Cricket Captain 2015

Cricket Captain 2015 is a cricket management game. You manage teams and squads across domestic and international competitions, using player statistics and performance displays to guide your decisions.

Teams and competitions

The Indian domestic system lets you play as any of 27 teams in all three formats. The game also features improved Australian contracts, including bidding between states and reserve overseas players, and six classic England v Australia series scenarios, played at home or away. Five Australian and eight English international grounds are included.

Separate second-team data for three-day, one-day and 20-over cricket lets you select teams to suit each format. International squads are saved and loaded automatically for each match type. Improved Australian contracts also cover bidding between states and reserve overseas players.

Statistics and coaching

Player records include career statistics against each country, with a complete statistical update covering current players and new all-time greats. You can sort player records and squad views by column, search by name and use multiple sorts, such as batting average and strike rate. Personal and combined views also show batting aggression ratings.

The coaching system adds fielding and wicketkeeping, while Pitch Map and Beehive displays provide graphical information about player performances. The match engine models aggression and changes to one-day and first-class games.

Interface and features

The interface, fonts and graphics have been refreshed, with sharper displays and improved 3D rendering and lighting, including depth of field, shadows and animated crowds. The game also adds keyboard controls, including for batting, and further achievements and leaderboards.

Dropbox cloud-save integration lets you resume a save on another Cricket Captain 2015-enabled device. You can also accept online challenges while playing in single-player mode.
