(This article describes the issue and then the fix)

Issue - Once the ball is played and the batsmen are running or fielders chasing and backing up - the ball flickers all over the place. When batsmen takes his stance and hits the ball (everything works perfectly fine but) once it's hit and while watching the replays, everything flickers. It only happens while playing this game so I am sure that my system is perfectly alright!

My System Specs : i7 -6700 HQ @ 2.60 hz
Nvidia GeForce GTX 960M 4GB
16 GB RAM

I am sure it's pretty decent to play this game but the issue even persists when I downgrade the game settings (Technically I shouldn't be doing it as my system handles games like COD and BF1 very well




After doing a lot of research online and trying a whole bunch of things above, I finally found something that worked for me


FIX


1) Make sure the drivers (Nvidia, Steam etc.) are up to date
2) In Nvidia Control Panel (Select High perfomance GPU)
3) Go to the NVidia control panel and then turn off v-sync in the control panel. Then go to the game settings and turn off v-sync in the game settings as well

Can confirm this occasionally happens on my PC as well.

Specs

Intel i5 4690k
GTX970
16GB RAM

Not a specs issue. Framerate actually doesn't drop either. Which is odd

I am sure it's not a system issue. I think it's a bug or something else. We have to get this fixed

I have been experiencing the same flickering issues as mentioned above. But i found out a workaround to tackle this. While in game, I had to press "ALT + TAB" (twice or thrice). Once i do that the flickering issue will no longer exists (game runs so smoothly ;)) until i restart the game.

Not sure whether this issue is something related to system / graphic settings. If BIGANT (@MattW , @HBK619) could guide / fix it through game updates to solve this permanently would be much appreciated.

System Spec:
OS: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit
Intel i5-4670 CPU @3.40GHz
8GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770

Still having slight issues graphically and flickery as well. One thing that happens a lot is that at the end of the over I get a commentary or announcement stick for 3 or 4 seconds so for example I'll get:

"Ess, Ess, Ess, Ess, Essex kept it tight in that over"

Not sure if it's related, but I had that kind of a problem in DBC 14. The culprit was an ageing HDD whose read/write actions had slowed down pretty considerably. Once I got a new one, the stuttering went away.

I don't think it would be that as my laptop is just three months old and is a gaming one.

I might have found a fix for this. Pressing Alt + Enter when the match starts fixes the issue but not completely.
During day matches, it's almost perfect, but, during night matches there's a bit of stuttering/flickering only in the replays.

@MattW @BigAntStudios this issue is still there. The game flickers like no tomorrow once a ball is hit. Everything is same as mentioned in the description of this page. Please have this fixed as this is really annoying.[DOUBLEPOST=1493867245][/DOUBLEPOST]
I actually thought it was definetely fixed in the last update for me.
Didn't work for me buddy. I have the latest patch and nothing changed
