Ok so Xbox Series X user here and yep still waiting for any kind of patch and academy not available.
Issues I have come across in the past couple of days
I still think the potential is there that this game will be the best of any cricket game but its crazy to think this was originally going to release on the 25th, got delayed by a week and even now almost a week later there has been no patch or improvement for xbox making the game pretty much unplayable. The fact the academy has been down is crazy also, the game should never have been released like it is now and at worst case they should have released the academy tools a couple of months ago when they announced the game.
I will still enjoy this game when its patched and with improvements on 19 it will be the best cricket game but the fact it comes out as a barebones game with limited licensed teams ( 2 of which have very poor likeness) and the fact that xbox users in particular can not even enjoy a single 10 over match almost a week on from release is crazy.
There have been some positive things like some skied shots that have gone to different parts like keeper, short third man, between the ring and boundary fence, some really impressive shots and snick offs but its hard to get past not being able to play the game as it should be when you pick up off shelves.

- Forward defence is gone
- Academy not working
- Create a player - shoe colour won't change
- Changed line ups but default line up appeared
- Won the toss and bowled. Bowled 2 overs of a 20/20 game and all of a sudden I was batting for the start of the 3rd over.
- Fielders slide over the rope every time on the boundry and end up in crowd.
- Hit a ball to deep fielder who fields it well inside rope, gets called a 4
- Got caught at point on the ring and it was called a 6
- Clean bowled the AI with two stumps out of ground no appeal , not out
- Game crashes during game
