Okay, I didn't think I'd have the time to write a list, but here we go. No particular order of importance.
Please note that these are suggested feature improvements, not gameplay improvements. We'd all like the gameplay and AI to improve (from its really good initial foundation) but I won't go into that here.
1: Different bowling actions. BLIC 2005 had this. At least have half a dozen varieties. The current ones are beautiful but needs others
2: Ability to mod attributes in bulk. The academy has lots of inconsistency from team to team. Often players are rated well against each other within the team but not against other teams. Have a slider to scale all of the player attributes in the team together.
3: Career mode that isn't static. This has been covered many times
4: Feedback on timing and shot/foot selection for batsmen, at least on easier difficulties
5: Easier modability. Let users share custom images and jersey templates in the academy. Make it such that if I want to download say a 1999 WC team I can get the team, roster, adverts and all in one.
6: A much easier field editor in the academy. It's okay to use in game, but awful to use in the academy
7: Make it harder to bowl swing. In real life it is much easier to bowl a ball straight than it is to swing, yet in Bradman the two are the same. The only added difficulty with swing in Bradman is how to aim it but simply getting the ball to swing should be difficult. I am not sure how exactly, and don't want to over-complicated it. Spin works well because it takes skill to get the ball to spin a lot.
8: Way more stats and different graphical overlays
9: Save the BARS data such that it can still be seen when you reload a save. When playing a long game, you never do it all in one hit. And even if I do, I often save and reload just in case there is a crash or bug in the game. This kills the BARS stats.
10: And on this note, please add a manual save button.
