Haven't got the demo yet but I'm sure plenty have, what's the final score you've gotten.

Not very good yet, not sure what my best is but I got 64/8 just then (WI v England). I thought I'd be clever and try to beat that by altering England's bowling lineup, but that backfired as Geraint Jones and Marcus Trescothick removed my top five for ducks. :-O. Difficulty adjusting to the 30mph deliveries...

I was looking good in one game, I hit Dillon's first over for 22 - but ended up with only fifty-odd.

My best so far is 120 for 2 and i had england all out for 25 off 5 overs but i tinkered with their batting order( i put the bowlers batting first and the basstman last)

So when can we expect you to become champion of 100 or so games in the Arcade then?

That's mathematically impossible unless you scored at least 198 runs.

no cause it was in the last over..... i think they had 2 balls left
If they had two balls left it would have been a multiple of three (i.e. not 398). If they had three balls left it could only be 398 if they needed another 199 runs.

Exactly, I don't believe any score over 100 til I see it - every time I hit a couple of fours/sixes there's like 9 fielders on the boundary.

Heres a pic of my last game (worked out i was pressing alt printscreen instead of printscreen by itself) pretty pathetic. I'll post my next game in 20 mins

wasnt looking too good batting wise until strauss came on to bowl...... stupid move by england there with his 3 no balls all going for 6 and his over costing 46. However a respectable total and a pretty good bowling effort by me, if i say so myself

what are peoples bowling tips then, i rarely get any wickets
Same here, although I've hardly bowled much, I've usually quit after the batting. Everytime I bowl anything remotely near the stumps it get smashed over/through fine leg.
