Taking new ball?

[Ed Smith]

You don't actually get a new ball in tests at both ends. You must have to take it at both ends to stop the prompt. But aye the wear is bugged. Ball only shows significant wear in tests if you sim overs rather than bowl them.

So there is no ‘old ball’ simulation in this game? Or is it just a visual thing the ball not showing wear?

It shows wear in career, and that seems to be because you simulate to your player in that mode. It only doesn't look old, when you actually play all 80+ Overs with it.

Be awesome if they bother to fix it...

Hi guys, when it pops up in the bottom right corner saying new ball available, push up on the D Pad and it’s there! This has worked for me this morning! I took a picture and I will try and post it

Do people have 'In Game Notifications' enabled in settings? Though either way you should be able to press up on the D-Pad and press accept new ball even if you don't get the notification.

How do I do that to get the new ball available on my D-pad during game play
