    Controls - Are Finesse Shots needed? My solution

    Hi, I was wondering about the 'Finesse Shots' (LB and RB) and whether these are needed. Does anyone actually use them? In my eyes, these need 'pre-meditating' and aren't easy to simply execute by reaction. My proposal is below, but here's some thinking based on me being an active cricketer...

    Xbox Academy Broken ?

    It's exactly like this for me. I'm trying to download teams by username 'wasteyouryouth' - i managed to download India a few weeks ago, but ever since, I just get stuck on the downloading teams screen and can't even get any to pull through to download. Also submitted a support request.

    Caught and Bowled

    Might be my rubbish batting, but almost every straight drive ends in a caught and Bowled being taken, even if timing etc is ideal. Is this a known problem? Or any tips to avoid it (apart from put the shot away!)

    Xbox - does game purchase carry over to Series S/X

    Hey all. I bought the game on the original Xbox One and I'm pretty disappointed with the graphics compared to some of the really smooth looking next gen videos. So, this could be the nudge to upgrade to a Series S. What I want to know is, will my Xbox One digital purchase carry over to...

    Cricket 22 General Impressions

    Is anyone playing it on the old Xbox One? I think it looks pretty good on PS5/Xbox Series S/X but keen to see what it looks like on an Xbox One before parting with £50 for a digital download...

    Cricket 22 General Discussion thread (Use bug report thread for issues/bugs/crashes | Patch notes in first post)

    Have there been any news on on pitch tweaks. I don't mean new features, but improvements to gameplay/AI etc which established followers of the series will appreciate? I get that they're trying to get new people in to the series by talking about accessibility and training drills so they know...

    Cricket 22 Announced.

    Yes I know about windows, but presumably it would run through Steam if I purchased it there now (for my laptop), as long as the game is compatible with the Steam Deck I guess

    Cricket 22 Announced.

    It'll be interesting to see if this is going to be playable on the upcoming Steam Deck... Asked BA a few times on twitter but had no replies yet. Dev kits are available now, so they have the opportunity to test.

    Cricket 22 General Discussion thread (Use bug report thread for issues/bugs/crashes | Patch notes in first post)

    I've been off these forums for a while... is this a NEW game, or is it another DLC? I see the Eng and Aus logos in the footer of the end screen, so new Ashes game potentially? (It'll be interesting to see them load in England's 3rd XI when no one travels!)

    Get Best - is it a thing in Cricket 19?

    Hi - is 'Get Best' a thing in Cricket 19 as it was in previous BA games? I'm on the Switch and it'll be really fiddly to replace all teams one by one; willing to take my chances with 'get best'. If it is a thing, where is it on Switch? I can't seem to find it! (Or is there an easy way to mass...

    Academy Q&A

    I'm late to this so excuse my question... Is there a 'get best' option on Nintendo Switch just like for previous versions of Big Ant games? If so, where is it?! And is it worth using?! I know previously get best wasn't ideal, but given the slowness of the switch and lack of mouse etc it'll...

    Cricket 19 Nintendo switch.

    So is the Switch an older version of the game then?

    Cricket 19 Nintendo switch.

    Does that include improvements to the Switch version, or is more support going to be given to the bigger consoles?

    Community "GET BEST" - It is probably in your own best interest not to use Get Best

    Thank you - can I then delete the custom teams which i've used to replace the on-disk with (memory and all that!)

    Community "GET BEST" - It is probably in your own best interest not to use Get Best

    Ahh. Is that new?! So i'm going in to Cricket Academy > Teams... then Delete Team. I currently have just Ireland, NZ, Pakistan and SA in the International tab, and all the others in Custom. Should I delete them all? Or am I best linking the teams in Custom to the on-disk international? This...

    Community "GET BEST" - It is probably in your own best interest not to use Get Best

    Hi, in the first couple of days after release I downloaded all international teams by LlewelynF7, however as expected some featured on-disk player names etc. So today I've gone to download all international teams again individually (by searching by gamer ID), and it's reverted all of them back...

    Ashes Cricket General Discussion

    What are people's opinions on the pace the ball comes off the bat? Seems to rocket off most occasions even if not attempting an aggressive shot. Just wondered if anyone has used the slider for this and found a happy medium?

    Ashes Cricket General Discussion

    What do people recommend for the camera settings? I quite like batting using broadcast 1 so that I can see the batting animations front on, however I've not quite got the right running cam set up as it seems to pan away very quickly. So yeah, just wondered whether people (especially the beta...

    Friedlele Creations - IPL 2018 Teams updated 08/04/2018

    Sorry, another QQ - has BA implemented a visual which shows when an update to a previously downloaded team is available? I used to update every 2 months or so just to ensure my squads were as up to date as possible, but it would be cool if there was a visual pointer show that a creator's...
