Out goes my previous two games , both got erased by one of my world cup game.
Although that is bad news there is plenty of good news on the patch front. Do not know how or is it even true but the patch is absolutely bang on. I would have never expected CPU to bat the way it did in this game and that on a wet pitch.
Asia XI were very solid, defended the good balls in particular the balls pitch on or around good length. Asia XI batters were very positive and did not let go a single opportunity to stamp their authority when a bad ball was bowled. I do not still understand how did they even end up batting like this after the dismal effort the first time around. I had to bring on spin fairly early on as my bowlers had lost their mojo(swing ) midway through.
Yunis Khan batted very well untill he was undone playing a back foot straight drive and the ball kept a tad low off Flintoff. Sehwag was the best on display as well as Rahul. Asia XI defended very well and played variety of shots all over to simply frustrate the World XI (I am bowling as World XI). There were 2-3 edges either not carrying or not heading to a fielder which is pretty good too given the pitch.
Normally spin bowlers bowl very tightly and the CPU do not normally play smartly against the spinners but this time around Warne was cover drove, swept, pulled and was even on drove by Sehwag and Rahul. When Warne switched to around the wicket the batters padded a lot of balls which is just surprising and occassionally attempted sweep or glance.
I just hope it is not just me experiencing this kind of result and wanted to make sure you guys get similar result with this patch. Although I haven't tested the batting as much despite being easy to bat batting long hours without getting out will be a challenge IMO. Although I was able to hit the balls crisply not all the time I was able to score runs enough.
Please download the patch as well as the field setup in the zip file and try it out. I know most people don't prefer to leave feedback it would be nice if you just confirm my opinion about this patch.
