Story Australia's Glory Days - 1st ODI - BAN 236 (47) vs AUS 6/240 (47.3)

[Spinksy]

Going to start countless match series' with Australia. This will include me taking on all of the countries on offer (New Zealand, Sri Lanka, England, Pakistan, West Indies, India, South Africa and Bangladesh.) in 50 over matches (5) and 5 day matches (5). This will give me the opportunity to play 80 matches (40 One Dayers, 40 Tests.)

Thanks. I'm still not entirely sure how to go about it though. I'm not sure if I should do articles like some people or just post scorecards, stats etc. Thoughts?

Looking forward to it.
If you are unsure how to do it, just look through some other stories and find a style of presentation you like.

Sounds good. What are you going to use for this. Cricket 07? AC 09? what?

ICC 2009.

I was kinda thinking the members here decide for each series. EG: When bowling to Bangladesh be aggressive etc, etc. But I don't know how that'll work.

I'm really keen for this. I really am. Personally, hoping you fail against Bangladesh so I can lol massively at you for the rest of your life.

My intention isn't to win believe it or not. I'm trying to play it out realistically like Australia do when they bat. So if the simulation makes Australia lose so be it.

Oh yeah, how do Australia bat? You don't know, you aren't in the players minds, you aren't inside the dressing room, etc.

I'm about to start it up now. Any last comments on the toss, bowling, batting etc?
