Just a few ideas that I have had.
1. The ability to select at the beginning for a batsman only with in the bowling selection the option to state that your player can't bowl. This just gives the user more freedom to spend money on creating a specialist batman without getting bogged down with low bowling skills. 2. The same as above, but for a bowler instead. 3. More messages giving the ability to level up the coach, batsman specialist ect instead of having to fire the them. Even having an option below the 'fire them' button would be nice.
Also, can we have a time estimate on when a iOS version will be out, I am quite keen to have it on my iPhone.

My suggestions:
- If possible, include other formats of the game. I.e. T20, Tests (First-class) - If a player is dropped from the national side, allow the player to continue with first class cricket only. I have found that player will retire, even if I have signed a club offer and overseas offer a couple of weeks prior to retiring. - Maybe add option for user to retire player. - Add some spice by comments from prior greats of the game on your player in the media. Can impact morale.

Great suggestions. Some of these will be implemented once the match simulation engine is completed.

Another suggestion might be to include milestones throughout the career. I.e. 3000 / 4000 runs, etc. 150 / 200 / 250 wickets, etc for both FC and ODI.

Andrew, any chance we can have more visibility of minor sponsors ie. weeks remaining and amount paid per week with a total? Would definitely help out with determining what level staff to hire especially around the 1st grade level where it's so easy to go broke particularly if you get a bad set of manager objectives!

Yeah I agree - I was thinking of a place to put it last year whilst working on the game. The problem with writing software for devices, is getting the layout right for small phones etc. So, need to think of a good place to put it. Perhaps in the 'Manager' form? I need to think about where it would go.
I like the idea and it means there can be more emphasis on sponsorship. it could be an area that can be worked on more.

I concur with the manager tab - possibly between the Contracts and Investment sections? It could simply be a button that says "view" like with the analyst reports that then opens into a full window.

Perhaps we could see career stats by year rather than just by grade?

Hi Andrew. Not sure if what I'm about to suggest has been suggested or not but here goes.
1- Can we have a tab to select what type of player we want. Specialist bowler battery or all rounder giving us a better way to develop the player and not get dropped or have mentality issues on form. Also on that decide what type of player he would be. Defensive moderate or aggressive. If different formats are added then that could even go as far as those formats individually. 2- give the user the option to retire the player and not after his international career. 3- also one thing that irritates me is the club offers. Of your player is performing well in a season and your negotiations with current club fail then the other offers you get from clubs are embarrassing and no where near ur current earnings or potential earnings. 4- I'm not sure how u created the engine in terms of promoting classes but the jump from FC to INT can at times be confusing. I had a bowler avg below 21 for 5 seasons and one season even avg 15 the entire season and had no call up. 5- not sure if it's on the forum but I'll look after that but perhaps if not can you explain what the attributes actually do. Yes they self explanatory but one never knows with developers. 6- can we also see how bowlers waging wheel and perhaps a pitch map of his ball landing area. 7- can we have the team scores after each game.
Ok let me leave it there and check your reply. Others this is a great game with huge potential and I am enjoying it. Thanks bud

1. If we get a "bad boy" player, can we decrease the number of altercation/sledging/ball tampering/wicket tampering/spitting events our player partakes in? It's ridiculous to be fined/suspended every couple of weeks. Even David Warner doesn't get in as much trouble. 2. As above with an "injury prone player". Even if my player has a good physiotherapist and only does Standard training, they still get injured more than Shane Watson and Michael Clarke combined! 3. Asking for charity - too often! I know it is supposed to increase Heart and Mentality but I haven't been able to gain any Heart attribute points from donating to charity. 4. Can the Cricket Academy have more effect on the next player - I know he will start off with increased attributes, but his potential is much the same as other non Academy players. 5. I concur with the option to play on after losing an international contract.

Excellent game kind of like a big brother version of my cricket player batsmen app which I developed few years ago in VB ,however I would like to see couple of new features. 1)Have a bowling speed mechanism for eg you start of as a 15 year old bowling at 110k and then as you grow older your bowling speed increases ,injuries makes you slow down ,add some random element as well , it will be great challenge to see if your player turns out to be a speed demon. 2)Have player loses attributes as well if we neglect some areas of training for so long and also poor form and injuries should also reduce attributes.
Also in my app there was an over by over simulation and aggression bar like in Icc game you could add that as an option for eg if you are bowling you can click 10 times to bowl 10 overs (if you are to finish your quota) and also for batting you have to keep clicking next over until you get out also you have aggression bar to give more control over innings.

Make it possible to score more hundreds and 5wits hauls currently they are on the lower side , decrease bowling rating ,currently its so easy to maintain bowling avg in (FC) mid teens which is unrealistic , also make it possible to have lower bowling in international cricket than FC as some players develop later in their careers. Also have 3 types of growth model each for batting and bowling , 1)early bloomers ,player reaching their potential early but find it a bit difficult to maintain. 2)slow and steady ,players reaching their potential at the age 27/28 3)late bloomers ,player reaching their potential in early 30s. Attach an element where a prolonged poor form result in permanent loss in attributes.

Hi everyone,
Thank you for your suggestions. I have added them all to my bugs/improvements list and I will review them in depth later on.
I should get some time off work next month, so I hope to sit down then and get back into some programming on this game.
Cheers,
Andrew

Hi Andrew, This is one of the greatest game in the history of simulation of Cricket, you did the fantastic job and we all should be appreciated of your this effort... Now come to the game with some suggestion for more interesting and improve the quality of the game. 1. We have to select what type of player we want either a pure batsman, pure bowler, specialist wicketkeeper batsman, batting/bowling fast/Med allrounder OR batting/bowling spin allrounder. 2. If you see in real life of cricket in all test nations, lots of players are debut International at 18 to 20 yrs, however in this game the international debut at 21 to 27yrs and the player will retire at 34 to 37yrs. Therefore can you allow player start the career by 14 in 2nd grade and he'll perform very very well then it should be promote to 1st grade within 2nd season as well as within 2nd season of 1st grade to FC, so by 18 to 20yrs he'll be debut to International Cricket. 3. Please classified the FC tours by stage of ODI/FC/T20 as well as International tours should be atleast (2 Test/3 or 5 ODI and 1 or 2 T20I), so we may see in which class our player has been performed well. 4. If possible, allow to show us the score card of each game or best performance. 5. Rewards at every level of game (2nd and 1st grade, FC or International) against the winning any awards (so players can use this money in certain parts of the game). 6. Allow us to play richest T20 leagues (IPL, Big Bash, English, and Caribbean) not only get the contract but also player can go to the team and played over there as well as getting some special sponsorship. 7. Also player can participate their country local T20 competition as well for getting extra money. 8. At this moment player only play 1 match in a week, but in real life they are playing approx (2/3 ODI's) OR 1 FC/Test as well + 1 ODI/1 T20/T20I) 9. Add some short coaching lesson from ex-players/coaches round the world to improve your players at FC or International levels hiring by cricket board. 10. Add T20I world cup just like ODI world cup. As i have added alot points (might be some good and some stupid) but i would leave it here and check your reply. Best of Luck for future improvement in the game, so may peoples can enjoy more and more Best of Luck and Have a good luck of your game. Thanks buddy.

Hi there! This page seems quite but I'm gonna post this anyway. Wanna let you know this is an AMAZING game! Just the kind of game I was looking for. Hope we get to a new version soon. Maybe you're already working on new version but here are some suggestions - I use android 2.3 and there's some issue with the layout. The pop-up screen is kinda cropped. - Provide option to select Batsman/Bowler/AR - Why is it so hard to score centuries in this game? - Include FC/Test+OD+T20? - Maybe add detailed tournaments? Like FC tournament, OD tournament, t20 league.. with points table? IDK - You should number each week from 1 to 52 - Isn't there supposed to be 2 inns in first class? Can't think of anything else right now.. lol Please release a new version ASAP! PS keep the game size small and for android 2.3
