outfield catch. I'm bowling as the West Indies, but surely one of their bowlers should be able to get them out a bit earlier! I'm trying everything - varying pace, line ect. And it's hard to get my meter up to a special delivery when they keep hitting me for boundaries!

Yeah.....or perhaps "beach cricket" mode :

I used to love playing cricket on the beach when I was a young 'un

Lol! I just bowled out Sarwan and then Lara for a golden duck (how???) with Giles, pitched shorter than normal, but not short short, and it cut into the wicket and nicked the bails off from middle stump.

Bowl medium length and mix it up sometimes put in slower balls and you can bowl the computer
