Stick cricket and stick tennis

Who else is all over these FINE smart phone games?

Stick cricket - has anyone managed to get three cricket balls yet? I've top scored with 133 and still can't get the fabled 3rd ball.

Stick tennis - equally great game, with Chris Cross-Court proving too good for me - I've managed 5-7 and 4-6 and only won a single game against the serve.

Anyone got any thoughts on these games?

Managed to get 150 from 5 overs in Stick Cricket so a proud holder of the fabled 3 cricket balls.

Re Stick Tennis, I hope you mean Willy Beacher! Chris Cross-Court was on the wrong end of a 6-0 drubbing from me. Beat Willy Beacher 7-6 the other day after MONTHS of trying. Manage to break him with not too much difficulty funnily enough, but the bastard keeps breaking back. Good tip - when he comes to the net (usually when on serve) keep doing drop shots. Doesn't always work but gives you half a chance.

The problem I have with Stick Cricket is it's impossible to react to the line of the fastest bowlers. So I assume it's pitched into the body / on line of stumps, thus giving dot balls to those outside off stump. Anything else leads to wickets :(

Any advice?

Btw - my best fom 5 overs is 91 and I just can't beat Pakistan (for the reason mentioned above)

Love the tennis. Beaten all those in practice, but can't quite beat Beacher 6-0. Stuck on 6-1.

The daily challenges are great. I think my highest position is 298th. Edit: 354th Seles vs Kuerten

Haven't paid for the game yet, so can't progress any further on the tournaments and world domination.
