Real Cricket 20

A free well-rounded cricket playing and management game

Real Cricket 18 allows you to manage a team and then use them to win matches. You must win games to become the defending champion, at which point the other teams will mercilessly cheat to knock you off the top spot.

An almost-brilliant cricket game

Real Cricket 18 is a cricket game where you manage your team and then play the cricket games. Hire players who fit your gaming style and then beat the AI enemy teams one by one. As defending winner, the game forces you to lose by giving the enemy team unfair advantages. For example, when you hit a long ball, some of their fielders appear from nowhere to catch the ball. You can play multiple types of hits and you may make bowling decisions too. The way the characters have been modelled and designed is behind the times when compared with soccer games.

Better than its rivals on release

Real Cricket 18 was the king of cricket games when it was released. At the time, it blew all of its competition out of the water because each section was so well balanced. The AI was adaptive and unfair, but each gaming element had been fully developed. For example, it wasn't a game where the cricket techniques were good, but the management side was bad. Even the bowling decision methodology is sophisticated and allows for players to use skill rather than timing or luck.
