M Myrmecophaga Club Cricketer Joined Jul 17, 2008 Online Cricket Games Owned Aug 21, 2008 #20 So you reckon 516 is a perfectly reasonable total to be able to chase down in the fourth innings of a Test match? That is the point being made...

I won by the way. Oh and the Extras were: 12 No Balls 5 Wides 9 Byes 3 Leg Byes Total 518 Click to expand... Once you save it, it goes into the saves folder for ICC2008. It's a text document. The point people make is that chasing 500+ in the 4th innings is unheard of in real cricket. Also, as others have said, please don't use text talk.

Niv Club Cricketer Joined May 18, 2008 Location Adelaide Online Cricket Games Owned Aug 24, 2008 #28 Yeah, I've never chased down anything like it. I think my highest was 415 that I won by 4 wickets. Normally I'd play for the draw if I was down 500 runs :P

Thing that saves you from criticism is that you had 2.5 days to chase that total. Which I guess is possible in real life too. no one thought chasing 400+ runs is possible in ODI!!
