The Batting confidence meter displays how set a batsman is once he is at the crease. The more settled he is, the better chance he has of timing the ball sweetly and less chance of edging one to the slips or popping up a catch.
Double the amount of pre-set fielding options of previous versions.
Training Nets mode, now with the option to set the line and length you wish the CPU to bowl at you in order to master your batting strokes or improve your timing.

Couldn't see this mentioned anywhere on the forums; apologies if it has been already. Some interesting stuff I haven't heard mentioned elsewhere.
