I have heard this talked about before but don't think a thread has been dedicated to it.

I feel it would be a good addition to ICC to develop some sort of randomization to the players so when you start you don't always no who's good and you actually need to work it out in your particular save

i will just use the common batting and bowling ratings as an example.
for experienced old players who have proven themselves eg ponting, tendulkar you could give them, a fixed rating say around 1700 what ever they are.

For players like Hughes and Mendis who are ICC gods maybe have them like 1700 plus or minus 250. As both these players have had very good starts to there careers in ICC their stats are way to high so in 4 years into an ICC game they are always a top of the batting/bowling ratings as well as other certain players. I feel this is not how it may work in real life (it may) after good starts Hughes was dropped after 3rd ashes test and Mendis for Pakistan tour and now the second New Zealand test.

Have maybe random ratings (with in reason) for all player 23 or so and under but for older players still have tiny amount of random but keep it more constant.

I feel it would make the game a lot more enjoyable trying to find out the gods in your certain save.... you guys thoughts???
 
I think this is already in place as on my game Hughes is pretty normal whilst everyone else is raving about how good he is averaging over 70 while he has an average of 48 in my game.
 
Really? How many tests in is the bloke but?

Mines averaging in the 70s still after about 25 tests.

He's played 28 tests and has averaged around 50 every year so far.
 
there is no randomness. i've tested in different save files before.
 
I see Themer, as you can see in my save, Hughes dominates in all forms. Look at those hundreds!!!

Hughes is averaging 55 in my game, but Mendis is the real gun, averaging about 18.

I'm too afraid to edit him incase it corrupts my save file - ICC doesn't like change too much. :p
 
Hughes in my game is average, after reading about him on here I loaded up expecting him to cream everyone but fizzled LOL
