In settings there is an option a.i. choose human bowlers. If that is ticked untick it from the check box. I believe it will sort out your issue. ---

agreed, Average doubles in a T20 game are about 9 per side. ---

The last 2 patches have ruined the T20 game experience. Every dismissal is caught in the ring or boundary. No wk catch, no lbw, no bowled. Tried on different AI settings. It’s repetitive and boring. If people are enjoying this, then that’s great,. Maybe for Tests it’s slightly better. ---

Ai batting first is great but batting second while chasing is collapsing every match irrespective of any sliders or archetypes, similar collapse unnecessary slogging and wickets in the powerplay (while chasing) In chase players dont play according to their archetypes, dont react in a balanced way even after 2 consecutive wickets fall, whereas batting first AI plays according to archetypes maintaining a good run rate and acts proactively on fall of wickets preventing collapse, here anchor, finesse archetypes while chasing tried slogging on their first balls got out and its the same story in every t20 game @MattW ![Screenshot (335)](https://board.bigant.com/uploads/default/original/2X/7/740244f7606c7d3e2db1cec747b46b7f10cf27ac.jpeg) ---

I dunno, I went through streaks like that too. But in recent times I’m able to bowl guys out now. Perhaps just luck of the draw… maybe AI settings? ---

Can be achieved in any format just has to be in one match with the same player. So a few matches ago I scored about 140 runs and took 5 wickets in a 4 day first class match so should have gotten the trophy ---

Why is BigAnt And Ross just ignoring every question that the users are asking about IPL player face updates? Atleast let us know if the scans are yet to happen, already done or postponed IPL is about to end and all questions are being openly ignored ---

Thank you. Very nice. I have had 3 bowled since the patch a week ago. 1 caught behind. They are there, I just think from playing quite a few matches that the majority of dismissals are ring/boundary. You could say thats t20s, but there should be a bit more variation. It was there before that patch a week ago..the patch on Thursday didn’t change anything. Something definitely changed in that patch a week ago as all I changed in my AI, sliders is the run rate as above 50 is ridiculous..well done with that Big Ant lol Overall the variety in shots is way better, more 1s etc. Could do with more 2s, and less collapses. ---

Funny, just played a T20 and the AI ran 6 doubles not bad ---

This game does my head in Played a game today, got a bowled with Rashid khan, was brilliant. All rest was outfield catches. Had a few 2s ha. This game has so much going for it, just needs a few little tweaks. ---

Nice. But still T20 needs tweaking at the moment doubles are very rare in the majority of games I played. Entire focus is towards 4s and 6s. Need a balanced gameplay where there are singles,doubles,4s and 6s. I have noticed many instances where doubles are possible but for some reason AI don’t go for them. Even when 3 runs are possible they will settle for double. Irrespective of the format running is one thing that can be made aggressive as now days even the slightest of misfields result in taking doubles. If you play T20s at the moment it feels quite scripted. Need variety in wickets, Need variations in pattern of scoring how can a team lose 2-3 wickets in powerplay every time and get out the same way mistime to the cover’s fielder. Need AI targeting different lines and making it challenging to play rather than just keep bowling back off length off stump line and make it repetitive and boring after some time. AI Bowlers can bowl more variations in T20s like off cutters ,slower bowls and keep mixing lengths. Bowling in T20s is all about variations,mixing lengths. Similarly in test format AI bowling approach can be more towards channel bowling. At the moment there are too many bouncers resulting in extras. Bowlers can target 4th and 5th stump line but also target stumps from time to time. ---

Game playing well after recent patches. A few observations …on longer format games Test matches/1st class can save a session and the weather can be sunny and when resuming the game the weather conditions are not resuming with the same conditions. Also the ball does not visually wear while the AI is bowling. Lastly seems short leg superhuman catches are back. Otherwise enjoying the game but would appreciate the above being looked at for improvement ---

Yes, these are the issues. Apart, weather is all good having no issues with that. But the other issues are there which was mentioned. [Previous page](https://board.bigant.com/t/cricket-26-megathread/4503.md?page=42) [Next page](https://board.bigant.com/t/cricket-26-megathread/4503.md?page=44)
