    I started on day 1, light cracks which aren’t visible. Currently on day 2 and no sign of any change at all

    The pitch deteriorating doesn’t happen in custom stadiums, is that correct?

    I had one outfield catch in that inns where it triggered properly, 1 outfield where it didn’t and 2 keeper catches where it didn’t It seems much rarer now for it to trigger than not

    They’ve killed most of the mini game trigger sadly, 99% of catches go auto now anyway

    This aside the gameplay I’m having is excellent. (A slight error in my point above, the players were 1 conservative and 1 precise). I’m playing the 99/2000 England tour of South Africa, Kirsten (conservative) goes aerial twice in first over and holes out. No aerial from Gibbs (aggressive)...

    Mentalities are messed up. Bowling first morning of the test, conservative batsman hits 2nd ball aerial for 4 over mid off. 4th ball holes out to deep backward square. 15 more overs, batsmen are aggressive or balanced mentalities, no aerial shots. Get another wicket and another conservative...

    does it deteriorate during play, or just update as you move from one day to the next?

    I think things seem in a decent state now, bouncer wides are a bit of a bugbear

    Took a wicket with the first ball of the test match today, don’t think that’s ever happened before. Nice edge and catch at slip, pretty cool. Annoying they deleted the catch mini-game though.

    Like my difficulty? I think hard for batting, hardest for bowling but I can’t remember, will check. In terms of AI skilling i skill the players myself, best players come out high 80s

    I think this was the case in c19 and c22 tbh. I do everything on default in terms of physics

    Got some vid / screenshots but not time to put them together! It’s 2-1 to me at the moment, though 3rd test was sadly ruined by the run out bug so a bit of a cheap victory. Got destroyed in 1st test, narrow win in 2nd. As in real life, Lamby has been a hero vs the pace attack with 2 tons! King...

    It’s an interesting fact that the “different time, different place” Ross refers to is the time and place before they’d actually released any product we could judge them on…

    yeah, to be fair if i was playing a tour to India I might think differently. I'm playing a test match against West Indies 1988 and they've only 2 part-time spinners so I haven't faced it a lot. I basically left anything wide enough and if it was closer i had to play a shot, even if i was happy...
