TAOC - Commentary Lines

Shot phrases:
Thats off the meat of the bat
depending on power & position
he's stroked that through cover
thats been slapped into the covers
Shots
Texbook <shot>
Straight out of the coaching manual
Straight Drive
Straight back past the bowler
showed the full face of the bat on that ocassion
If LM could post the list of shots on here, then lines could be written for each shot

how about this 'Oh and he's Hit the ball!' and 'He Struck That Shot With Great Aplomb'
prounounced : A-Plom-B

OK, Ive thought of a few changes.
In the bowled section..."Bowled" and "Bowled him" should be said most often...
IMO we can make phrases said often by making duplicate files of them so when a random file is chosen they are said most often.
EDIT: Have I missed out any sections here:
Out ? Bowled
LBW - OUT
Not out ? pitched outside leg
Not out ? general (normal appeal)
Not out ? hit outside the line of off stump.
Not out ? inside edge
Not out ? too high
Not out ? missing leg
Edged behind - Caught behind ? dropped
Caught in slips
Edged but not to hand
Edged, but just short
Caught by silly fielder ? (help needed)
Stop by silly fielder
High or Skied
OUT ? general (caught in infield OR outfield)
Caught in outfield
Dropped
Doesn?t go to anyone
Foot on boundary rope:
General Fielding
Good infield stop
Sliding stop just inside the boundary
Turn and Throw
Chased down
Fantastic jumping in the air catch
Caught off the hook
Four runs
Six - General
Six into crowd
Six out of ground
Milestones
Mindless Chat ? more needed
Beats the infield
One run ? only quick single
One run ? general or quick single
Two runs
Three runs
Four runs ? run four
Send him back whilst running
Run out: OUT; Not out
Run out: third umpire; out; not out
After run out:
Direct hit; out; not out; third umpire; out; not out
Shot phrases ? more needed (Said before one run general, two runs, three runs, or running four sometimes, said before four runs (boundary) all the time.)

That is a good idea, with like highlights of the session's play being voiced-over. I have to say it will be quite hard to do, fluently.
Commentary lines for LBW,
The finger has gone up and he's given it out LBW
That's out surely!
That's plum out!
No, he disregards that one, and he's got it spot on.

well i dont know if im in the team yet LM hasnt said but if i have time ill do some more lines
one thing i wanna point out is that commentary that should be said in late parts of the game shouldnt be said in the beginning.
for example in blic it says: "hes bowled really good today, he definately deserves a wicket"
something like that but its actually like the first or second the guy bowled.

I would do that with duff if he wants. I think a discussion of what happened in the session and then the wickets and other highlights would be good, although it would obviously be skipable too.manee said:
