There are two kinds of leave in cricket...

Not a great deal wrong with current switch version if you ask me...

"The test playing nations will be placed into a premier league" "League One [...] Ireland, Afghanistan" And the Irish and Afghans weep at the all-too-soon loss of their Test status... Joking aside I love the sound of this - with some of the awesome work going on in the academy considering a...

Thanks. Definitely think @WealeyH is right (and why wouldn't he be?!) about perks and/or mentalities. Used a slightly toned down version of the OP sliders (so about 75 shot timing and run rate, 25 wicket chance and shot force). Played eng Vs Llewellyn's SA and had them 60/4 off 20 overs...

That on default settings/difficulties?

Having seen some comments about issues with (again, sadly) aspects not remaining when resuming saves and the load times on switch - this for me is a plus of the version on this console. Yes the initial load times are long, but when you can just pause and go into sleep mode rather than shutting...

I've just had that 'bouncer madness' bit from the AI. In a one off match (pro/med/med, all other sliders default) haven't noticed it other modes/tours etc. I got about four overs of full and good length bowling from the AI and for the next 20 overs I'd say 11 deliveries in 12 were 'red' length...

Not a bad match for Mr Stokes there!

I think the umpire 'accuracy' is spot on amongst all these sliders and variables. Get most right but a few wrong, especially close calls as you should expect. First game I played, Lyon had Barstow given lbw, oh so satisfying to wipe the smug look off his mo-capped face when it was shown on...

Just had a stonking ODI between WI (me) and Pakistan. pro/med/med with ai timing and run rate tuned up a little. I batted awfully, tried to go too big before batsmen were set and was bundled out for 100. Need more practice timing the spinners! Thought I had a heavy defeat coming my way but...

Had a brilliant ODI eng Vs aus. Switch version, pro AI and medium bowling with striker timing 60 and run rate 60. First ten the Aussies flogged me, couldn't tie them down at all and they were 86-1. Got into a better rhythm, sorted my fields and slowed the run rate. Woakes picked up a few...

What camera do you use? I've always been a 'batting far' guy on previous BA cricket titles, but having to learn to play 'batting close' in handheld mode as the marker becomes much easier to pick up. Didn't know what I was missing! Took a while to get my bearings for line as the camera isn't...

Aha! Didn't think to scroll further... Thanks

Is there a way to see season stats for the other players/teams? I.e. where your runs total that season ranks Vs the rest of the league?

Didn't notice a massive difference in handheld mode - gameplay certainly felt equally smooth and responsive. Tougher to pick up the ball on the smaller screen as you'd imagine! No motion controls that I could see - certainly none indicated in controls section of settings etc.
