i to want this type of game... although i think it could be taken a lot further. creat a player ie your self, then get selected to join your local side, ie ing cup side, new zealand state shiel sides and county cricket seides ect. then get your 1st class career going in that team... now provided you play well, you'll get called up to play for your country.
how i reon id would work is say you bat 5th, you come out and there is a score already posted your side is 3 down for 90. now you play untill you are out and only play as your self, ie you only face the balls your facing and only run as your self.. not both players so you have to lisen to the other batsman...
if your teams is fielding then you do nothing ofc... cause who wants to stand and play in field for a full innings. so like batting it simulates... if you are a good bowler then the game will resume play when it is your over to bowl.
your goal would be to make money... sign new contracts to play with overseas teams in county cricket ect, the more cricket you play and the better you proform then the more your stats rise and the better you become. untill you retire, and see how you rank against the top 100 greatest cricketers of all time.
