Too Late CC won by 19 runs
 
Man of the match: Javed Miandad

With the first set of ratings I was getting scoring rates ranging between 6-7 an over which although passable is far from satisfactory for a T20 contest, and teams rarely lost more than 5-6 wickets per innings which was a bit of a concern. So I decided to switch things up a bit once again, this time by using one of those 'magic' fixes I never told anyone about previously (call it a secret ingredient if you will ;)). Hint: look at the bowling styles.

Man of the match: CB Fry

This time I did get scoring rates above 8 an over, and more importantly teams were losing a fair number of wickets in keeping with the nature of the format which was something of a relief. So, I suppose these ratings are still passable if you want the bare minimum of realisticity but I would still call it unsatisfactory by my standards And just FYI, I did try rating players by my ODI manual (batters 42-66, bowlers 24-36) and also went to some extremes such as rating bowlers in single digits which only gave me results where some batting teams went through losing between 0-3 wickets or scored at barely 4.5-5 an over on most occasions, something you absolutely do not want in 25-over contests.

Personally, I wouldn't touch anything that is less than 40 overs via cricksim with a bargepole and I would recommend finding a simulator that wasn't made way back in 2001 when T20 was still 2 years from conception. But since you asked, I gave it a shot.

I can already say the problem here: PCCS don't work well, and no other options really exist from what I can tell
 
In my engine, the scoring probabilities vary from format to format between T20, List A and First Class, based on the same player rating.

This sim had a few bugs (incorrect max over limit for each team) but it gives a good idea of what to expect with T20 scoring at least.

I should say as well that there's limited randomness and magic numbers involved. I think people should get what they pay for in terms of how they see the player ratings.
