One thing that annoys me in current games is the u as the batsman can see where the bowler will pitch the ball, eliminating the element of suprise. The cursor, if there will be one, should be appear quite late or once it bounces. Thus a yorker will cause suprise and a bouncer can be picked up more easily. Maybe a batsman confidence could effect his perception of where the ball will land.
In C2002, the Cpu makes huge adjustments for the batsman, making shot selection too easy. What ever shot u play the batsman will ove of his own accord and connect with the ball. Will this be the same in your game?
Ps I wanna to be a tester too. I can also help with the research.
