So far, I reckon the top 3 batsmen are Trott, Amla and Clarke, whilst bowlers are Steyn, Anderson and Ajmal. This is only based on a day of playing of course!
After the first year of my Somerset game, April 2014 (patch 13.02):
Test rankings:
Top 5 ranked batsmen:
1) Trott 2) Cook 3) Clarke 4) Kohli 5) Y Khan.
Top 5 ranked bowlers:
1) Broad 2) Ashwin 3) Ajmal 4) Swann 5) Anderson
All of these players are quality in real life so it seems realistic. The players ranked in the next 5 seem to be changing a lot, so I won't post them until after another season maybe. All but one of the players above (Kohli) are in the current top 10 in the world.
Dhawan is a quality batter in Test and ODI's aswell from what i've seen!
@Graham_5000...... How's Broad's recent stats in your game? He was shocking in mine so i dropped him haha
Broad is amazing in my game... By 2017 Broad's test average is 27.3 which is amazing seeing as he has had to get it down from about 31. I am not controlling England mind you.
I have played 7 seasons so far with yorkshire. I think Garry Ballance is a superb player.Probably the best in the team and online as well.He averages 55 in 60 online games. James Harris , Marcus Christtie, are the best bowlers.
ICC are usually good at predicting potential international players. From what I've seen of him (stats wise and from watching visually), Ballance seems like he'll go on to play for England irl eventually and do very well for them so I'm glad Ballance has been made so good in game.
clarke was dominant in my australia save, pattinson averages 24 and samuel rapheal is averaging 50 with the bat.
In my glamorgan save I've found scott borthwick is really good, meaker is my leading wicket taker every year in the low 20's too. In terms of overall for the whole game I'd say amla and cook are tops, bowling I've found philander is probably rated too high as he seems to average very low or even under 20 in tests in the few saves I've played.

Philander averages 17 in tests in real life at the moment.. I have also been waiting for the moment his average starts to rise but it hasn't happened yet! I think Morkel and Steyn at the other end helps him. I know he isn't doing well for Kent atm but looking at the score cards it looks like a batting paradise across England!
As hard as people try to explain away his success, it is hard to argue with 89 wickets at 17.13 a piece at a strike rate of 36.8 in 16 tests. He was the fastest to 50 wickets and could be the fastest to 100.
