Try practicing playing off the backfoot more..I got inspired from Root's approach..It really works and I am scoring around 95 in first class matches and 65 in One day...
playing on back FOOT helped me too, I was edging to slips and keeper every other delivery and mu average took a dip from 60s to mid 45 but then i started to play on back foot and tried to play according line and length.
now my average is pushing to 50s in FC and 40s in List A, haven't got a chance to play in T20's where i average in mid 40s.
for me, now game is balanced. Earlier with both triggers i was able to score huge now its challenging, you have to concentrate a lot.

I always love to see a slow patient century...Well done there....

And back foot shots are really beautiful to watch, especially backfoot cover drive, Shikhar Dhawan style...

I rewrote the history books of DBC Career mode today :cheers by scoring 14 ball 50, 28 ball 100 and remained not out on 148 of 45 in FC
this happened during 4th innings chase vs Derbyshire, we required 165 of 24 overs in 4th innings but it took only 10.1 overs to complete chase:D.
this innings is sort of one dimensional most of the runs were scored through Long on, Mid wicket and square leg.

@Chaudhary what's your secret to playing on back foot. Do you go on back foot to both fast bowlers and spin? I'd really like to get good at backfoot shots but too scared to try it in career as it brought my downfall in the past.

Only shot am half decent at playing back foot is the square cut as of now.

i selected Back foot as primary skill of my player as i am already a better player on front foot and then i did some practice in nets. most important is that you get more time on back foot to read the line and length of the ball.

Really enjoying the gameplay with latest patch, allows me to play in directions which I feel coomfortable. Below is my first gameplay hours spent on windows 10 with maxed out settings. No issues at all in terms of performance of the game.

Can't believe that I had only TWO Sixes overall in this innings,

Nice do post Big Wheel of your innings would be interesting to see you approach...:D

so i am 2 games into my 2nd year, i have scored 2017 runs at an average of 57.63 with 7 50s and 7 centuries including 1 double and 1 triple

my scores in 4 innings of the 2nd season have been 97, 8, 125 & 322 -not a bad start to the season. i'm getting attention for the aus shield & long way off english test.

You absolutely ***** the crowd in the front row at Mid On. They'd all be leaving with heavy bruising. Nice job. I've got a save game I have to return to that has me closing in on my first 300...
