How do i make big scores

[Monty]

IAm australia and i cant seem to score more than 90 runs with one player they always get out in the 80s or early 90s please help

 

[squiz]

If they're getting out in the 80's or 90's try lessening their aggressiveness

 

[Monty]

they are on 3 bars

 

[age_master]

what sort of fatigue? when they get tired i usually bat them on 2 or 1 if im not in a rush to preserve them for the next day

 

[bryce]

they are on 3 bars

if there on three bars i'd say you've just been unlucky so far and the big scores should start coming

How do you make scores like 350- and beyond, is that possible?

 

[kears_falcon_9]

it is possible but i always get stuck around the 200 mark...

 

[kears_falcon_9]

hang on r u talkin about team scores or individual scores? cause individual i get stuck around 200 but team i canget well over 400 in OD and well over 600 in FC.

 

[Gilchrist]

I'm talking about player scores.

 

[tassietiger]

350 and beyond is a freak thing, but it does happen.

Ive reached 400+ twice, that's in about 20 years of tests playing for Australia and 20 years of FC playing with Hampshire, I don't really go for the big scores that often though. I only go for em when I've already wrapped up the series or the championship

ive scored 400 twice with one player in my Lancs game(icc 2001) he did it both time for england. (while i was coaching) somerset got a screeny of one of his innings somewhere, was truelly awesome.

 

[bryce]

i've made 400+ with an individual at least 15 times in test matches on icc2002, i probaly bat a bit less aggressive than most people though, here's how i do it...

Start of a batsman's innings
Openers in first innings: 1 agg
Every other time: 2 agg

Batsman with 3 settle bars
2 agg

Batsman who is fully settled
3 agg


i only ever use these tactics in 5 day games(test matches) and the only exceptions i make to these rules are when i need quick runs or when a batsman is batting with an un-accomplished batsman, i also do not use these rules for bowlers who i just leave on 2 agg all the time - unless the bowler is partnered by a rabbit

Yep, I sure have mate. P Adam was his name I think, 485 runs, superb innings.

 

[Shahid Afridi]

i could of easily got a higher score, but had to declare in order to win the game

Just how much editing was involved with that one, then?

 

[Shahid Afridi]

i dident edit nothing, i just used that database sum1 made with all national teams in 1 league

 

[chooka_nick]

Yeah I got that one too, a good game, trying to win with Canada is great fun...

 

[Blaze]

Wow Bryce you are really defensive.

I get my batsmen on to 3 bars of agression as soon as I can. I wait until they make about 15 and then let the runs flow. I try and get the accendency in a match as soon as I can by scoring 400+ on the first day or erasing the oppenents score and turning round the defecit into a lead as quickly as I can

 

[tassietiger]

Let the batsman play about 5 or 10 overs, and then put him up to 3 or 4 aggression, depending what sort of mood i'm in, and when he's been batting for ages, stick him up to 5 or 6. Only when I'm desperate for quick runs and nearing declaration would I go 7 or 8.
