You are surely kidding Binnu. Cricket'07 sucks when compared to cricket'05. Cricket'05 gameplay is great without any gameplay patch,graphics are much much better. If few patch makers again start working on it(cricket'05),Then it will be a much much better game than cricket'07.
 
Well, you can expect this story to go back to Classic & ever-rocking EA Cricket 2005 again. Absence of replay feature in AC09 & complexity in installing patches & less user friendliness in AC09 have made me to loose interest in AC09.

In EA 05, I always find it very realistic in all aspects except for the ground atmosphere where AC09 gains upper hand.

ok but complete this story with new kits also if you need help in installing patches i can help but stories are always beter made in ashes as thit has some effects like real life like captain staring a bowler staring at a batsmen when hit for 6 or 4 all the the team coming on the field

also as only indian and australian kits need to be changed it is too easy just download the indian kit and australian kit by srk and follow this tutorial

Brilliant news Suren. Old skool all the way :thumbs
 
lol in the thread...here and there...:D
 
Bad news for me:crying i was enjoying the ac09 story looks like have to abandon this forum:noway

I have uninstalled AC09 unfortunately. With Beta patch, the game was great but no-online option with beta patch. With online option, the game was very bad in AI. Hence, lot of uncomfortness in the game as a end user. :noway

I am sure that I will try my best to maintain the good presentation style so that members' won't get any disappointments. :( If my retry of C05 is not getting satisfying results, I will install AC09 again just to satisfy the readers.

India's Chase Begins - End of 10 Overs

bannertitleey7.jpg

India Need 277 Runs from 40 Overs

With this match serving as the qualifying match for the CB series finals, Indian team has been put into massive pressure to chase down the target(277 runs in 40 Overs) @ more than 6RPO. Sachin Tendulkar & Viru came out of the dressing room & there was a huge roar from all the spectators. Whether it's victory or loss, all the fans seemed to have set themselves to see some fireworks from these two.

Attacking Field set up & Binga ready to CHARGE!

update1v.jpg


Ponting took some time to put his men on right position. Brett Lee was given the new ball straight away & without any doubts, Aussies motive seem to be right on the target of pressurizing the batsmen. Attacking field was set up with two slips & strong offside field. Ponting looked extremely busy in moving his men here & there.

Sachin & Sehwag - Can they fire up?

update2h.jpg


Apart from Ponting, Haddin was also found giving constant encouragements to the men nearby. He was also found communicating to Lee through some hand signals. :p Since it was Sachin facing the new ball, no wonder that Aussies are taking time longer than expected to settle down the field. Finally, after all the things, umpire gave a green signal to start the proceedings.

Promising Start Indeed!

update3.jpg


The very first ball of the match was an attempted yorker. Tendulkar, surprisingly charged down the wicket for a classic straight FOUR! Lee was taken aback from Sachin's attacking approach against the attacking field. This particular shot made the spectators to go more wild with excitements. The ball bisected the fielders perfectly & kissed the boundary ropes.

Johnson shared the new ball & after the initial boundary, these two batsmen kept quiet & looked for rotating strikes. Rather, Johnson started off in an impressive manner. However, Lee was targeted in his very second over too. This time, it was Viru. He smashed a HUGE SIX in offside. Ponting got very frustrated & he started shuffling his fielders around.

Heartbreaking SILENCE after the BLOW, Mitchy You BEAUTY!

update4.jpg

Sachin GONE! :( Main hopes shattered!

Johnson who was impressive in his very first over, continued to impress his captain. He struck by getting a early blow & it was the main key of Indian batting line up. Yes, Master Blaster - Sachin Romesh Tendulkar became a bunny of Johnson. It was a normal delivery from the left arm bowler & it angled marginally into the batsmen & Sachin was deceived completely. :(

Replay of Sachin's Dismissal.( ANIMATED, please wait! )

Like Sachin's struggle, even I struggled
to get this Hawkeye in the right spot. :(

Sachin, with his heads down, walked back to the pavilion with lots of frustration. He would have known that he has missed a lolly pop! It was neither a tough task for umpire too. The replay confirmed - IT WAS PLUMB!

Video Version of the Hawkeye Replay


Repeated replay from all the angles confirmed the dismissal. Many curses would have come from the spectators - " Once again, Sachin failing at crucial time? ", but we can't help it. It's better to consider this as one of Sachin's bad days & forget it. :)

Left handed batsman, Gautam Gambhir arrived with huge pressure on his shoulders. Some magic is definitely needed from Viru & Gauti now.:noway

Sachin's Clone follows Sachin too - End of Viru.

update5h.jpg


Viru's laziness brought the end of his own chapter. Once again, it was Johnson. :eek: In one of the deliveries, Viru attempted a lazy shot in offside without ANY foot movement. Ball went directly in air to Hussey & the fieldsman made no mistake in collecting the catch.

Heartbreaking silence prevailed among the spectators. Ponting & his men continue to celebrate this momentum. With India being put under massive pressure, another left hander - Raina arrived at the batting crease.

Hit After Hit - Gauti also DEPARTS!

update6.jpg


Lee, who got smashed in his early overs, finally made a comeback by getting rid of Gautam Gambhir. The left hander did gave a promising start like Sachin & Viru but failed to conver the start he had. Stunning YORKER from Binga & it was exciting to watch stumps almost FLYING. Another interesting observation was, ball reached the boundary ropes after uprooting the stumps. This indeed shows the sheer pace of Binga.:hpraise

Yuvraj Singh joins Raina & the pressure continues to mount further & further.

India - Batting Card.

update7.jpg


Aussies Bowling Card.

update8.jpg


So, after 10 overs, India have got a decent kick off in terms of runs, but the wickets column looks very disappointing. Indians reach the total of 59 runs at the end of 10 overs with the loss of 3 wickets. The top order just collapsed after giving a promising start. All which India need is - ONE HUGE PARTNERSHIP. Can they do it? Can someone play a responsible knock? Can India achieve this target in 40 overs to qualify for finals? Stay Tuned to find more :)




Ind : 59/3( 10 Overs )
Raina : 14* (12 balls)
Yuvraj Singh : 4(6)




India require 218 runs in 30 Overs(@ 7.3 RPO) to QUALIFY for Finals

Wow!!! Great update Suren bhai. India are looking in deep deep trouble at 59/3. Hopefully Raina and Yuvi can do something great as they will need to play an innings of a lifetime to make India qualify for the finals.

Brilliant work on the hawkeye Suren bhai and its top class.!!! :hpraise
 
3 main batsman of Indian team gone. I was expecting a big innings from Sachin,Indian team will still win! Yuvraj the man who will make a century and pull off a great win.

Awesome presentation mate! :) :D
 
That hawk-eye is awesome, what a brilliant update, top notch presentation and it was pretty long too, I can imagine how long that would've taken you but, well worth the effort
I honestly don't reckon India can pull this off, top order got pwned, the middle order really need to settle now, fantastic job though
 
Magnificent update there mate. I haven't been on this site a lot of late, but to come back and read an update straight off like that, it's brilliant!
 
Comm'on Aussie Comm'on!
Sachin's Dismissal ANIMATED is just mind-blowing....

Welcome back to our forums :)

Now main concern ( which I did discuss with few members ) - Will members be happy if I continue in C05? :what
 
I'll be happy to see this go on with Cricket 05. Not only is Cricket 05 a great game, this is a great story so I just want to see it continue regardless.
