I'm not an expert on cricket or anything (barely even watch the sport), but I thought a lot of the players were all-rounders. Why is everyone becoming just pure batters or pure bowlers?

It’s a hand thing

 

[cats2rise]

I'll change to whatever

Bowler!

Can change to bowler

Done!

According to HARPSichord advice, I am now recommited back to a pure fast bowler.

Even have a celebration when I get a wicket.

Sorry for being a hassle in changing roles and then recommitting.

How lovely!

I’ll change

We thank you for your services.

Happy to do be whoever whatever you'd like me to do be.

Thank you but we've lost two bowling all-rounders tonight! You're a prized jewel as only one of two left.

Make me a left arm bowler like Bruce Reid or a batter.

Wonderful!

You are now a left handed batter like Bruce Reid!

 

[Pugsley]

Wonderful!

You are now a left handed batter like Bruce Reid!

I am a left hander

 

[DemurePrincess]

Oh wait! I’m left handed too. You want the ball to go where it needs to go right??

Then don’t make me right handed bc it will end up in the neighbours yard

 

[Cubs2Lions]

Wonderful!

You are now a left handed batter like Bruce Reid!

its how the sim works. biases scorign and wickets to the pure batters and bowlers. so it is just a prgoramming thing

 

[Raz]

I can be batsman I don't mind. I am usually an all rounder but if you need another batsman I will be that.

it jsut a sim LOL it doesnt care if you can bat / bowl it is a random number generator.

 

[akkaps]

Yeah what Raz said, whilst having a shit ton of all rounders is not an issue, and we can still play with 2 bats, 7 arounders and 2 bowlers; you'll see results that are gonna suck, especially if you go up against a team 6 bats, 1 ar and 4 bowlers.

The sim was built around 2000 and hence expect scores, strike rates and general gameplay to favour the style of cricket that was common back then.

 

[boncer34]

cats2rise can we get an index on major announcements please.

I know that, I just usually pick all rounder when I join leagues, but if the league needs more batsmen I am fine with that.

I've used the sim before it's a good sim, I'm just replying to the tag where I was asked if I'd change and I'll change if it's needed. I don't mind.
