How is the AI run rate in test matches. ?

 

[chintoo02018]

AI runout bug and nerfed shots are the biggest problem (IMO) in the current console patch. And from the open preview feedback, both seems to have been fixed.

Also Add in Major issue AI Field Placement is not smart ... , AI not takes quick single and different shots in shorter format .

Well that's some variation in powerplay run-rates for sure!

(bowled as both teams)

What are the teams?

SL then England.

Wicket was dry/hard/pristine, not sure why SL were so defensive.

Can you please try to fix the day n night matches stuttering issue before the final patch for Ashes Cricket? The game looks so good in day n night matches but we are not playing because of this issue.

I am thankful to all those beta testers who test the game out on a daily basis. But I just have the following issues which I don't know whether they ran into or not and they are frustrating enough to drive me out of the game. We know cricket is a heavily momentum based game and I mostly play tests, So I'd like to mention these issues :

1. The ball is going through the bat even when everything is displayed as 'good' in the HUD and it is visible in replays too. And today I ran into this issue for the second time and it was given as LBW with the ball going through the bat. This issue is not game breaking if its not given as a LBW but if it was, it just breaks the momentum and gets me frustrated enough to leave me all out in a snap.

2. Running.. Everything about running(atleast in online) for the most part is lacking belief. I am always worried about when my batsman is gonna belly-dance around his crease and get stumped or again dance around the crease after completing a run and of course he won't run back after cancelling a run.

3. This issue was unique and it has started happening after the second last patch(the one before yesterday's). In online matches the kits,logos(only some are visible),bat logos are all generic and only the faces of players seems to be in place.

Again, Thanks for patching this game on a regular basis!
