I do not think so. In cricket academy it says (AI) right by it. I am pretty sure this points to the batting nature of the player when AI is controling it. Wll the batsman play safe shots all the time, or will he be more willing to be adventurous in his shot selections or maybe sneaky (opportunistic) or unpredictable (radical) etc. hardly relates to stances.

Yeah, but a batsman who is any of those things will probably stand in a way that is closer to that to be prepared to play those kind of shots, and the AI would choose your stance regardless of whether you're manually batting or not.

Not that I'd notice.

I assume as we control bat with one the sticks it includes backlift? So if we want a Laraesque high backlift or low Collingwood style backlift its down to us?

Not every time you hit the ball, we tried that early days, didn't work well.

Ross. Is there an option to get hit wicket? Atleast by mistake?

If hit wicket is included I do expect to be able to "hit the stumps intentionally" i.e. be Mark Waugh!

got to love Ritchie Benaud; even when he should be wrong, he rarely is...

IMO you won't need Gold subscription to update your teams... Silver/free subscription should work just fine for that purpose.

But yeah it would be good if Ross can confirm the same.

Ross has now confirmed this over on the Facebook page,

Don Bradman Cricket 14 You will not need XB Gold to access teams from the Academy

Which is nice for those who don't play online but still want all the teams.

Someone answered your question right after you asked it.

 

[Biggs]

That requires the ability to read and comprehend at the same time...

Am I the only one here who doesn't know what a dilscoop and carrom ball is?

Dilschoop is another bastardised mutant cricket shot (which Dilshan didn't actually invent) -

Carromm ball is basically just a fancy name for a ball that straightens instead of spinning like a traditional off spinner
