Some people hold the belief that nobody really knows the rules of cricket. This could be true. It contains jargon that is incomprehensible, games last for days, and it
uses the word "googly", which contrary to modern belief, is not some ancient Kung Fu involving search engines. Nor is
it an a fatal groin injury.
While not as stats-obsessed as baseball, cricket is still a game for those who like numbers. It's also not very well
served in the videogame arena, which means any new cricket game is a rarity!
Brian Lara Cricket was well received in its various iterations, and logic decrees that as this is Codemasters, the
game will be regionally released with an appropriate mugshot for the cover, so expect the name to change. However, if
you're interested, and on US shores, an import is most likely your only option.
