The older ICC games tended to be more h4x apparently.
Not that I noticed it much

A random delivery from Andrew Ellis just went, according to commentary & the umpire's signal, for 6 leg byes. This is despite the fact the batsman left it alone outside off, and the ball thudded into Matthew Sinclair's gloves.
Yes, I have 37-year-old Matthew Sinclair wicketkeeping in a FC tour game. |

I've never seen six legbyes but I have a screenshot of six byes which I'll try and find. This was in an earlier version so I can't remember exactly what happened in-game but it seems like its a rare bug in the game thats still yet to be solved.

I gave Steve O'Keefe a bowl on his test debut on a fourth day pitch hoping that he'd break a partnership. He took 9/34, which are the best figures I have ever seen on ICC personally. Steve Smith pulled 8/38 in a One Day International the other day, too. This artifical intelligence never ceases to surprise me

Played SL, they played 2 pace bowlers alongside 2 spinners and a spinning AR. I think there were 3 or 4 wickets to fall to pace in the series, generally with batsmen on high aggression against the 2nd new ball to take advantage of it not being spin. 9/34 for SoK is incredible though. What year are you in ATM? |

Playing through my 5 game ODI series against India, locked at 1-1 with one match remaining. They won the first by 7 wickets (despite Guptill and Raval putting on 173), then we followed it up with a 70-odd run win, as Raval tonned up.
Games three and four were both tied - can't say I've seen it before on ICC. The 3rd game was 8/268 plays 7/268, and the 4th was 8/254 plays 254. In the last one, Sam Wells made 122, and Todd Astle took 2 wickets in the 49th over with 1 run needed from 12, to bowl India out and secure the tie, but both were beaten for MOTM by Ajinka Rahane, who made 115. Utterly crazy series thus far. Also had an Indian regen pop up with the last name 'Lahore'. |
