New bug!

[barmyarmy]

This one took me by suprise. I thought I'd seen it all:

The keeper is standing up to the stumps to a Dougie Brown Delivery (only on leg side). Strauss plays and misses and the ball goes through to boundary:

Strange enough but then the keeper suddenly appeared in the middle of the pitch, facing the wrong way and ran backward to the stumps:

Give me a shout is anyone else has had this...

I've had this once.

Looks like the keeper's doing some kind of highland jig

Dougie Brown's medium pace isn't he? Was the keeper up to the stumps a bug as well, or can this now be edited?

He's RMF in the game.

It's just the scottish wicket keeper - he doesn't know what he is doing

He's RMF in the game.

What I meant was he wasn't a spinner, so the keeper would be standing back. I thought maybe we could now get the keeper up to the stumps for bowlers such as Butcher or Tresco. MF would be pushing it a bit really! (Unless its to Kabir Ali in the 1-day game ).

So several bugs captured in 1 delivery:
Keeper up to stumps for fast bowler
Keeper on wrong side of stumps
Keeper appears in middle of pitch
Keeper skips backwards to his normal position.

Scottish cricket really has it all

I've even had the one where the Keeper was standing in front of the stumps before the ball was even bowled!

I liked the ceilidhing theory...

 

[sam2002]

may be this is one of those ea's truth "Now the keeper is more active" ahh super active

 

[ZoraxDoom]

How was the keeper standing up to the stumps??

 

[m_vaughan]

It should be "EA SPORTS ITS NOT A BUG ITS A FUTURE!"

Off topic, but I've been to the pub so...

I liked the ceilidhing theory...

An Aberdonian friend of mine used to demonstrate this in my local. He would sing the "highland granny" song - to the tune of Scotland the Brave!

Usually someone bought him a pint just to shut him up, but people used to look forward to his dance-floor antics at the end of the night.
