The right timing for strokes

[Ashnal]

Need Help....

Can anybody gives me some tips on how to time shots perfectly?
I am usine the hard mode.

In pratice session I do time strokes very well, but not in the game play. I can never get the front foot cover drive or the straight drive to the boundry. I try to play the stroke (pressing & holding the S key) as soon as the ball is released from the bowler's hand. Is this the correct timing? or the D key just before the ball is released for advance shot.

Many thanks
:confused:

My time is that a front foot shot should be played when the ball is just about to pitch, and a backfoot shot between leaving hand and pitching, and for these the timings are ok, although this is for fast/medi-fast bowlers

You don't hold the wsad keys- you hold the arrow keys (direction) and press wsad when you want to play the shot

Is there some sort of a guide available in the forums? I am getting sick of having to score runs using a few shots and not being able to use the remaining.

Has anyone ever got the square drive timing right in hard mode? It looks so ugly!

It's easy to play all the shots if you have a manual.
