Well got a lot better in the bowling. just scored 148/2 with Australia, Hughes 84(35 Balls) , and Katich 56 not out (27 Balls) in 10 Overs :O

Took out 2 wickets in the first over with lee, one a C & B , and one a LBW :). Had England down to 60 odd for 7, but the last 3 wickets dragged on till 95.

TIPS : With the Pace bowlers, try a few last second variations in the short balls, followed in the next ball with full length swingers/cutters. With spinners with the doosra option available, fool them with Off spins for a ball or two and then suddenly a doosra in the same spot. I got 1 bowled and 2 catches like that :)
 
phew...i must i like the game but i dont last more than 15 overs!!:)

btw does the AI bring on spinners?i haven't faced any!

^^ Nopes. The demo was designed to last 3 overs only, and with only 2 pace bowlers I suppose. SO only pace batting experience till now.

@Phoenix: Try the normal mode now. Lasting 20 overs in the normal mode has become easy for me. But I bat a little cautiously and score somewhere around 160 only in the normal mode. :)
 
^Lol. I was talking abt Normal mode only. I havent played on Easy or Hard even once. In Normal i score around 170-190 easily, have scored 235 once :P
 
played a full 20 over match...was a cracking one,ENG all out for 150,i had to score 30 runs of the last 2 overs!!!did it..it was fun!eagerly waiting for the DVD!!
 
A few got em yesterday itself :P

Just had a nerve wrecking match. Australia 123 All-Out in 16 Overs. I was chasing, but got down to 75 for 8 in 7 Overs. Then Anderson and Monty put a good innings taking me to 114. Monty got out. Had a good 6 overs left, but only one wicket. Flintoff looked unsteady, gave two full maiden overs without scoring a single run. Then hit 2 fours, got dropped once :O and then ran the last 2 :D

W00t.
 
Playing the demo now, improved gameplay indeed, but why do they keep repeating the same lines for commentary since 1999??? :@
 
Wow excellent game ...though i like cric07 also...
