Test Cricket tweak

India beating Australia?! Sounds like the patch needs more work!! :D
 
Sorry that I did'nt made myself much clear , but Aus(CPU) beat IND(me).

The thing that I mentioned "they lost 1st wicket on 100 runs......." meant for Australia not India.

Australia won by 4 wickets.

And Vetts , If you think that Ind cant beat Aus in real life then make it sure that the other countries cannot beat Australia or India in their whole cricket carear.
Just because India is not playing matches these days dont mean that they are weaker sides.Make a note of it . India are the 2nd best team (whatever the rankings may say) :D ;)
 
We'll see what happens with Australia later this year..but first the kiwis should expect some thrashing when they tour in sept. :sw: :D
 
Which country is comming to Australia this summer? (Australia summer, English winter)
 
Zimbabwe for two tests around about November and India for three tests starting December, then the VB series with Zim, aus, ind.
 
After we are done with the ODI (I dont reckon there is anything more to tweak) and Tests, what other avenues have we possibly got to explore? It is possible to add more change in pace, less or more spin/swing/pace as a game progresses, make it harder to score later in the day or early in the day et al. At this point of time I have not tried this but I am fairly confident it is possible, it will take a while to get it to some shape but surely, it is possible. We can make a start somewhere and am sure many more interesting things can be done to the game play to keep us playing Cricket 2002 till Cricket 2004 is released. The other areas needing changes are CPU bowling and fielding changes. I already have thought of something for fielding but havent been able to alter the bowling changes the CPU does. Surely there should be someway to tweak the CPU bowling changes but for now I dont seem to have much idea about it.
 
I attually got my first chance to test these files yesterday.
i was playing as Pakistan against the West Indies, on a hard pitch. i bowled first and West Indies made 381 all out, in reply i am 236/4.
I found it very hard to get out batsman with avergaes of over 40. They played very few nicks and made few errors, but on the other hand, batsman with averages of 10 pretty much edged every 4th ball.
The batsman also scored at a fairly fast rate. (at some stages 5-7 an over) i found this to be because of the fine leg flick shot, they played it to often and got runs down to fine leg. To solve this i had to put 2 fielders behind square but then it left me with out men in catching positions, so maybe you should tweak this and make it play drives a bit more often, or blocks?

The batting was good, with a few balls deciving me and actually bowling me out twice (cutting off the pitch). the other two outs were one caught behind in the slips and one caught (an error by me).
I will probably chase down the total but it will be intresting to see how the second innings goes.
i will report back at the end of the match

Cheers, Tim for the feedback. I reckon the leg flick issue was sorted in the latest file I guess unless you bowled a bit too much on the stumps or attacked the leg. I have to tell you I am a better bowler than you although wont compare my batting with you. With the ODI bowling, you will need to make sure you bowl a lot of good length stuff and also at times variying the pace. I am sure you will get better with bowling after you had bowled in few matches.
 
is there an updated file?
i dont have it
can you upload it here please?
 
I also tested your files Ravi , and CPU(SA) are 146 all out on green pitch and I am myself 150/8 on the 2nd day(1st session) with Vaughan making 52* and White 49.Till now , it has been an intrest for me to bowl or bat every ball.
Now lets see who wins the 2 match series.

Ravi is correct , tim . If you bowl too much on the leg side , the CPU is sure to playt that leg side shot.

ANd someone please solve my problem that the right hander cannot play the sweep shot (or the replaced new shot ).(HUMAN)

ANd Ravi , please try something that we do not have to run the 2 exe's again and again after every inning :up:

Amber, after you are finished with the first test I will either send you the updated Test cricket files or will upload it here. The patch fixes excessive leg flick shot used by CPU as well as making it easier to play leg flick shot for yorkers. I have this issue fixed in ODI files as well and will upload it later today. I will see if the issue of running two exes can be sorted, Amber.
 
you guys i wasnt bowling on the legs, thats what the problem was, if i bowled it on or just next to off stump it would flick it away on the leg side

Try this one Ragada, this is the latest one and should sort the leg flick issue. Attached are the latest batting and bowling files, ODI batting is made a bit tougher in this release and the leg flick is made easier to play. Again not all yorkers are supposed to be flicked, pick the right ones when batting. My suggestion is do not use this shot for the yorkers on the stumps most of the times. Also uploading updated Test cricket files which fixes the leg flick issue for CPU batting. Let me know what you guys think of this update, if ODI batting is a bit harder then I will come up with a not so tough ones.
