Batting

Do not attempt to hit the ball for six when its right into your foot (Yorker). Instead, play aggressive shot for sweep. It works quite often.

For Slogging, hit the ball just before it lands on the ground and you will find that it will reach the fence.

Try to build your confidence meter before attempting any big shots.

When the CPU assigns defensive field, try to defend the deliveries in the offside more often to clinch a single run. Remember try to clinch the single quickly or you will be run out.

You will find medium fast bowlers more difficult to handle than the faster ones. Do not hit slog shots. You will succeed one or two times then will definitely get out.

Bowling

Bowling spinners in limited overs games is a big mistake. The CPU finds it very easy to hit you for six often.

Other delivery to baffle the batsman by starting with Off Cutter and Bowl Leg Cutter at the last minute.

Pitch the bowl slightly outside the off stump, just towards the crease line. Then, start with in swinger and when it is ready to pitch, change it to out swinger. It will get you a lot of wickets in the slip regions and backward point region.

Set the field where you have fielder in closing catching position and bowl according to the field set. Remember the outside the off stump and out swinger is your delivery.

Try to fill your lineup with fast bowlers or medium fast bowlers and avoid spinner.
