Great game, best on the market

Have been waiting for this for what seems like an eternity but finally it’s here!

The changes are not always clear but I’m more than happy with the updated squads and increase in playable teams. It’s like FIFA, I still pay for it each year even if not a lot has changed because the game is awesome 👍🏻

Good work!

Consistent as ever

Another year and another Cricket Croatian launch! Easily the best cricket game on the market, once again the game runs smoothly and delivers for what I want. Although some features are still lacking (DRS, custom editor), the guys at Childish Things do so well to churn this game out with a small budget and still add leagues and update their database.

The Greatest

Simply the BEST cricket game, period! It’s also the most engaging, sports sim EVER released. Year after year it excels.

Smooth

Excellent game, really smooth compared to last years version. Can spend hours on this!

UNREALISTIC AI & DEFAULT FIELDS

Computer and default fields are ridiculously unrealistic, surly this should be easy to fix?!

Very similar to other editions so don’t expect much to be different. No change in graphics which would have been welcomed.

Also in the game, Medium-Fast bowls quicker than Fast-Medium, this is incorrect, it should be the other way round.

Hi Maggot81, We have 75 fields in the game, please let us know the bowler type used and the tactics you were using (a screenshot would be good), if you'd like to contact our support, we will happily go through fields with you. It takes quite a lot of work to change fields, as it's not just a case of moving a fielder. There’s a lot of delicate balancing to do. When Cricket Captain was first released in 1998 there was not universal agreement on the speeds of RFM vs RMF. We took RMF to be faster, reading it as (Fast) Medium vs (Medium) Fast. Since then the standard has become RFM is faster than RMF, but our players are used to the Cricket Captain definition, so we have stuck with it so far. Chris is keen to change this next year, but it’s not something we can do as an update for CC18. https://childishthings.com/support.php
