Maybe adding a "Scenario Mode" like in BLIC 2005 or the "Ashes Scenarios" in C07 could be good and a little variety to the game.

This could be time consuming and could probably delay the release of the game!

Not really. It would basically be the same as loading a saved game, but where the details of the game are manually entered rather than arrived at by playing.

yup but when a scenario is needed to be made then all the details regarding that particular series or tourny has to be found out and then each of the match has to be created with accurate figures!
this is a lot more difficult when compared to a randomly generated series!

Will there be official roster updates every so often?

Yes but my point is that it wouldn't hamper the development time. Which is what you thought it would do in the first place.

I'd expect that is where PlanetCricket comes in

Also just a little query on running between the wickets. My problem with past games is that when you call for a run and then cancel the run you have to wait for the batsmen to get back into their crease before running again, just wondering whether it will be possible to have the ability for the batsmen to turn around again before they reach the crease?

For example if the batsman on strike hits the ball to cover and calls for a run because it looks like it's possible to make it only to realise it's not and cancels the run but the ball manages to get passed the fielder instead of having to wait for the batsman to get right back in their ground would it be possible to make them turn around right then and there on the spot?

Sorry if it seems difficult to understand I'm struggling to word what I want to say correctly.

Yes, this is already in there...its like 'cancelling a cancel' so if you cancel a run then change your mind they will turn around again to continue on that aborted run.

Ahhh excellent and also a nice simple way to put it too.

Make the appearence of the squad management section exactly like the FIFA 06 squad management section where the face appears on the top

Yep, finally got a good suggestion. LM you know how in EA you can choose to have sunscreen on etc, for the bats in the game, can we choose to have extra tech. You could then choose how old the bat is, so if you choose 1 year, a little amount of scratches come up on it. Its the small things that matter :

That idea sounds really good. to follow on, can you choose bat weights e.g. if you choose a really heavy one you may be late on a few shots but hit the ball with lots of power. Also like say you are using an old bat, could it break in the match and need a replacement. Keep up the great work! any ideas to when any ingame pics will be available?
