this may just be me, but it seems that, when playing as bowler in career mode, you get streaks of mainly getting people out in a certain way. for example, i had a load of wickets where i bowled the batsmen (always the most satisfying), and then no bowleds for ages, just outfield catches, now i've had a few c&b's having not had one in hours of game time, and not bowled anyone out in what seems like years.

anyone else noticed this? I am playing as a left-arm finger spinner, if that makes a difference.
 
that's randomisation for you - you'll always get streaks. (note to roulette enthusiasts - red is not "due" just because the last 3 have been black...)
 
since posting this i have now had 4 c&b's in a row!
Its also maybe an idea to put your infielders back as this opens up the field for ai and reduces the amount of chip shot catches.....
 
I don't mind the variety of dismissals, it tends to vary by how the wicket is in my experience, but I would say I'd like to see a little less of the batsmen stepping 3 feet outside off and getting bowled round their legs. I think 7/10 bowled wickets are in this manner for me, with another 2 usually being inside edges. Would like to see more batsmen playing inside the moving ball or even just being super late and missing it completely (particularly tail-enders).
 
I'm playing casual matches and have played 6 ODIs lately pretty much all the dismissals have been caught at point, cover, square leg, with a few caught behind but if I put difficulty up to legend they dry up have had no bowled or LBW I find these dismissals to be very rare
