I think this is the worst selection Iv seen the Aussies make. Luke Towers (who hardly gets selected for a state team) in the test team in 2017. First innings of the ashes and makes 90. Strike rate of 76

There are some weird ones.

#wadoesitbetter. Good ol Lukey Towers.
 
Has there been a new update in the last few days?

I'm finding it impossible to bowl teams out now. I got whitewashed by NZ and lost to the WI at home, but beat England and the WI away fairly easily prior to those series.
I can't get wickets. Only player who does for me is Lyon, all my pace bowlers are crap.

This is pretty normal after awhile in a career on every ICC ive played in the last 8 or so years.

I have some theories, but no idea on how to get the pacers working well consistently. If they are not on 5 star form its always a battle.

I've had more success recently after using the fields provided here by kishorea. http://forum.childishdownloads.co.uk/showthread.php?18530-Custom-Field-Placements
 
I'm going to do a career with the West Indies. But with a little twist. I'll pick the 18 best test squad. And "retire" them. Kinda like a few years back with the pay disputes. I'll sim the first season to see what happens. Then after that I'll start playing

Edit: before the first test the game pre select an 18 so I just chose them. Players who will not represent the West Indies from now
K Braithwaite, C Gayle, S Chanderpaul, D Bravo, K Edwards, L Simmons, D Ramdin, N Deonarine, M Samuels, J Holder, S Narine, V Permaul, K Roach, S Cottrell, S Shillingford, J Taylor! S Gabriel and K Peters.

Also players who have retried from test such as Sammy and Dwayne Bravo won't be picked for ODI or T20

Have played England went down 3-0. 2 loses by an innings and about 150+ runs each time. The other was a 10 wicket lose. Lost to Australia 2-0 both by an innings and a lot. (Haven't bowled a team out yet) then played Zimbabwe we. Lost 1-0. Drew the second and should of won. Andre Russel the captain took 8-68 In the first innings. I'm not sure how to post photos?

A Barath, J Blackwood, L Johnson, K Lesporis, Dwayne Smith, A Fudadin, R Hinds, A Russell, S Dowrich, C Brathwaite, K Powell, J Charles, M Mathew, R Sarwan, J Warrican, M Cummins and R Rampaul.

There's been a couple of shining lights. Barath 49 with the bat. Brathwaite 31 with the ball and Russell 33 with the ball.

Marlon Richards and Delorn Johnson are worth a go if you're looking for fast bowlers as well.
 
March 2017, just played a reasonable Test innings on a tough batting wicket:

And the bowling figures:

Just had Ussie score 216* in an OD game on a minefield (well, 2 red bars for both spin and bounce which is as close to a minefield as you can get in an OD game). Made 3/390, Stoinis 85 off 87, Wade 57* off 36

Followed up with a 129 in the final (both MOTM), as well as making 3/402 with Burns 127* and Stoinis 98.
 
I'm shattered.

Quite possibly playing one of my best games this year and the game froze. At least I have screenshot proof. :)

EDIT: I'll put the screenshots up later since the file won't bl**dy upload. What happened was a Shield game between Vics and NSW. I was the Vics. We declared just 4 wickets down at just under 600 with Rob Quiney 272*. All batsman bar Rogers knocked fifties (Handscomb didn't either but he was not out). So went into bowl and had them 5 wickets down with them still needing 275.

It felt like watching the Aussie summer all over tbh, bowling on roads.
