Best Camera angles

On Cricket 17 I went with the fixed close camera for batting and the bowling far camera for bowling, but I found I wasn't getting a great view of the stumps when bowling so that made appealing/DRS challenges difficult, a lot failed because they looked out when they weren't even close!

This time around I've kept the batting camera the same, as with cricket games of old, but I've tried the pro bowling camera I think it is and that's much better.

My only issue is, I can't seem to find a decent camera angle for the batsmen. As soon as I've played the ball the running camera switches to pro mode, which is good but can't always judge where the ball is so getting a lot of run outs.

What works for you?

Best running camera for me is broadcast 2.

The broadcast running cams follow the ball from above so easier to see boundary and judge if it's going to make boundary

Batting: Batting Close

Running : Fielding 2 / Pro cam for career.

Bowling : Bowling Close

Fielding : Fielding 2

These are ones I use.. My preference always being close to the action as much as possible..

Its not realistic you don't have that view as a batsman.

Thank me later

That's been the one I've used today and although the running camera isn't realistic it's been the most useful at getting me used to the game engine and dynamic so I can switch to the batter's view a bit eaiser in later career games. Many thanks!

I'm still trying to work out what I like best.

Part of me wants the pro mode, as if I'm actually playing myself. But then sometimes I find it difficult to see the ball marker, especially if the delivery is very full. It can also be a bit all over the place and make you feel a bit sick

Totally agree regards pro mode batting cam. I can't see where pitched up/Yorker balls are and feel nauseous after a few overs.
