Yeah, the pitch is a bit scary. But I'd expect better, Rik...

Oh, here's a screenshot.

Vadeyaraj ended the series with 17 wickets @ 5.06

LOL that's terrible to say the least!!!

 

[Neil Pickup]

If it's any consolation, you murdered me in the four-dayers afterwards.

My suspicions are confirmed, we're going to stink in the 4-day game, stink badly.

You mean me?

I have lost one 4D game against you in my sims using your pitch in 40 attempts...

Well I would expect you to pick a side that even comes close to my best...not picking Andy Petal leaves me without a keeper and Burns at 7 is just criminal!

Try it with this:

M Burns
A Petal (WK)
T Petal
G Lambert
G Rennie
D Viljoen
C Evans
B Rogers
E Smith
W Wisneski
R Cunningham

I suspect the result will be slightly different

I wouldn't worry to much Rik, each sim acts very differently to each other for some weird reason, considering the game is stats based it should be the same, but I think my one was favouring the batters compared to GB's when I took over mid-season. Plus VC4 has these odd results all the time, I simed a game in which Hamps scored 5 and bowled Glamorgan all out for 2 - Now how lilkly is that?

I lost 2-8 on my sims. Probably team selection

It was a computer auto-team.

If we win a single 4D game all year I'll be shocked.
