I don't mind little ones, it's just the blinding obvious ones.
Like in the original ICC09 release, would it of been that hard to just look at a spreadsheet of the best batsmen, and see Hughes was first and bump him down a bit?

Well New Zealand ratings are for the most part accurate, though I feel Shane Bond, Daniel Vettori and Kyle Mills need bowling boosts. Tim Southee possibly as well, and a batting one, but that could be taken as bias. Oh and Grant Elliott needs a batting boost. And Nathan McCullum a bowling one. Kieran Noema-Barnett needs an overall boost. But apart from that... 
NZ ratings are ok

Corey Anderson is rated way, way too low IMO, as is Nick Beard. Going by this game Anderson's one of the worst bowlers in New Zealand
Although being so young maybe he has a better chance of improvement throughout the game?A few guys seem to be very overrated also, Mark Gillespie, Anaru Kitchen, Warren McSkimming, Jeet Raval (slightly) and Sam Wells (Very overrated).

I didn't include all the NZ players, only the ones who interest me, so there are some worse ones. Yes I agree that a few players are overrated, mostly batsmen, but that could have been done to make us a bit more fair :laugh
I think in general, the batsmen are overrated (apart from Taylor and Elliott who are underrated), and the bowlers underrated.

Seeing as this is a sort of "help with ICC 2010 thread" I was wondering how much certain players will improve during the game? I'm currently playing as New Zealand and have played for about 12 months now and during this time I have seen a tiny amount of improvement in Tim Southee's bowling (I'm just using him as an example for this). If I keep working on his bowling with the technique option how much would I expect him to improve by when he's 25-26? Does improvement happen even without telling you?

Yea I think improvement happens naturally, and then there is extra on assigning technique training to the players. Even if it doesn't tell you I think improvement will still happen. Personally I've never had the game tell me that a player has improved lol
Oh, what I mean by the game telling you such and such has improved is when after a game for example it will come up with something like "Tim Southee has improved his accuracy" I was just wondering if players still actually improved over time without those sorts of things having to happen.
I'm just going by the ratings that Chewie gave us.
Batting:
Guptill, Elliot and Styris all look to be way underrated.
Raval, Kitchen and Wells all look to be slightly overrated.
Bowling:
Vettori, Mills, Nicol, Williamson, Southee and Martin all look to be way underrated.
