cricket!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The run outs are a joke, you get at least three a match, like the idea of the game but it needs improving in the future series, run outs has been a problem for a while.
Same old same old. AI can bowl you out no matter what you do but you can't get a wicket when you bowl. Just when the AI needs a collapse a collapse happens no matter the levels you put, you can put defensive and defensive rated batsmen will still get run out in a test match. This seems to be a consistant complaint throughout the years. I thing a better application of the difficultly options is in order. What I described was all on easy difficulty so I think easy should be for casual players so they can get enjoyment without having to micro manage, then normal and hard is micromanaging every ball for the hardcore players. I want to like this game but so many times the enjoyment is ruined by the AI getting 4/650 super easily and I end up having to follow on. I understand it's tough for a small developer but in contrast I play sim racing titles by small developers who give constant updates to improve the games they release. I will consider this game once it goes from mixed reviews to at least positive reviews because the standard is still Cricket Coach 2014 which is sad for such a big game like cricket.
The only reason I played this game for several years is I have a laptop not a PC so I have limited ability. I found the game rigged to win, at one stage I had 4 wickets in hand chasing 80 to win with both batsmen in form, and still ended up losing by 50 runs as the game took out the batsmen in three overs.
