What this guide is (and isn’t)

This is an entertainment-only practice guide. It is not advice for real-money play or wagering.

Three pitch signals you can spot early

Notice grass cover, dryness/cracks, and initial seam movement. Translate these into pace, bounce, and turn ratings inside your practice module.

Practical drill

Run 10 mock overs: 5 conservative, 5 aggressive. Compare dismissals and dot-ball pressure. Save your XI and repeat with one bowler swapped.


Practice steps inside AYACHI

  1. Open Matches and pick a module.
  2. Create a practice XI in Team Builder (login required).
  3. Save your XI and compare in My Matches.

Practice checklist

  • Objective: decide your practice XI before you open Team Builder.
  • Constraints: credit cap and role limits are practice rules (not money).
  • Captaincy: choose C/VC to test leadership scenarios.
  • Review: save the XI and compare different builds in My Matches.
