Can you use the patches on the xbox version? I don't know.

@cairns, try bowling different lengths to the tailenders. Try finding one they can't hit from. Also, vary your pace as well. It may keep the scoring down a bit, as well as getting wickets from mis-timed shots.

Yeah! That's a really helpful comment for someone asking for help with C2k5 on the Xbox. Well done!

I very rarely play 1-day games, but would still advise bowling different lengths and varying your pace. What are they like facing bouncers? Often, a short length just outside off stump will get them to try and cut. They may miss this (at least they do on the pc version).Keep mixing it up. You'll find something that works. Good luck.

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em :) If I think of anything else, I'll let you now.

In the meantime, as punk mentioned earlier, try one of the ai patches that are around. I assume its possible with xbox, but don't personally know how.

On a positive note, your batting will improve, as you'll constantly be scoring 30 odd runs more than you should need to :D
