ODI's are a joke.

I'm sorry but the run rates are just contantly too high.

I'm playing as Australia and yes while we aren't anywhere near the best in the world, the bowlers don't consistently go for 12+ an over like mine are currently.

South Africa just chased down 275 in 35 overs, on a seamers pitch. Johnson went at 9.14 an over and Watson at 11. This simply does not happen. My best bowler by run rate was Harris at 6.14.

Can't say I've experienced such an issue. Only issue I've found is that spinners are a bit too difficult to score off.

I've not found it too hard to score off spinners, so I really like the one-day games in this version. My only gripe is that often when my team or the opponents team make a really high score, when chasing there is a massive collapse and victory by 200-odd runs. This happens too often for my liking.

[CyberCricketer]

I find that when I'm bowling my spinners leak runs far more than my pacemen, which is the direct opposite of what generally happens in real life.

[Themer]

Disagree completely. Seemsto be a very good balance for ODIs. Had a few scores on battingwickets near and over 300, bit for bowler and batsmen I've had scores of 230-260 and on bowlers wickets with overheads 190-240.

Seems about right this version, on previous versions it was rare to score near 300 so I'm pretty pleased.

[Dutz]

Maybe a freak one off because I havent experienced such things!

[Isura]

Realistic scores is what ICC does best IMO.

It's happened in every ODI bar one so far. Not the chase down but bowlers going for 11, 12, 13 etc consistently.

Default field settings? What are your bowler settings?

[Alrounder80]

Every match at least one or two bowlers from my attack get ripped apart for lik 9 or 10 runs an over. When I bring in a part timer such as dave hussey he gets slogged for 16 runs in his first over. VERY annoying when this happens.

Opponent batsman must be well settled and of high quality.

Yeah just running the defaults on both. I never set attacking fields in ODI's.

Somtimes when match is on point you have to use ball by ball highlight

I've had almost the complete opposite happen to me, i can never seem to get over about 215-220, maybe thats cause im playing as NZ i dont know..

You are not allowing your batsman to settle down and playing far aggressive too early.
