However, as cricket is not exactly as pacey as soccer, it doesn t really matter so much. It s in SVGA as well but the 3D engine isn t really exploited that much. I d probably have completely slated it for looking ancient. The graphics are OK but aren t going to blow your proverbial socks off. As is the nature of cricket, you ll either be batting or bowling.
Batting is handled by the use of the directional keys and two fire button.
Pressing various directions performs different shots. There s a wide range of shots and some of them are pretty impressive. The trick is to position your batsman in the right place and use the right shot for the method of bowling which the batsman is using. To be honest, there seems to be a lot of luck involved. However, if you know your cricket then you ll love the attention to detail and will spend hours refining your bating skills.
