Cricket Captain 2025

Excellent game, you need the editnames file from the unofficial facebook group for the correct player names, once done you're good to go.

The game has an exellent gameplay foundation and has done for a long time since the 90's. It produces very realistic results. Player careers play out realistically. The tracking of statistics is brilliant. It's only limited by its graphics engine. There are other much more expensive cricket games out there that don't hold a candle to this game in terms of being a realistic simulation of the game of cricket. It would be great to see the graphics engine worked on more to make the tv style presentation even closer to real-life.

do not buy this game ... they cannot be bothered to have the real England players names in it .. as soon as i saw that i instantly deleted the game and got a refund

Prior knowledge of cricket or a saintly amount of patience is strongly recommended. I give it a cautious thumbs-up despite its flaws because there's not really anything like it on the market. Those flaws have been with the game for a while. Unlike similar management games, the player doesn't really get to see "under the hood" of how the players operate within the game engine. No attributes are visible, only statistics, but I can statistics can be manipulated! Player growth and regression are also static - there appears to be little or no regression, and development only happens when players are given specific types of practice time. It makes the game feel less like a dynamic simulation and more like a weighted RNG with some basic cricket animations attached. The new player editor is helpful, but it still only affects ability as a measure of percentage of whatever the player's ability ratings are... which the player cannot see. The career mode is also still a bit light on options compared to similar games. I'm from an ICC Associate Member country and cannot play a career mode as my home country; I have to play a one-off tournament. To play multiple years, I have to pick a test-playing nation, and even some of those don't have a playable domestic structure in-game. Most franchise leagues are at least indirectly represented here, although there will be no dramatic bidding wars at player auctions - just old fashioned free agency that is just as effective in getting the player bogged down in the joys of roster construction like these sorts of sports sims are supposed to. But the beauty of CC arrives in full force, as it always does, in multi-day games. It's so obvious that this is where the game's roots lie because everything in the strategic/off-field layer of the game is most richly rewarded in test cricket and it is *brilliant.* Even when I am frustrated with other parts of the game, that keeps me coming back, and the career mode can be tailored to only play tests, which is like threatening me with ice cream. If you're apprehensive, I recommend waiting for a sale, but for all my frustrations, I've gotten my money's worth from the game and still will for a while to come.

A really good game. Would be great to have U19s ,A teams and also loan signings

good

Constantly crashes, can't play for too long before a crash. Very frustrating!!!
