different teams approach differently to the run chase some will prefer to preserve wicket till the end ,some will go out with blast ,some use a mixture of both and some teams will try to keep up with the runrate.

If the ball is right on the boundary rope, but doesn't have enough momentum to go over the rope, the fielders chasing should pick the ball up, take a few strides back towards the middle then throw back. Just to make sure their throwing arm doesn't go over the boundary rope.

oh yeh, that reminds. the fielder should throw the ball in the direction he is facing!

It wouldn't matter if his arm went over the rope...His body is just not allowed to touch the rope or over the rope when the ball is in his hands.

The AI should do stupid things aswell. Cricket wouldn't be cricket if batsman didn't make mistakes. The lose shot, poorly judged run. Or fielding captain, poor field or plans. This would obviously be more evident for smaller teams.

Sorry but I thought the arm was part of the body :

Sorry but I thought the arm was part of the body :

It is any part of the body which is touching the ground over the rope. If the arm is over the rope, but in the air, it's fine, but if it's touching the ground beyond the rope (or the rope itself) then it's four or six.

I think that the batsmen should always jog a single unless you hold a sprint button. EG when the ball is hit to the boundary and there is only one then jog the single and if you want 2 then u must sprint. The printing could decrease stamina meaning shots aren't hit as hard and also that the next time you sprint you will be a second slower. (or maybe the first 4 or 5 sprints dont have an affect but after that sprinting becomes tiring. This way we dont always have to sprint a slow single.

Just to clarify, is this the AI of the opposition players or the AI which runs the game, many seem to think it is the former, but I think it may be the latter.
