Congrats [MENTION=70195]AFM[/MENTION] , well played #MisbahUnited.

Kings played well but couple of close decisions went against them and a missed run out eventually costed them the match.

 

[Thunderbolt14]

Someone explain to me how pitch attributes work. Because our pacers are doing better on spinning pitches than on High/High/High/Low and our spinners are doing better on our supposed “pacer paradise”

Should have played Arshad Iqbal

I guess no one knows. What we have witnessed is somehow sim tends to balance most of the things in the end.

 

[TrentDevil]

Though, I think [MENTION=152120]TrentDevil[/MENTION] is flying too high and thinking he's some kind of big shot. Will need to be schooled soon and is on my radar."

17 from 13 balls, killing the game, coming to bat at a time when it was anybody's game and most importantly I am a bowler.

I hope you now know and have no doubts about who's the big shot.

Because you are Munaf Patel of pace bowling, so need some dusty and dead pitches in order to threaten the batsmen.

So basically low skilled works better because they are less aggressive

Correction coming to bat when [MENTION=151892]Thunderbolt14[/MENTION] was bowling and that’s every batsman’s dream )

 

[last_knight]

Can't decipher this. Sometimes it works. For bowling, Balance and variety (even if you have to compromise on skills) is more successful than higher skills with lesser balance and variety.

Might be wrong but that's what I have observed.
