Was about to post it.

Looks fun game overall. Hope we don't have scores shown above in other game. Don't think any broadcaster use that overlay now except for Channel 9, I guess.

Yes the overlays/scorecard box looks a lot better than the games we've seen in the last 5 years or so.

I love how you can only see the bowling marker once the bowler releases the ball, just like in real cricket, judging the ball out of the hand. Can't wait to see more of this game and Big Ant Cricket.

Basically it's stick cricket, but not free and trying to cash in on nostalgia?

It is certainly for those of us dinosaurs that played the felt/ball bearing version of the game and want to get a little nostalgic, and hopefully it's fun for newcomers too :)

Looks great Ross, I can't wait for this. Hopefully it will fill in the time nicely until the real deal is released.

This looks amazing! The player animations are fluid and the bowling marker timing is spot on. Also notice the continuous camera movements Ross used to talk about.

What I love from the trailer -
1. Gameplay- Love the bowling and batting and the follow through of both the bowler and batsman, also the movements of the wicket keeper, this all looks so real, nothing like I have seen in past Cricket games! I think this is the fluent Bat to Bowl to Field experience Ross was talking about! Love how the bowler jumps and appeals for an LBW at 0:29, absolutely amazing :)
2- How the camera has been implemented.
3- Player and umpire models and the wicket keeper gloves :)
4- Excellent graphics and animations.
5- Stats

I have a few questions though:
1- Anything you can tell us about the AI in the game! Is the action going to be unpredictable like in real life Cricket? The only way I will get bored of the game is when it becomes repetitive and easy.
2- Would it be possible to place our fielders anywhere on the field?
3- Did not see any defensive shot in the trailer? It would be nice to have a good range of shots!

That will do for now :)

Love the backgrounds guys, i said it before looks like cricket and
micromachines, bringing back the 90s guys love it.
p.s In the trailer it says first trailer any chance of a second one before xmas.
Also how about cool unlockables like for cricket live 2013, like screen shots and
some of the characters from table top in cricket live guys.:D
