Hey. I only just got the game today and am really struggling with yorkers. I have a batting update 3.1 or something the one of this forum. I am alright at bowling and bowled india out for 311 in a test match and do alright with batting until they bowl a yorker and it bowls me.

Can anyone give me suggestions how to play them?
 
**** i can't play them either, i usually use a forward defensive block.
 
Yeah, it's all about precision timing if you're going to block it... and even then sometimes you get it wrong. If your batsman's confidence is high you'll keep it out nearly every time. If it's low, then it's tougher to keep them out.
 
sod the game... i need help in real life... :D

got clean bowled by THE slowest outswinging yorker i have ever faced on the weekend... was not a happy camper... :(

Charge the yorkers. I usually charge + leg glance or charge + front foot shot. It works great!

The above is the perfect way to play them - once I got my timing right, I never miss with either of the above shots, and often score 4's !
