You need to fix adil rashid about the test matchs
To hard!
Great game and concept but feels stupid.
I love cricket so I got this game, it is fun but it just feels like it favours the cpu. I am playing on easy yet I can’t win.
I’ve tried looking at tips but they don’t seem to work please add something to this game, not the next game and slap a $13 on it
Update: I have played a number of more games and it is nearly impossible to win even on easy and it is very infuriating.
Never getting this game again and if your looking at this, don’t waste your money

Indian Bias
So India is unbeatable and Kohli scores a 100 every test? Is this game developed by the ICC???
This game is awesome and gets better every year
Whoever says this game is hard , boring the same as every other game made by these guys are morons I’ve owned version since the computer versions and love them my wife thinks I spend more time playing them than with her and my daughter but I’m a cricket nuffie, everything changes and evolves if you don’t like it don’t play it , could there be improvements yes but who cares , the developers try there best in the time frame they have to support everyone and develop a better version with updated teams and formats and country’s every year keep up the awesome work and games guys

Love it
Keeps getting bigger and better every year. Larger data base meaning more teams to choose from. Fantastic for anyone who is strategically/analytically minded and loves the stats in cricket. Worth every dollar for me. Not a game for someone who wants to control the players. I love being the COACH and selecting the team and looking through my players averages etc. and there’s no better game to do that than cricket captain.

A good game with flaws in limited overs games
Generally this game is great - addictive and you are able to really build a good squad yourself over a few years. Very fun to while away the time on the tube or bus. The graphics are fine for what the game is
International captaincy is tough because of the bowling.....I can usually rack up a lot of runs but generally in every game the opposition racks up 600-5 declared most games. Something to work on
The biggest issue with this game is the controlling of batsmen in T20 and limited overs cricket
Chasing scores can be infuriating because batsmen in the final overs still play no shot or defend it despite having them on maximum aggression/ one down from maximum aggression. Once in a T20, I needed 3 off the last ball and my batsman defended it.
Other than that it’s a good game but developers should look at the aggression levels and link that into the game scenario.

Brilliant but..
Love this game, but have updated it on numerous occasions and my squads never seem to change. This for me is the most important thing for me and I think regular squad changes (particularly in the English county leagues) could improve the game dramatically.
Another thought - trying to develop young players as the seasons go on but not seeing much if any improvements- any advice for this?
Thank you though great game never off it

Great game!
Don’t believe all those who say this is a waste of time. It seems they don’t have the patience to spend time getting to know how to be a success. There is no quick fix for being great at this game. It takes time and patience to work out your best team, best field settings, when to bowl who, what bowler to bowl in what weather etc...
Yes there are times when you’ll be 100-8 in a Twenty20 match but that happens in real life as well. On the flip side there are times when you’ll hit 180+. The same can be said for 4 day or Test matches - sometimes you may reach 500+ and other times you may be bowled out for 150. Each match is different and it will be up to you to work out those intricacies.
Give this a go, play for a couple of weeks and then make a judgement. You won’t be disappointed.

Don’t buy it
This is an absolute waste of money. Overly complicated and unrealistic outcomes . Could not not stress more , don’t waste your money.
Waste of time
Update - spent a couple more weeks on this to see if i could improve. I managed to get some wins on the county champ games, but it’s a pretty dull affair after three or four marches and really tough to see how what you are doing has any impact on the game so it’s all pretty much guesswork. Forget one day matches - that seems to be total guesswork and chance. I ended up skipping the one day games and letting the AI decide who won as that seemed to at least a 50 pc chance of a win. And the only constant seems to be win the toss, you win the match. Worst 9 quid I’ve spent on here. I’m deleting. No entertainment value whatsoever.
Tried really really hard to like this game, read a lot of the forums, tried different tactics, complete waste of time. I’m sure there’s a way to beat the engine but I don’t have the hours to waste on finding out how. Unless you massively geek out on this it’s a series of frustrating batting collapses and bowling for days with no result. If you have nothing else to do and enjoy frustrating experiences then this is your game. Personally I like a challenge but a bit of entertainment and satisfaction are also key ingredients for a good gaming experience.
