I must say that the 25+ matches that I have played in my current competition and batting for both teams have improved my batting 10 fold. Maybe I will give veteran a go for a few matches. I have actually just come to terms with batting well on pro level, but I am currently scoring tons of 50s and basically a 100 in every match. I just don't want my tournament to fall flat because I changed the level. But then on the other hand to score 370 every second match isn't realistic. It is still very tough to chase scores of 300+, because I fold badly under scoreboard pressure.
So last night I started a 50 over match on veteran. I found it really challenging and when I finished it was 100/9. I had a 44 run opening stand, but then when their 3 spinners came into the attack it was just lbw and bowleds. It felt really realistic though and wasn't easy to score runs. I would definitely play veteran when I play test matches, because veteran level gives you the idea of really having to work hard for your runs.
True. The only thing that bothers me is the fact that you don't ever feel fluent in an innings. It will really be quite hard to bat through 50 overs if you want to go at 5 or 6 per over. I can definitely see it working in Test matches when you can afford to go at 3 per over. I also don't know if it's just me, but it seemed the AI bowl a lot more to their fields.
Are you using any old save? Delete old saves and see if you're still getting it.
