Hello
Is there an option for ball marker to be turned on when bowling??
Ross, cricket 26 far more better than 24,Though I ve seen changes.like,naming the openers fielders, catcher,now and then,that’s really lively,not wicket keepers.It would be more interesting,if the tems or players reach 50 or 100 49, 99 and batsmen getting.Not like in cricket 24.Raise your bat thumps up to the batting team,they back to pavilion.Some voice needed with naming.Need improvements.Bugs r there.I ve played few proteam,went well.Smts,Its stuck.Showing it is loading,I waited for 15m,nothing shown.Test match, slipper and keeper colliding each other,breaking one’s body.After updation, fielding is improved.Except,one.The opposition batters taking singles, pushing the ball into the circle.When my team player picking the ball and throwing is very slow.I ve not hearing Fleming comment.Sofar,I found this.Ross & his crew, putting their efforts.Hatsoff.Thnx for permitting me to post my comment.
We can’t change the number fonts when editing teams, and since update 1.3 the straight drive animation is broken, otherwise this game has been so much fun.
Why does crowd celebrate English wicket while fall of English wicket and so on….these small things can add a lot to the game
Hi There, first of all, we’ll done on the game, Im enjoying it alot! Like the new overhaul from previous editions, few bugs I noticed so far, I was playing a test in Perth, weather was sunny but then we got called of due to rain and it wasn’t overcast or anything or didn’t see any rain drops, and sometimes when the captian gets shown they normally stand inside or right behind a player, other than that, good game 
Hope those gets fixed

Game is good. I still dislike how often the AI hits directly, it’s basically every quick run or cancelled run… never overthrows, just wild direct hits. It needs to be toned down massively, and it has for a long time. Or make them hold onto it more often to avoid an overthrow. It really kills the immersion of so many plays in this game… seeing the bails just fall meekly to the ground every run.

Love the game. Much more smooth.
Couple of issues.
I might be doing this wrong, but in create a player, under the proficiency tab, no bowler is able to be good against openers and top order. How does it work.
Secondly the bowler bar needs to be clearer in classic controls. The green doesn’t look clear and this is leading to a lot of no balls
The logo creator on PS5 is absolute garbage. Copy & paste doesn’t work, next to no instructions…. POS.
Just marvellous game crashes and wipes all my saved data when re starting it
Some difficulty settings after tinkering with, will go to 0 or negative numbers lol I saw catching radius was -47 or something weird, and I was wondering why my pace bowlers were getting no swing! It was at 0?? haha
BTW I knocked a stump out of the ground, it was glorious!
And then DLS gave me a win was I was 32 below par! Work on DLS please, it can’t be that difficult to put a calculator in the game? But maybe.
Have played it since release on Thursday. Overall it seems ok apart from the score HUD when you’re playing The Hundred. It looked better in Cricket24. What happened?!
@MattW @RossSymons As promised, more comments as I continue to play the game. I’ll start with positives: I like to do this to reiterate how impressed I am with the game. The other comments are really just so we all get what we truly desire, which is a cricket game which is as close to a real life simulation as Big Ants can possibly get it. And to be honest - Based on what I’ve seen so far, we’re headed in the right direction. I MUST MUST comment on the way the ball is coming off the bat, I mentioned the defensive shots pinging to mid off etc, but Stokes played a lofted drive off Boland - it’s the best executed shot I’ve ever seen on a cricket game. And I know it’s not a new shot, but the trajectory of the ball, it literally felt like I was at home watching the Ashes live on 7 Sports. The ball was flat, it flew through the air and went one bounce into the boundary. TOP CLASS. Then Brook hit Lyon about 15 rows back, one of the cleanest sixes I’ve seen in the entire franchise to-date. I’m super excited about where this game is heading. Now for the feedback for improvements - 1. Fielders are throwing with the wrong hand again. I saw Hazlewood throw with his left hand and Starc throw with his right hand. 2. Have you guys removed the option to pull back the ball inside the boundary when the fielder is approaching the rope? On semi-automatic fielding, I wasn’t able to do it when i pressed triangle (PS5) and on automatic, the fielder ran straight into the boundary. Please bring it back. 3. Funny enough England’s first innings mirrored closely to the real events which unfolded in the recently concluded test match. Harry brook was batting with Mark wood - England were 187/9 and he ran a single on the first ball. Would’ve been nice if AI refused the single given the situation of the game. (Food for thought) 4. I’ve noticed since the new patch that players who usually field with long sleeve shirts - Smith, Root, Head, Lyon etc all had on short sleeve shirts in the field. I know it’s minor and might just be an issue with the new patch, but it was worth commenting on. And finally - licensed players not having arm bands, arm guards etc to reflect their real life counterparts - minor again, but goes a long way in making the game as real as possible.
The hundred seemed really low quality in c26 to me? Not sure if I’m alone in that
Getting a double image sometimes when player are close to each other
Hi Matt and Ross.
Can you please improve Ms Dhonis player face. Even the updated player face after the recent patch does not seem to be depicting his actual face. Also can you please fix the visuals in the cut scenes such as the captain walking into another player. Can you please change Kl Rahul and Rohit Sharmas batting stance since they do not bat like style 2 and bat more like the standard style. Also Hardik Pandya bats more like style 7 please look into that. Hoping you’d do the needful.
What is going on with pro.team as well keep.saying match report.error with a long code then saying.loading pro.team and stays like.that forever.
Theres a lot of good and potential in this game but some glaring things need fixing to make it stand out.
Off the top of my head…
-
AI running - playing test matches and they hardly ever take more than a single, even on balls right to the boundary edge when they could saunter two, push for three - this really needs more urgency putting into their efforts to run more when its on offer.
-
Shining the ball leads to the bowler trying to bowl from another pitch - im sure you know about this one.
-
AI on runout attempts NEVER and i mean NEVER misses the stumps - this is not realistic, needs to be more of a 50/50 hit and miss ratio. Currently they are automatons who never miss.
-
Sounds - could do with tweaking. Crowd applaud after every dot ball - simply no need for it, and can we make them louder when a wicket falls? Sounds like a morgue currently when they do.
-
The AI when batting now and again launches an exocet missile type shot, far harder than any aggressive shot we as humans can play - can we remove this please?
-
Rain delays - any chance we could see some actual rain?
-
The keepers - they make some lovely takes but other times stand motionless as if an animation doesnt trigger and you have the first slip diving in front of them taking regulation dot balls for a keeper.
Theres more but for me the critical ones here are the AI running between the wickets and keeper reactions.
Thanks - im sure you can make this game much better with even just a few glaring alterations.

How can someone be 51 in 20 balls and not be “in” - green bar, yet? Is there a green? If so, makes no sense! Is there a setting I change?
Funny enough David became green at 18 off 10.
Please fix community server as we cannot search for random teams.
Players not yelling “Howzat!” No player voices. I turned commentary down, I wonder if it’s some how weirdly connected, or did the patch do something weird?
Also AI players are so late to appeal, kinda ruins the immersion.
