Hi,
I'm a long time fan of ICC games, owning most since the Australian version that came out in the mid-late 90's.
I bought ICC2010 as soon as it came out, and have played several seasons of County & Australian leagues.
I am however finding it really frustrating in trying to bowl sides out regularly.
I find myself often in the situation where I'm playing a much weaker side, have them seemingly on the ropes, with a very healthy first inning lead, yet with alarming regularity these sides seem to become reinvigorated in their second innings and make large scores.
Now if this was an irregular occurrence I would simply say 'Well played Sir' and continue on without a gripe and try and figure out what I'd done wrong.
However this happens almost every game no matter who the opponent and no matter how in form either I or they are.
I am increasingly becoming worried that there is some kind of AI working in the background that is thwarting me, and therefore no matter what tactics I try this is always going to occur.
Can anyone confirm or refute that there is something hard wired into the code that is doing this?
I would be terribly dismayed if it is the case, as it totally removes or at the very least severely limits the fun of the game.
I don't seem to recall having this problem in older versions of the game. Sure there were other problems like left arm orthodox spinners being superhuman, but nothing like this.
