I've got it on ps3.
It's not bad. Has its faults though.

PROS
Graphics by far the best ever for a cricket game.
Gameplay is sensational.
Twenty20 cricket is a real highlight.

CONS
Only has official Australia and England squads.
No state or county cricket like previous EA titles.
No official World Cup or Champions Trophy etc...
No Adelaide Oval... :(

On the squads, you can edit them to write in the correct names. Would take an hour or so, but would solve the issue.

I'm gonna start playing this again soon. Create my own player and play the Pakis for a while.

I started doing that, but quit after 10 minutes.
Created the Renmark Rams instead!

Off topic, but I did drop in (briefly) to the cricket on Saturday.

It was too hot so I got the hell out of there. Did it go ok?

Don't see the sense in playing in 44 degrees personally butttttt...

Was ok.
I got pretty burnt yesterday, but that was my own stupid fault.
We played three games in a row and got through it fine.

Is it anything like Cricket 2005 from EA sports? I have played on the old xbox and it was ok, but very slow and you needed a world of time to play it.

Still thanks for the information about this game. I might see if I can source this game.
