I'm going to start a new save with first class matches only, any recommendations on what line up I should run? Thinking something like:
1. Warner
2. Renshaw
3. Uzzie
4. Smith
5. Handscomb
6. Burns (he's always a gun for me, same with anyone else?)
7. ?
8. Starc
9. ?
10. Hazelwood
11. Cummins
Lyon is always putrid for me. Would also like some more overs in the top 6 but can never seem to find a gun allrounder.
Test team if you're just starting in 2016
Warner
S Marsh
Khawaja
Smith
Maxwell
Cartwright
Wade
Starc
Cummins
Hazlewood
Bird
Shaun Marsh plays like a beast for about 3 years. Gets his average up just below 50.
My latest T20I side is as follows:Burns
Warner
S. Marsh
Smith
Voges
Khawaja
Nevill
Starc
O'Keefe/Siddle
Hazelwood
Lyon
Always a winning combo to start with for me.
Push one of the batsmen out for ODIs/T20Is (usually Burns or Khawaja), and you're set there too.
Again, it's important not to let real-life results and biases colour your judgement on players too much.
ODIs and T20Is can be a mixed bag, but Lyon is always a prolific wicket-taker for me in Tests. I tend to sim/skip most of the games though (rather than playing ball-by-ball or over-by-over), which could be the difference.

Its bullshit.**** this unrealistic s**t sometimes. Just had 350 chased down in two sessions.
Yeah, forgot about Voges. He's a gun for about 2 years. I wonder if they edited him a couple weeks ago.Burns

It was with 1 bar green on each too. I make a policy of only declaring 500 ahead or 350 with 2 sessions which is no longer safeIts bullshit.
If you give them 400-450 to chase with 3 or 4 sessions in a test.. They'll get there 8 times outta 10
Aus system has all of the youth development, salary management, etc as of the 2015 version. 2016 version has NZ & SA domestic as well, not sure about depth though as don't personally have 16.ICC, yes!
Used to play this back in the day as it was one of the few games my computer could actually run... Think it must have been ICC 2001.
Anyway over the Christmas/NY break, I saw that it's available on mobile! I thought, awesome this will be such a good time filler for the holidays!
I ended up buying 2014 cos I'm cheap and figured they're all pretty much the same anyway. I had about 7 weeks of annual leave over Summer with a lot of travel so I had heaps of time to play it. Now I'm now into season 2028, playing with Derbyshire as I used to play with them back in the day. They're probably the shittest side but it's fun to try to get them up the ranks. It's been more of a struggle in this version though... Seems OD and T20 games are really hard to to win whereas they used to be quite easy even if your FC team was rubbish. You used to be able to win the pyjama stuff easily to get more money to get better players and eventually win in FC. 2014 seems the other way around which is making it a lot harder to progress. I've been yo-yoing between Div 1 and 2. There's not many real life players left anymore, think I saw Ben Stokes in one of the teams. Maybe Ballance as well, but it's pretty much all generated players now. Early on I managed to draft 3 gun bats through the youth system that have been rocks in my middle order for about 10 seasons now. Between them they have about 35,000 FC runs. The pick of them is coming up to 50 FC tons. I tried playing with Victoria initially but the Aussie system is hugely lacking compared to the County game. So much depth playing the English domestic career with the youth development, salary management, etc.
Anyway, good times.
