Match,Tour & Competition Experiences

Congrats on the opening partnership! That's pretty impressive considering you're playing on Legend difficulty. I haven't had an opening partnership of over a hundred for a long time.
 
1st ODI and I've managed to play through the full 50 overs! :cheers Made a decent total as well. This will be very tough to chase down.

I made a safe and solid start but then cue the collapse...:facepalm

Score of 283 is really a good but but always difficult to score the next innings...Could have been a tight match but seeing the scorecard seems like a disastrous collapse....As the commentator says in the game "That was a collapse of gigantic proportion".....;)

Yeah I even left it 24 hours between innings so that I didn't suffer from DBC overload. I had the TV on in the background so perhaps that distracted me.

BTW I tried batting in the nets on Legend with no assists, I failed miserably :noway

I failed as well when I played the demo but the thing is that you need to put in time working on feet movement which is the main thing as far as I have played the game in legend...It surely takes time but you will get better at this over a period , don't leave that keep that habit of playing legend in nets and you will surely excel in the pro level for sure....BTW I decided that am going to play without HUD from the day Ross said about the bowling physics and batting physics in the game, maybe I was mentally set about that....
 
2nd ODI and New Zealand take the series 2-0.

I set the pitch to 'Soft' & 'Uneven'...never again :facepalm

Batting was extremely difficult and my timing was completely off, i'm convinced the pitch was to blame!

Now it's time for the 'Test Match' which will probably only last a day and a half...:facepalm
 
Started the one off Test match between New Zealand & Zimbabwe. Amatuer difficulty and batting both teams innings :)

I've managed to last the 1st session of day 1 with only the loss of 2 wickets! And this is all down to the recent patch, as others have mentioned the defensive shot is so much easier to play which makes batting a lot easier and of course shots no longer go in the air like they previously did. I'm backing myself to bat out the whole day :)

Also, there were 32 overs bowled in the 1st session which I've not seen before in the game, must have been all those dot balls I played out.

Expecting a double century from you....You can do this...COME ON!!!
 
Who cares about the double century...come on NZ :)

33 overs bowled in this session :eek: and 77 runs scored but I've lost 3 wickets, slow progress but again it's evidence that this patch has worked absolute wonders!

Neesham & Watling currently in the process of re-building the innings.

Now that's the difference between DBC 14 and AC13, you could have scores 200 runs off 1 ball there....;)
 
I have been only playing career mode and decided last night to start a world cup playing with only South Africa. All went well when bowling, even got 3 caught behinds. Then when chasing 106 I ran into a big problem. My career player is a right hander and the South African line up has 5 left handers. Suddenly I could not bat at all. Even pre patch 3 I can defend with left handers, but I am really struggling to score runs as I am so use to right handers. I eventually won with 3 wickets in 24.3 overs. It is going to be a long and tough competition. I played against Pakistan and I must say facing Muhammed Iran wasn't any fun. He took 3/19 in 6 overs, but the bounce have gets got me into huge trouble the whole time.

I would suggest you to start a new career as a left handed batsman as I have learnt to play well by playing the career....

BTW, its Patch 2.5 and not 3 as Patch 3 will contain the co op play and other stuffs...
