My plan is to do a Test match only International Career on International Cricket Captain, focussing on one of four available countries; the tone of the story would be different depending upon which country it is built around. They would be:
Afghanistan (RECEIVED TWO VOTES): One of the two new Test nations, but blessed with a very strong player pool - arguably stronger than is realistic, as you will often see the AI Afghanistan win a World Cup early in the game.
Ireland (RECEIVED FIVE VOTES): The weaker of the two new Test nations, and the one with whom I feel the strongest affinity being technically Irish myself.
West Indies (RECEIVED THREE VOTES): One of the weakest playable countries in the game, especially as the database was created before Jason Holder became the destroyer of worlds that he is today.
Zimbabwe (RECEIVED NO VOTES): The weakest of the established playable countries, but with a strong enough core of players to cause some occasional upsets. Helped by this game not simulating the conduct of their Board.
My personal preference would be to write either the Ireland or Zimbabwe stories, but I don't want to end up doing something that nobody reads.
THANKS TO ALL WHO VOTED. THE STORY "SHOULDER TO SHOULDER" BEGINS BELOW.
