Shot Selection
When a new batsman is at the crease, you should not play hard shots like the on-drive or off-drive as there is a high chance you will get out. Wait until he has been in for a couple of overs before starting to play those sorts of shots. And don't try playing the sweep or reverse sweep until you have mastered all the other ones as they are the hardest strokes to play.

Teams
You should download all of the proper teams because it is way better playing with real teams than with players you have never heard of like A.Blanch.

Run Outs
The computer take to many risks while running, and as a result it is easy to run them out. If you are looking for more of a challenge, don't run them out.
