I've started playing again now and am completely immersed in my own little Ashes induced bubble (even though I thought I wouldn't play much, patch or no patch, because the Ashes are over).
Offline has become so much more playable and enjoyable and am enjoying playing ODI's at them moment. I have created my own little Champions Trophy Tournament. Can't do that in the game obvilously but a little bit of work in excel does the trick nicely!
That's a good idea. Perhaps someone can design a template - an excel file like yours adapted to a web page here - with all the relevant details? All you have to do is complete the matches separately in AC09 and fill out the points tables. Then perhaps the table itself automatically works out the points and net run rates (or whatever) when you click an "update" button. When you reach the quarter finals, begin the tournament in AC09 at those quarter finals.
This might be a way of extracting more out of the game via tournament modes until AC10 comes out.
Dutch, you're a smart bugger :banana2
Thanks for the compliment! I can see if I can post some screenies of what and how I am doing it and it might be useful for others! I use this as well to create tours etcetera so as I can have my own off-line statsfestival and it makes the shelflife of this wonderful piece of coding very longeable (new word of the day!)

Sorry, I'm a complete idiot when it comes to Excel; how did you do that?
Am not playing the game as much, hope once patch comes out i will get back into it, if anyone wants a match add me on 360
i hate the new controls, u cant use the mouse:doh
It's very simple at the moment. Just a way of recording the match results and fixtures and calculating the points. It's quite easy once you get into it. I am hoping to develop it further so that it could be used as a template for others to create their own tours and tournament fixtures and have much more recording and calculating of essential stats. I am using the excellent work done by Pasty as a foundation and adapting parts of it. I hope to spend some time on it this holiday (2 weeks free!!). If I feel it is worthy of uploading for others to use if they wish I will do so!
can i get a list of the fixes that are coming in the patch ?
thanks i saw it. i'm excited, although i would like if they work more on the online aspect.You certainly can: you'll find it on the first page of this thread:

Edit: My bad, that's just the betas. No-one knows what the fix list is for the full patch, as far as I'm aware.
