Test cricket unplayable at times on CC25

Has anyone else found in certain test series it's impossible to beat the AI no matter what you do?

I do have some series where my team (England) performs better than expected and I do win series. I always seem to win against Australia and sometimes against India.

However, when I play Pakistan or South Africa at home, I can barely win a test. It almost feels like I'm playing as an associate team against a test nation. They regularly pile up 550+ in their first innings and then the pitch appears to become a minefield as soon as my team bats. Even putting the batsmen on defensive settings has no effect- they're sitting ducks.

Dismissing the tail of the opposition is a nightmare as well.

It's definitely the most random and unpredictable edition of the game ever in my opinion. I never know what I'm going to get from one series to the next.
