    ICC 2008 Succession Game Results

    CC Game 7 Lancashire welcomed Horton and Flintoff back with open arms for the first-class away fixture against mid-table Sussex. Loye was left out to rest and prepare for the upcoming semi-final, his spot taken by Marshall who was to play his first first-class match of the season. Law won the...

    ICC 2008 Succession Game Results

    The return home clash against Yorkshire two days later is one the Lancashire faithful were depesrately seeking a win in. Smith came in for Newby as the up-and-down bowling attack - badly missing Andrew Flintoff, was persisted with. Another toss won and another decision to bat first. Run-out...

    ICC 2008 Succession Game Results

    We were unchanged for the Yorkshire fixture. Won the toss and batted then started disasterously - Du Plessis lbw to Hoggard and then Marshall ran Loye out to be 20/2 after four overs. Yousuf hit an effortless 23 runs before Hoggard got him in front with a ball that ducked in late. Marshall - who...

    ICC 2008 Succession Game Results

    Newby came back in for the Leicestershire fixture as Lancashire played five fast bowlers on a pitch expected to do a bit for the seamers. With this in mind Law was pleased to win the toss and field first. Anderson started well and had two wickets after five overs with the score at 36/2...

    Johnson isn't too consistent with the ball but makes a quality number nine. Just managed to chase 502 vs the Africans to seal a series

    My new Bradman...

    Yeah, with youth players the only real guide to how good they are is 2nd XI average. With youth players also take note of 2nd XI conversion rates(100's to 50's) plus amount of not-outs for batsmen and RPO's for bowlers. Generally a quality batsman will be 50+ 2nd XI and a quality bowler -20 2nd...

    My new Bradman...

    Yeah, well I never would have either if all the other best online teams did. It was a case of either not replaying contracts screens and getting owned online or CAD'ing so you can get players that will be competetive in online matches. It is a depressing exercise but since I wanted to be...

    My new Bradman...

    This is the best team I ever got without replaying contracts screens

    My new Bradman...

    I'm sorry to say but the way I got him is alot more boring than you may have hoped. It is just pushing ctrl+alt+del at the contracts and then restarting the contracts screens until you see a youth player you want with a good 2nd team average. It is an unbelievably boring exercise, but I had to...

    Tips for bowling effectively (ICC 2002)

    I find that leaving the bowling agression on three bars seems to have the best results. Also take into account what sort of bowlers the pitch is favouring and what preferences the batsman has - i.e say if a batsman has a strong pace bowling preference I would normally try and keep at least one...

    My new Bradman...

    Hmmmm:unsure: Unsure as to what the future holds for this thread but truth be told Pietersen couldn't come near matching Bradman for run scoring in any of the ICC's(unless of course you cheat). You only really have to endure 2-3 tough seasons before you can have a quality squad so i've never...

    ICC 2009 Features

    Obviously it would be nice if they could implement everything from the professional cricketing world in the game but that is not going to happen. If any new major features come on future ICC games it probaly should be considered a minor miracle.
