Innings defeat for australia (ha fancy that in real life..)
India 452 all out - aussies 187 and 149 (2.6rpo and 3rpo)
1. The CPU does not score fast as you can see. It just blocks away for a while and then suddenly loses its patience and comes down the track.I think this is realistic enough if run scoring is difficult, sometimes the batsman have to take chances.However I wish they would avoid coming down the track to a spinner and getting stumped again and again!
2. The tail enders are usually too easy to get out. They give far too many edges if you bowl outside offstump.While it should be easier to get them out, maybe we can just decrease the edges a little bit.
3. I found this very interesting- If the batsman is aggressive by nature,then once they get full confidence they start hitting out as shane warne did, whereas damien martyn was at full confidence yet played very very slowly.In the previous match he was nearly 90 but still was playing patiently. The other very interesting thing that I noticed was that the batsman seem to get used to a bowler
For eg.- in the second innings, I was getting more wickets with harbhajan and zaheer.When warne and gillespie came on, they struggled and a lot of edges went through, a few catches were grassed.Then all of a sudden warne started lofting both Zaheer and Harbhajan for fours!! A similar incident happened early on as I mentioned before. Zaheer got two wickets and the aussies were struggling.But after his 7-th or 8th over it was almost like they went after him to hit him out of the attack
When I bring a new bowler on , they play slowly!!
I guess some of these are the result of tutsi's patch- if so - great job, makes things more realistic.
Please try to prevent the batsman from coming down the track for stupid shots and running the ball to third man when theres a slip in position
