Issue (one line description): Incorrect partnership statistics
Bug description (detail): My openers made a partnership of 103 yet when I go the the partnership stat screen in game it states the partnership was only 93. The game is only adding the scores of the two batsmen on this particular page and NOT including the extras. Annoying as statistics are everything in the cricket and the partnership menu is a great way to quickly track partnerships and contributions and it essentially is now defunct.

I move them to mid on and mid off and put more specialised fielder there and apply all when back to bowl I go into view the field from bowlers perspective and number 10 and 11 are back in slips you cannot put what certain fielder where you want can you please fix

No point reporting bugs that break the game - it has been reported numerous times that field settings don't stick so it seems we are just wasting our time.

Issue (one line description): Selected for Test matches when status says "fair way off"
Bug description (detail): I am randomly selected for test matches for Australia when my selection status for playing Test cricket is "fair way off". This is obviously not supposed to happen. I am finding many issues in career mode, like not being in the playing XI for no reason, which I will say later.

Bug description (detail): Pretty much every delivery bowled by a spinner, particularly if you are standing as wide as possible, is a no-ball because they walk across from the side of the widest line of the crease.

Issue: Ball passes through the bat way too often
Bug description: Post patch 4 the ball passes through the bat quite often, especially against the spinners. The batting feedback shows the footwork, timing and shot choice is either 'Good' or 'Ideal' but the ball passes right through the bat. I think this is caused due to creating bat-pad chances. I've seen this phenomenon happens quite often every match and even though I'm dismissed a couple of times a match while the ball simply passes through the bat, there are plenty of times the ball evades the fielder or lands safely but the enhanced frequency of the bug makes batting random as you know that an edge/bat pad is round the corner and it will happen even if it's a well timed shot. See the video below for more info as this is happening to me quite often since Patch 4 resulting in bat-pads or an edge. Other times the ball passes through the bat, hits the pad and lobs up as a bat-pad chance and in this case it's an "edge".

In the enclosed video I played a cover drive against the spinner and as you can see the ball passes through the middle of the bat and is treated as an edge despite the batting feedback system saying the footwork, timing and shot choice were 'Good' or 'Ideal'. Essentially I played a good to perfect cover drive only to see the ball pass through the middle of the bat to be "caught" behind. IMO it would be better to roll back the bat-pads altogether as they have made the batting seem random.


Edit:

Here's another short clip. Unfortunately my PS4 crashed while trying to capture longer version of the dismissal (I selected the 'Send Report' option after the crash) and this 3 second clip was the only video saved for the dismissal. Thankfully it shows the ball passing right through the bat and yet again the batting feedback was Footwork 'Good', Timing 'Good' and Shot Choice 'Ideal', and the result was the ball passing right through the bat for a caught behind dismissal.

Ground: SCG
Over Count: Don't remember
Issue (one line description): Bemused fielders, a true Ashes Cricket 2013 moment.
Bug description (detail): Played a glance sort of shot to backward square leg. Fielder from a shortish fine leg turns to give chase and, as the ball nears the rope, the fielder turns around and starts running away from the boundary. At which point, the mid-wicket fielder is nearing the ball. Then the first fielder turns around again and runs toward the ball, which has by now come to a halt inches inside the rope.

Now the above behaviour is truly bizarre, but what happens next is even better. The fielders come to a halt 2-3 metres either side of the ball, and just stare at each other. I completed 17 runs before it was obvious that the players were more interested in gazing lovingly in each others' eyes than picking up the ball and tossing it back to the keeper, so I had to restart it. While I've had a few WTF moments, this is the first one so far in which the game has behaved like a misbegotten cluckfuster.

Bug description (detail): Game starts at 10:30am. First session runs until 1:10. Lunch. Second session runs from 1:50 to 4:10. Tea. Final session runs until 6:30.
Very long day. Would help if the lunch and tea breaks weren't added on to the previous session, thus doubling them up.

Also, 100 overs a day scheduled for Shield games? I think not (playing conditions say 96).

Issue (one line description): Career calendar can be bizarre.
Bug description (detail): Start of the second domestic season. Scheduled are three 50 over games followed by the first 4-day game of the season. Am offered the one-day captaincy (decline), and the 4-day captaincy (accept). After the third 50 over game, I advanced the schedule to the first 4-day game, and was asked to select the team. Which I did.

I would have expected at this point to have stated the game, but no, throw back to the menu, and advance (again) to a completely unscheduled 50-over game against WA in Perth. No idea what's going on here.

Not sure if this is a bug/glitch in the game or just my bad luck. I was 214 for 9 after recovering somewhat from 136 for 6. Only 4 overs left in the day and I was comfortably in the crease setting myself to remain until the next days play. I played a straight drive from a medium fast right arm delivery and it when to long on. I decided not to risk a single and so did not initiate a run. The next thing I know the bowlers and fielders are celebrating. I was then bemused to see that the batsman at the non- strikers end had "decided" to wander up the pitch out of his crease and then was run out! I was incandescent with rage! Ha ha. I know if that is all I have to worry about in this world then it's going alright but just wondered if anyone else had experienced this?
Thanks
