I agree with you but I dont think its a big factor in the c2002 game. The pitch really affect the bounce in the game where less bounce reduce ur runrate.Originally posted by killa_stiky2002@May 3 2003, 12:08 PM
Ground does have something to do with it
Yeah.If it's something like a dusty pitch then remember to bat.If it's wet,then no second thoughts about bowling.Maybe you should just play exhibition matches on that ground time and time and see if you improve. :huh: I wouldn't expect it to be a mental thing either.Maybe just practice practice practice!!!Originally posted by sonic@May 4 2003, 06:24 PM
Rangeela is very right, the pitch is the biggest factor. Fast pitches are much easier to get your shots up and over the top and hammer those short balls for six...but on a pitch which is damp or wet, a short ball can be very misgiving as the ball will always pitch very low. I have many times been caught out by fast bowlers on damp or wet pitches who play a short ball which i attempt to swing at, only to find either the ball rattle my pads for LBW or be caught out.
