Cricket Captain 2021 Database Feedback

[Wilted]

Peter Hatzoglou has signed with Perth Scorchers... As a 'Gades fans my heart is broken.

I guess all BBL squads will remain untouched for now until internationals are locked in and squads are finalised in the coming months.

Yes, I feel it's best to leave it until all squads are finalised or it could cause weird balance issues.

Najibullah Zadran (Afghanistan) is called Zadaran in game, his date of birth also differs from Cricinfo (28/2/93 vs 18/2/93 in game).

Bairstow gets automatically designated as WK ahead of Buttler for England, Buttler plays as WK in real life ahead of Bairstow even when both are playing in all formats now. Billings also gets chosen automatically when he is in the lineup, he has been wicketkeeper when Bairstow is in the team on occasion, but never been WK when Buttler has also played as far as I am aware.

Wilted I'll pass that on to Andy.

There is a small database update in the patch I've just put on Steam. This was mainly to fix an issue with missing stats from Australian 20 Over Super Subs.

There was also fixes for Ben Compton and Walallawita nationalities and removing an extra Lachlan Hearne from New South Wales.

I've not publicised it as I know I've not been able to go through the DB feedback yet, due to mobile releases. Should get time later this week.

I was under the impression that ODI tri-series format would be removed from the generated Australian international fixtures, this is from a Aus domestic save in the year 2024. I guess this is a database error?

After the 2007–08 season, the tri-series format was abandoned as a regular fixture. For three seasons (2008–09 until 2010–11), Australia still played ODIs against two touring teams, but these were staged as separate ODI series against a single opponent.

Also Gus Atkinson is medium fast surely not just medium?

Cricinfo shows medium. But I agree, he's pretty quick. Also, there is a problem in Cricinfo and Cricket Captain nomenclature. Cricinfo uses RF - RFM - RMF - RM whereas Cricket Captain uses RF - RMF - RFM - RM.

Also Gus Atkinson is medium fast surely not just medium?
Cameron steel has moved to Surrey not shown on the game currently ?

Both these changes are in for the next update.

Tanmay Mishra played ODIs for Kenya for a number of years.

That's understood. But he's in the Indian player list for selection. Probably considered as an Indian and not overseas player for IPL selection. Very odd.

[Hampshire]

Pace bowler John Turner in Hampshire's squad for the RLODC squad tomorrow and has been regularly featuring for the 2s.

Will be picked up as a debutant for next DB.

Some problem with player records. Tanmay Mishra has not played any ODI's

Tanmay Mishra played ODIs for Kenya for a number of years.

[Wilted]

Not sure how relevant this is but Indian players being available for T20 tournaments around the world is unrealistic as the BCCI doesn't allow them to play in any of them,

I'm 90% sure this is at least somewhat addressed. There were no Indian players available for the first or second season of the Aus T20 comp. No existing Indian players were available in the third season either but there were two regens available as internationals who had never played a match.

[ruby23]

Some problem with player records. Tanmay Mishra has not played any ODI's

He played for Tripura in 2019/20. Not played last season, suspect now retired. He played ODIs for Kenya, so he's now back as Kenyan as he's no longer playing in Indian domestic cricket.
