I was just about to post the same thing. Good to hear that walking down the wicket and slogging may be an option but I presume this is risky.

It would be good if there was some way of limiting the no. of yorkers per over

Hi mate well cant you charge down the track making it a full toss and sweep them like they did in the t20 worldcup. Can you sweep them fine for a 4 or a six of third man ?

The thing is that while it's easier to bowl yorkers, it's also a lot easier to advance the paceman off his length than in reality. The massive advantage for you is that pace can't really beat you in flight or turn it around you like a spinner. You can also defend on the charge, which means you shouldn't really be getting boned by good ones.

Like in most games, validity of a tactic depends on how valid the counter is. People whose strategy is 'just do this and this' aren't good gamesmen and will get beaten by anyone who is prepared to deliver multiple counters.

Cricket itself shouldn't be about orthodoxy for its own sake. The reality of it is that some bowl full, some bowl short, some like the off side, some like leg. They can't all succeed simultaneously. The reason there are orthodox methods is because there are sustainable ways of doing things and economical ways to counter them. Even then, the path of least resistance to Phil Hughes is not in any way similar to that of Ricky Ponting. If someone's strategy is not orthodox, you still must be prepared to show them why it should be.

Come on man, this is the 2000's. Computer games are DEAD if they can't be played online. At least an online game has no AI cheating, you know when the CPU needs a wicket, or goal, and there is nothing you can do to stop it, it's written in the script!!!!)

I bowl short, tactics to induce a catch.

Online is the ONLY way to create a masterpiece now.

That's why I'm annoyed with Cricket Revolution for being focused on multiplayer! Chances are, that's all people will do with that as well.

U can't blame them who bowls yorkers. Virtually everyone bowls them. This is because according to Codies, good length means killing the wicket keeper with beamers. :rtfl:clap:clap:D

Stop moaning FFS! Unless the game is laggy, yorkers are stupidly easy smash all over the pitch.

Actually if you read his post, he is not moaning in the least bit.
