Fact of the Day Wednesday 19th

While Online play isn't supported in this version of the game, multiplayer can make up for it, with the Double Wicket match (covered last month) supporting up to 16 players at the same time (eight teams selected, two players per team).

Does that mean you can play over a LAN?

 

[brad352]

Doubt it, probably just an 8 team knockout tourney with everyone crowded in the same room

Fact of the Day, Thursday 20th

There are 17 One Day International teams in the game.

 

[squiz]

This is what I think the 17 International teams would be:
Australia, Bangladesh, England, India, New Zealand, Pakistan, South Africa, Sri Lanka, West Indies and Zimbabwe. Then Canada, Ireland, Kenya, Namibia, Netherlands, Scotland, USA

 

[barmyarmy]

I'd have thought UAE were more likely than Ireland.

 

[squiz]

That list of countries is only what I think would be in the game. You beloved Scotland should be in there though

 

[barmyarmy]

Hey we were in C2k and C2k2 so it's about time...

 

[andrew_nixon]

It probably will be the UAE instead of Ireland. If it is, that would make the 10 full members, Kenya and the 6 teams from last years ICC 6 Nations, which served as the qualifier for the ICC Champion's Trophy.

17 teams could also mean an accurate, 16 team World Cup.

Fact of the day Friday 21st

One of the classic matches isn't a match as such; you get an innings, as Sir Gary Sobers, to attempt to make six sixes in one over.

[icyman]

you might even get one asking you to break lara's 400!!!

 

[gold639]

Yeah that would be damn fun

 

[barmyarmy]

you might even get one asking you to break lara's 400!!!

TBH that sounds quite probable. Maybe they'd put you in at 350 and say make the record (and then make the bowling really evil...)
