Story The Gary Packer Takeover

[Langeveldt]

Fed up with the proliferation of T20 leagues, of the Hundred, and of ODI cricket where bowlers were simply there to lob up the ball as it was smashed out of the park for 400 plays 400, Gary "Nathan" Packer has staged a hostile takeover of the game, luring players from all over the world to join his "International Cricket Association" jamboree.

Warmup games are being staged, with the sandpaper boys back for Australia, and everyone is enjoying the big bucks, "Real Cricket" and "Be the star" catchy slogans encouraging cricketers from around the world to be enthused with the global game, tactfully shown on free to air during the launch of the ICC's "World Cup" in England which has seen its player base decimated.

Format - AI vs AI
AI - Pro
Dry, medium, day one pitch

Pace Bowling Slow - 70
Pace Bowling Fast - 70
Pitch Friction - 40
Pitch Bounce - 40
Shot Force - 60

Slight, but not major alterations to licensed teams in terms of skill and mentality

Ha ha - looks good!

Out of interest, given it's AI v AI, how come you set it at Pro rather than a higher level, and would it make any real difference?

Well I have no idea, hence the testing. I just wanted to start with out the box, nothing changed, and then minor tinkering in previous matches brought me to this.

But I'm satisfied enough not to bother changing it.
