Report an issueTOUCH CRICKET delivers the realistic thwack of English leather on summer willow. Included in The Guardian’s top five cricketing games TOUCH CRICKET embodies the temerity and dedication required to become a first class batsman. This latest version 2.2 now features a new Test Series mode - perfect for playing along with this summer’s Ashes series!
Using multi-touch, TOUCH CRICKET challenges you to find the right combination of footwork and timing in response to each unique delivery. Face all manner of googlies, leg breaks and yorkers and deploy the most effective response as you build a score to challenge the record books. Revel in a veritable almanac of play stats (are your opening pair working? Does your tail wag?) or simply come to understand the importance of stopping for drinks on a hot day and a decent Victoria sponge.
With an immersive soundtrack, TOUCH CRICKET puts you at the crease, facing the heat of a varying attack and will require as much dedication and skill to master as the great game itself:
* Choose to represent any of the 8 great cricketing nations
* Tailor your game to the time available with Twenty20, ODI and Test modes
* Play single player or online -via Game Center- in turn-based matches against friends. Also featuring full match stats, leaderboards and achievements
* Pick-up-and-play functionality - carry on where you left off
* Choose bowlers and tweak their styles, edit all team player names
* Take a player from club to international standard in Career mode
* Full Test match rule set - with options to declare, follow on or grind out the draw on day five

8 of 16I really like the controls,it lets you choose to play either on the front foot or the back foot. and moving the right thumb controls the bat-lift and the timing of release. I wonder if you guys can enhance this game by providing the standard 3D TV-like view(like other cricket games out there). That way, you can really extend your controls to cover entire 360 degrees. The game ran smoothly, didn't crash even once. To make it more interesting, you can also add a graph for the statistics section & also add other interesting stats (like performances against different bowler types/ separate limited & test stats etc)
I did not enjoy
This game is awesome. Initially it's very tough but as you get a hang of it, it becomes so fun. Lost two games by 7 & 3 runs respectively. Good chances of losing wkts at tight times
There are no new updates to the game since ages. And when I try to play online game, it doesn’t allow me to create a new game. It doesn’t allow me to delete the games that are in my queue. It is so frustrating. Even a dollar is waste to invest on this game. Free apps are 1000 times better. Don’t purchase. And BAZ cannot win a game batting first. LOL
What's the whole point of cricket if u cant bowl? Try aus vs England test series. Much better game and more fun. This is cricket for idiots
This is the ultimate cricket game available in the App Store. I have tried a lot of them. I installed this game when I first got my iPhone 3GS like four years back and after four years this is the only game that I still have on my phone and play everyday. The online mode is awesome. First of its kind for the cricket game. I like everything in the updates except that the controls are hard now. In v1 it was almost perfect. What would be awesome is a world tournament. Where you can play as a country and play with each country and a points table and see if you advance to the next level.
** The 2.2 update really messes up the game with new difficulty levels. On easy/medium, the ball feels floaty, whereas it feels more realistic on hard. But on hard, the ever-changing field settings makes the game far too difficult. Please either decouple ball speed from fielding positions (have 2 separate settings) or roll back the update. ** Finally an update to my all time favourite iPhone cricket game! The 2.1 update has fixed the bat backswing/release control sensitivity issue, making it easier to control shots. The tweaked format and variable scoring zones are great. I can literally lose hours playing this game, it's that addictive.
Very good game! It's incredibly hard to get cricket on such a device (iPhone, iTouch) but this game succeeds in doing so. Highly recommended! I do wish there were more features like bowling n fielding n option to pick yur own team for the actual matches!
