Great fun, just got cleaned out for a hatrick though, the third one was a bouncer that I left, it hit the batsman in the head and he collapsed on the wickets. funny as.

With spinners, I try to leave it as late as I dare + a small fraction more
Seems to do the trick most of the time.

Its great fun but I also struggled with spinners. It is easy to belt the pace but it took me a while to work out that to play spin you have to hit late as Johhny the red said.

However now the friggin medium bowlers give me the sh*ts!!! I guess the timing is somewhere in the middle but I havent found it yet! I get to the final and am right on top until they change the bowling and then im up sh*t creek!!!

Have also been addicted, although now have controlled my cravings.

My best in the slog: 1/277 (Queensland)
My best individual score in the slog: 191 not out (Jimmy Maher)

If anyone doesn't know how to play as Aussie state teams or as 80s teams, let me know and I'll tell you.

To play as a state/county team - start a game, and when the window with the commentator pops up, click on his nose.

To play as a 1987 team, start a game, let a player get out for a duck, click on the yellow duck that appears on the screen.

NPK you seem a bit of an expert. Does it matter whether you are batting with Mcgrath or Ponting? Is it easier to bat with one or the other?

Nah, they're the same as far as I can tell..although I don't think I have ever lost 9 wickets in a game to give McGrath a bat!

Spinners, wait until last moment to hit
Medium pacers wait until ball hits pitch then hit!
