I just came back from action cricket now myself, so I will check this out tomorrow.

Prepare to have your score humiliated...

In a practise match against fast bowling I lasted exactly 4 overs with a score of:

9/10

I hit one 6 and one 3.

ps: my highest practise score is against off spin a brilliant 79 runs 🙂

THey have not missed a rule. My batman Hayden got hit in the head by a bouncer. He collapsed to the ground , hitting the wicket on the way down and was rightly given out. You saw him collapsed on the gournd with the stumps dislodged 😀

My batsmen refuse to play a shot as soon as they bring on the spinners :o( Spoils the whole game.

Seriously Werner,do you not have this spinner problem?

First go I came away 59 for 10 🙁. Lehmann got a 32 and I was looking alright, but then my tail collapsed completely.


I'm going to be at this all night now...

Yes the bat doesnt move at all,the batsman is very willing toduck though. I am playing as Zimbabwe now and the problem seems to have disappeared. Very frustrating,I once had 136/2 and winning easily until the spinners started their onslaught. :o(

I don't have a problem like that, Johan.
I've only played the slog game though and friggin Haldee and Emburey kick my ass...

You have to get the timing pretty exact with the spinners to even have a shot.
I've given up for the night. I'm in a form slump, I can't even break 100 anymore. grrr

Getting it right with the spinners is definitely a hard task. Once you've got the timing right with playing shots, it's very difficult to avoid getting caught...then again, I should probably stop trying to pull and sweep absolutely everything!

Keep plugging away, soon you'll not be giving 5 wickets away to Emburey in his first over!
