Special Achievements

Was pretty happy with this win after NZ bowled us out for 196 and were 215-0 in their first innings.

Couldn't believe this from Bairstow. 244*. From 4-4. Including partnership of 90 for the last wicket.

A marathon effort by my team. An acceptable tie :D

More crazy than a particularly amazing achievement... back-to-back ties against New Zealand!

In my Pakistan game Shadab Khan broke Wasim Akram's test wicket record at the age of 26. In the course of doing so he done something special by taking all ten wickets in an innings.

I don't think I have defended a total anywhere near this small before!

bryce87 can you teach me how to bat in T20? And also bowl? I never play this format but seeing this, I would like to get some tips from you. And maybe even a video?

You want batting tips from me after seeing me get 95 all out??? :rolleyes:

I am not a master tactician by any stretch. I have played people in online games who are master tacticians and they almost always beat me even if I have a much better side.

I just try and use tactics which are fast and effective as I like to see the game progress at a decent pace so I don't really experiment that much because I am trying to go so fast.

For T20 batting I generally start on 7 aggression. If things are going bad go down to 6. If things are going well or not many overs left go up to full.

For T20 bowling I generally start on 1 aggression. After powerplay I move down to zero unless things are going well keep on 1.

However as I have said in other threads the T20 engine messed up. Sometimes I am on 6 aggression scoring at 10+ an over not losing wickets and sometimes on full aggression scoring at 5 an over and not losing wickets.

I think the developers should modify it so when batting in T20 the 6 aggression means almost exclusively ones and twos, strike rotation in other words. 7 aggression is strike rotation while looking for boundaries. Full aggression is trying to hit a boundary every ball, so blocks/leaves and other half-assed shots you currently see when players are batting on full aggression are no more.

I don't remember ever hitting a one day double ton before but I just hit a big one

Adam Zampa took 6/10 for me in a T20 game, and I think 7/20-something in an ODI - will screenshot sometime tomorrow. Multiple International double hundreds across Test and ODI games, D'Arcy Short a debut Test hundred, as well as two regen batsman Bruce Rowell and Craig Benn, who debuted at 3 and opening respectively and posted hundreds first up. Very early in Bruce Rowell's career but I think he might well surpass Ricky Ponting if I get the save that far.

Miscellaneous screenshots:

D'Arcy Short is a long form beast for some reason. Not complaining.



New number three goes okay as well.



Behold, my T20 king.

Took me a while but I finally done it. Screenshot of my captain to go with it who is still going strong after 40 test hundreds.

6/1 turned into 8/13 in T20 game :cool:
