Still, what choice there is in the game counts as a satisfying experience. However, it must be said that for a management game, it does feel light on actual management. Players might find the options available disappointing in comparison to other sports management games, but this makes the game more streamlined as a result – no extraneous nonsense gets in the way, making the game much easier to get into. You'll be put at the helm of a cricket team of your choice, be put in charge of signing players (this appears to come at the start of the season, so don't expect any last minute Football Manager-style miracle transfers), choosing lineups and, of course, leading your team to a hard-earned victory. This also means a broad array of teams to play as, including many real-world players – one problem with games like these is that the devs can't secure licensing, meaning that the experience is dampened by players with off names like “Andy Flinton” or “Shain Warned” - but, here, that's not a problem, as Cricket Captain 2015 is as authentic as you'd hope.Ĭricket Captain 2015's main bulk comes in its career mode which is surprisingly engrossing. There are no half-measures here with inclusions of teams and leagues – everything is present and accounted for, be it the top flight of the English, Indian, or Australian leagues, or the international circuit, everything is here, so you won't ever be starved for choice. The first thing that gamers will be blown away with is Cricket Captain 2015's slavishness to detail. ![]() ![]() So, I loaded up the Wikipedia page for cricket, cracked open The Telegraph's guide to the game, and got to work. However, what I do know is management games, and whether it's taking Woking from the Conference to the Champions League in six seasons (stuff like that doesn't go unnoticed, Neil) or beating WWF in the Monday Night Wars, I've never shied away from a challenge. I could name you about two players, past and present, and my interest wanes and booms with the arrival and departure of the Ashes. Now, admittedly, I don't know cricket very well. Coming out at the same time to capitalise on the cricket-mania that's bound to ensue is Cricket Captain 2015, a management sim from Childish Things that looks to be cricket's answer to Championship Manager. We're in the midst of the Ashes again as England does battle with Australia for cricket supremacy. If you're a cricket fan, this is absolute perfect timing.
