Can some one tell me what is so special about this game?

I have never played this game and seeing people so happy it is coming out it has to be something special.

 

[Skater]

The gameplay is so spontaneous it's fun.

ICC 2002 is one of the best cricket games ever to be released and everyone thought Empire Interactive scrapped the idea of another ICC game. So for this game to be released it was a real suprise, and after their last game it should be awesome

[Skater]

I can't wait for Cricket Coach, the most underrated game of summer!
