Making bowling more enjoyable, seeing weather/pitch effects etc. - invitation to playtest

Aye.....and I don't think there is a fielding option to put a fly slip/short third man in that area either.

i find they either go towards square gully, or fine third man

World Cup Crappies Match 1 Australia(AI) vs Scotland (me). (Veteran)(@Markkkkk 's teams)

Man, what a thriller. Australia ended up needing 4 runs from 6 balls. I should have kept my wickets in hand, and played through the overs, then I might have won this match .lol. Struggled to get wickets from them. Only the first over came early(ish). The rest all fell in the last 3-4 overs. Could really see them picking up the run rate at end to get the win. Not sure what I need to do, to get wickets earlier. lol




Next match-up, is Sri Lanka, vs Afghanistan.

God dont you just hate that ai cut shot over the slips ..., have renamed it: cu*t shot

LOL yeah it's the one shot that really irks me and annoys me more when they play it and miss for another cheap wicket!

this shot actually shows even the AI wish there was a square drive

Forgot to mention, in the Aus vs Scot match, I had quite a few No balls and wides from the AI. Which was nice to see happening.

great to see my teams in use

crazy thing when I did those squads was how often both teams played 2 spinners - must have been a hot summer!

I think thats due to the throw accuracy being put at minimum...

Well, it works like a charm then. Great to see them also making mistakes .lol. Busy uploading a video, of a top edge, Ireland (AI) bowling to Pakistan (me), caught at long stop/fine leg. Was good seeing a dismissal that I haven't seen before.

Here it is......Ireland (AI) bowling a bouncer to Pakistan (Me). Top edge to long stop/fine leg.

That's interesting and handy to know. I wonder if it affects bowling for the user also? I will test this at some point. I would prefer to see throwing accuracy and bowling accuracy treated as separate entities though in any future releases.

There should be a lot of skills treated as separate entities next edition...
