by hodge Mon 11 Jul 2011, 7:59 pm

they were chasing 250 so tried getting off to a quick start looked like so just kept bowling on the stumps and kept hitting or them edging hahaha

by Guest Mon 11 Jul 2011, 8:03 pm

oh why u only on easy mode?

by hodge Mon 11 Jul 2011, 8:09 pm

i usually do easy mode when i'm with a county where im using them for the first time so dont know all their players.

Go on normal mode with Somerset all the time

by Guest Mon 11 Jul 2011, 8:11 pm

by Liam_Main Wed 13 Jul 2011, 3:58 pm

It isn't? Oh laughing

by Guest Wed 13 Jul 2011, 4:02 pm

by compelling and rich Wed 13 Jul 2011, 9:16 pm

played on this for a while since the first one, think im still on the 2005 version though now.

my tactic was always two top class spinners on a turning pitch and nothing for the seamers. always trouble them with the spinners. sometimes have a all rounder opening the bowling aswell, depending on how good the oppostion batting were i would have either two seamers and two spinners as my attack, or 3 seamers (one a all rounder) and two spinners

by Guest Wed 13 Jul 2011, 9:23 pm

i do play at least 1 all rounder sometimes 2

by compelling and rich Wed 13 Jul 2011, 9:26 pm

i remeber hamilton the guy from scotland used to be awesome all rounder think it was the one before 2005 ashes version. had him bowling with flintoff and two spinners once. had a very long batting line up

by Guest Thu 14 Jul 2011, 10:17 am

I started as Leicestershire, scored 400+ twice in the first innings, just my attack letting me down big time leading to two draws. Not got a budget either so couldn't bring anyone in.

by **Fists of Fury** Thu 14 Jul 2011, 10:51 am

Normal or easy difficulty, mate?

by Guest Thu 14 Jul 2011, 10:59 am

Normal mate...

Says a lot when a university side sends your attack all over the gaff! To top it off, lost both openers to injury..

by **Fists of Fury** Thu 14 Jul 2011, 11:44 am

Ha yeah taking wickets is tough on normal.

by Guest Thu 14 Jul 2011, 9:10 pm
