I'm not sure. AI Probably prioritizes best bowlers in most situations. Either way shouldn't make a huge difference.

Centuries for both Ben Duckett and Mark Butcher see their team put up yet another 400+ score. But Liam Plunkett shined for TIll Valhalla XI, as he took a fifer on a tiring day.
CerealKiller XI have set up a massive Target of 581 runs.

Spoiler: 4th Innings Scorecard

4th Innings Scorecard




No one would have given Till Valhalla XI a chance to chase 581 in a Test match. But they were close. After having over 250+ runs of 2nd wicket partnership, Haseeb Hameed and Liam Livingstone were cruising. Both had scored a hundred. But it was going to be a very difficult chase. Thus Till Valhalla XI fell short by just 62 runs!

They forgot to change the batting pitch to bowling pitch in 4th innings.
