I love this game!

Just bought ICC 2005, thought it might be worth the plunge. Playing my first game as Warwickshire & England.

What drama! Chasing 549 to win, the Aussies fall short - I had two days to bowl them out, but it took an age to take the first wicket.

Who said the King of Spain wasn't a match winner? Some game this one, considering England having to do without Freddie (muscle strain)

Can't beat realism eh?

You upload them to the forums with the "Manage Attachments" link.

Cool game, though. Viva el Ashley!

I hope Giles bowled Round the wicket...otherwise it virtually impossible to get LBW's as a left arm orthodox bowler.
and I know..as i am one.

btw: Mom Tresco..seems a bit dodgy to me!

This hurts.

Played about 3 or 4 close matches today...

Beat England by one run in the 3rd ODI to take the 3 match series

Made a pretty quick 50 with Brad Hodge today. Probably not the fastest, but still quite quick.

Nice innings mate, still only one the 6 suggests that the issue of not enough sixes hasn't been resolved

 

[Kweek]

we already knew that ages ago really. which is really fking stupid if you ask me!

It's certainly better than before. I've had several innings where batsmen have hit 2 or 3 sixes - something which didn't happen before. I usually get at least 2 in a normal OD innings.

It's still not good enough. They said it was fixed. 0 6s in a 63 off 24? If Cairns,Flintoff,Gilly ever did that you would expect lots of 6s not 1 or 2.

I have to agree...I feel there are more 6's in 2005, I average 3-4 in a ODI if its a good batting strip.

Having just taken the 6th wicket with the score at 524, the Essex bowlers must have been pleased to see Flintoff striding to the wicket to join Gilchrist

 

[chooka_nick]

Can I have your team please?

Batting down to 9, I see?

[King_Ponting]

anyone one else noticeing that in 4 day and one day games the MOM always goes to batsmen and in 20/20's the bowlers always get it??? I had a bowler take 5 for 14 in a one dayer and a batsman that made 73* was apparently the better performer. However in a 20/20 one of my bowlers took 3 fer and one of my batsman scored 110* and the bowler got the award...... Anyone one else noticed this... (ICC2005)

 

[squiz]

yup, there's a whole thread about it
