Much of the stuff has already mentioned, but i would like to point out that the best part of this game is playing a Test match.
Yep that's right. Some of you might be thinking that without an Autoplay it could be a taunting task, but actually its not.
The bowling is really fun. Infact i enjoy bowling more than batting (yep its that fun).
I haven't played much one day matches yet, because right now i m hooked up with test matches n all. It takes around: 40mins-1:30 hrs to play 90 overs (i-e 1 day of play)
Pitch wear n tear plays an import part. So far from my experince, if i bowl at rough patches with a spinner, the ball actually turns more (now that is sweat).
You will start to see wear n tear from day one....the rough patches looks cool. Play a test match and set the weather conditions to variable, then you will actually witness weather changing from sun light, to cloudy, rain, much more. Very impressive.
Few negatives though:
- No Time
There is no option to check the time. Its more based on session by session.
- Lack of stats
There aren't much stats avaialbe for you to look at, accept for the scorecard, and few other things.
- Fiedling postions
I found that default fielding postions are close to no good. There aren't much fielding postions to choose from. But there is always custom field option.
Over all this game is really fast paced and fun. I love how fast this game is, you won't feel bored for even a second. Fast gameplay, smooth animations, good graphics make this a perfect time killer game.
I would rate this game 8/10. A must have cricket game!
