Bowling in Test Matches

[imported_Inside_Edge]

Hi, i'm a newbie to this forum,

I'm just wondering if a computer batsman can be bowled out in a Test Match???

I've played quite a few tests now, and I can bowl out teams for low totals with mainly edges being caught, or lbw's. But to me it seems impossible to get a clean hit at the stumps. I don't find this very realistic at all. Has someone put out a patch to fix this or is this flaw something we might have to live with till hopefully cricket 2004 fixes it.

Thanks in advance for your responses.

Yes!! Yes they can! I use Brett Lee and rip through the stumps by keeping the ball in the block hole!! With and Without any patches!!

Woah! Was this towards the end of the 5th day with computer chasing the runs??

Or just persistance?

They seem to block EVERYTHING that I bowl at the stumps

there's a trick tho...that may cost a lot of runs......dunno if it's just pure luck tho

bowl crap slow wide deliveries and the last ball...yorker and full pace at the stumps!

also...swap around and over the wicket....and for me...the more aggressive the field, the more the batsman will hit there!

I find it pretty easy to bowl the computer using spinners. I'll try and post a screenshot sometime.
