Filed Under (Mobile Game reviews) by rajesh on 04-03-2008

IG Fun has came up with another Version of Cricket for MObiles while BCCI introduced another Version of Cricket,CRICKET 20-20.This Game has all the excitement and Fun which the real cricket 20-20 game has like Powerplays,Free Hits and others.
The Game has two modes:Quick Play or Tournament.Quick Play option will delve you straight into a matchby randomly selecting your team and your opponent.Great if you don’t care who you play as.
In Tournament,you want to select a Team and Opponent,from a list of some of the best squads in the world.Even there is a Ashes Serious Tournament between England and Australia.

To Bat,The Numeric Keys and * Key in your Handset perform shots like on drive,off drive,Cut/Late Cut Pull shot,Hook,and running between the wickets and stopping the running.But its very difficult to get accumulated with these keys

To Bowl,First you should select the Kind of Bowler like Leg spinner,off spinner,Swinger depends upon their styleand using the numeric Keys plot the direction of the balls.There will be a Graphical represention of the direction of the Ball during the spin
which gives which direction to Bowl.

Encouragingly, the bowling in Cricket 20-20 works better and seems more instinctive than the batting section, so the game definitely gains a few plus points here.

Presentation is also good, with an easy on the eye colour palette, coupled with polished, EA-esque menus. The in-game graphics do the job with nice player animation, while touches such as showing the bowler taking a run up and a hawk eye-style action reply of the ball hitting the stumps are welcome. The music, sound effects and speech synthesis crowd and umpire are of a good quality, too.

Unfortunately, technically accomplished and detailed as it is, Cricket 20-20 problems – like having to remember a multitude of keys so you have a chance of hitting the ball, and the fact you don’t always feel in as much control as you should – badly dents the gameplay. There is enjoyment to be had, but you’ll likely have to be a hugely committed cricket follower to find it with Donald Bradman-like consistency.
