Guess the bowling attack is the difference.

Amazed I got Anderson, Bond and Clark as a frontline attack. Would be absolutely deadly IRL.

He still hasn't even simmed the FWC, you expect him to go over to another thread and read?

The difference is the bowling attack but in reality, Spark's lot would be half dead by mid-season.
Bond wouldn't last more than 3 games. (played < 20 tests in his entire career)
I reckon teh number of games a player plays each year should also be a factor in their performance in long competitions.
I hope prince reads this so that he can rectify his sim for next season.

Probably is but Bond is still a gun, gun bowler. Would expect him to be the same here.

Besides I have LeeNoffke as a backup.

Bond will tear up. Over at CPL I have Bond, Taylor, Copeland and Mason at full strength and they're immense.

You're going to need good bowling depth though.

But we are not using the same injury sim here ,so Bond could last the whole season too ,as the injuries will be random.

Any chance of using the same injury sim or any other more realistic injury sim?

Would be kind of strange to have a Steyn injured for a long period while bond plays every game.

No! :ph34r:

I'll use it if he recommends it (and if he can get it to work on my computer, which if it's custom-made software, is certainly not a given) How big are the CPL squads?

Makes it interesting with realistic more injury prone players and retired ones getting more injuries.Though others get them too.

Hmmm, would probably have to tone it down then. From what I can see players are getting injured left right and centre and most people will probably be fielding only a few extra bowlers, an extra batsman or two and a backup keeper. Don't really want to extend the draft either.

I could make the injuries less frequent for here if you wanted.

The only thing is, you'd have to enter the names in exactly the same format they are in the files for that simulator or it wouldn't work. For example, if you entered Michael Hussey instead of Mike Hussey; errors galore. It'd be very easy to **** that up from your position. As such I don't think it'd be a great idea.
