Can we have AI vs AI games in management mode with the option to give live instructions to our players like setting batting aggression levels for striker and non striker , choosing the batting order , telling bowlers to bowl with a particular bowling plans like bowling more yorkers, bowling more line and length stuff or more variations or more bouncers etc , also being able to select the aggression level for bowlers , more aggression=high chance of wicket but can go for runs and same for the batsmen and setting field setup against particular opposing team batters , like defensive fielding against an attacking batsmen , or attacking field when the batsmen has just came in to the crease etc.
It will make management mode AI vs AI games really interactive and will give us Football manager type feeling and realism because AI vs AI is already in the game and it’s brilliant , so why not utilize it for management mode and truly feel like a manager?
Also in the training options , kindly allow us to train our batters/bowlers for one specific skill like bowling outswing , or training batter to play sweep shots etc.
It would be great to have PACE attributes in the game which directly translate in to bowling speed of the bowler , a younger bowler shouldn’t have high pace even if his role is a FAST BOWLER unless he develops over the years and gain his PACE attributes due to training etc.
A small feature request this, but when being able to create match types, you can choose test wides or limited overs wides, but nowadays limited overs wides means almost anything at all down leg side even pretty close to the stump.
Back in the 80’s and earlier you could sort’ve get away with a little bit wider in ODI’s. Could we get 70’s/80’s ODI wides added as an option also when creating match types?
I have raised multiple tickets, kindly allow us to edit batting styles of licensed players who have inaccurate styles such as all indian players. it wont violate license agreements as if we are allowed to edit their bats then please allow to edit batting styles too because default batting styles are no where close to their real styles whereas 4 new added styles are good and can only be used if we can apply on players we want
Really like the gameplay in C26 as you now require to judge the movement of the ball but in reality it is so difficult the judge the final position of the ball and execute proper shot accordingly , perhaps an optional arrow icon with it’s tail directly proportional to the amount of movement in the air/off the pitch will make the gameplay more better and challenging.
Like if it is going to move towards leg big time , a right arrow with big tail should appear and if it’s marginally going to move then the right arrow with small tail etc. the arrow should appear for batsmen with high judgement attribute and if it’s below 60s then no arrow should appear and if it’s in 70s then arrow should appear with no big or small tail but if the batter judgment rating is greater than 80s then it should display the tail as well.
So batting will be easier with high rated players and will be difficult for tailenders.
Please add player rankings in career mode along with team rankings. Currently career mode is as same as c19,c22,c24. Please add this player rankings we would like to see our player raising in the rankings.
When starting a tournament or a world championship, please give us the option to choose a host country or countries and schedule the matches in stadiums of those countries only.
Hello! I hope everyone is doing great. First of all, I want to thank the Big Ant team for creating such a fantastic game. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting this level of quality, especially within the first few months of release. I’ve been playing cricket games since Cricket 19, and there are a couple of things I’ve always felt were missing, which I’d love to point out.
1. Overthrows After the Stumps Are Broken
One thing I’ve noticed is that once the stumps are hit by direct hit from a fielder, the batters can’t run additional overthrows, even if the ball deflects back into the field. Meanwhile, the AI can take those extra runs. It feels a bit awkward and inconsistent that the AI can take advantage of these situations but human players can’t.
2. Fielding Mini-Game Throw Delay
Secondly, the fielding mechanics in Cricket 26 are genuinely great, but there’s one small issue. During the fielding mini-game, the fielder takes quite a long time to actually release the throw. Because of this delay, the chances of getting a run-out, especially from inside the 30-yard circle, become very low. If the throw animation could be made quicker or more responsive, it would make fielding feel even more realistic and satisfying.
Player appearance - could we please somehow be able to edit gloves/shoes. Or at least have plain white gloves for test/fc games as default. Never seen dark gloves in a test match yet bethell, Smith and Jofra all have dark gloves. Just looks wrong and takes away for me. Sure it doesn’t bother most but it takes away for me.
Batting/Bowling styles - as many have mentioned, can we edit these? So many have incorrect styles. Really takes away from the experience.

Nov 21 patch is – fielding, visuals & stability upgrades are game-changers! Big thanks, team!
But batting feels limited & repetitive after 20 overs – please add T20 magic: ramps, scoops, switch-hits, more leg-side flicks for IPL/BBL blasts!
Easier advanced shots? Make short formats fun & explosive, not just Test grind.
Echoing the community
How about start by fixing basic issues that shouldn’t have been an issue in the first place?! These were all flagged & reported the day of release, & still not fixed. Pretty bloody ordinary BAS.
Create a team - No team logos displayed on shirts
Create a stadium - Rotate scenic background function does not work.
Logo creator - Copy & paste function does not work.
Not sure anyone from BAS reads any of these posts, & if they do, not sure that they care anyway. People keep buying their half-baked games regardless.
Instead of choosing a time to start a match, could we choose morning/afternoon/dusk/evening? I’m playing a t20 on play now, apparently it’s 20:03 at night and it’s still daylight
Seeing that Syhlet has been added, it would be awesome to see more licensed international stadiums added to the game.
Also more stadium creator options would be great to allow the community to fill the gaps with what stadiums are missing. Those guys do an incredible job.
I also heard somebody say the career mode international fixture is still the same. I would like to see the fixture updated, or randomised after the current future torus programme is complete so we are not just repeating the same fixture over and over. Or allow the feature to edit the upcoming calander so we can change this ourselves
in pro team in frndly match we need custom over option and difficulty option. if this not comes then pro team goes to fail again same as c24. for five over why we buy player for money . u think if u want to make pro team success
