i was lucky enough to get the game today for xmas 
and trust me it makes cricket 2002 look like a 1959 ford escort beside a 2003 marinello 
: .
this game is unreal!!!!
ive only played 3 games so far (all 20ov OD'S) and its a true pleasure to play! my first game i played and queensland vs victoria on easy difficulty, they batted first and made 6/144 from their 20 overs, bichel picked up 3 of my 6 wickets
go son!, when i batted i tested out new batting confidence feature and to my shock it worked, i was 5/20, i settled down after that and just worked on a normal innings, i ended up losing, being 7/102 after my 20 overs. my second game i played as australia against canada and i carved them up, the computer batted first again and scored a mere 74 runs before they were dismissed , i made the runs in no time being 1/76 after 11.4 overs. my third game i played as australia vs sri lanka and this time i batted first, scoring 6/132 off my 20 overs, sri lanka beat me and scored at a bit worrying pace... smashing my bowling attack from the park to be 3/135 off just 13.1 overs.
overall i rate this game 9/10 for fun! it is so much better than 2002! the animations look great, the batting is so much more lifelike and the bowling actually has affect, i bowled a guy in my first match leg stump outta the ground from a swinging delivery pitched well outside off!.
the computer does score runs a little too easy occaisionally but it doesnt take away from the fun at all, also the replays are awesome, each replay gave me about 6 different angles. truelly this is a must have for any cricket fan, and to all the ppl that gave this game a hard time i think u have been very very harsh, i only saw one cpu run out in my entire 3 matches and only 2 byes, 1 went for 4 and the other was just a 1 run bye.
thanks ea sports and well done
also i got fraps for my computer so if anyone wants some screenshots just let me know and ill get to it, im off to have dinner now ill be on again a bit later
thank god a decent cricket game !
