Cricket management goes online

UK online developer TCG is hoping to build on Ashes fever with an online cricket management game.
TCG has announced that it is developing an online cricket management game that is planned to launch at the end of 2006. The game will allow users to run a virtual cricket club and compete in a massive world league. This will involve the day-to-day running of the club, the buying and selling of players, and competing in live games that can be altered while playing.

TheCricketGame will offer variables such as weather, form, and morale, which can all alter team performance. The game also places an emphasis on batting and bowling strategies, which, when combined with the captain's leadership abilities, will have an effect on the outcome of the game.

The game promises role-playing elements that will allow you to focus your skills on areas such as coaching, tactics, and management. Successful managers will also be able to develop the club's cricket grounds or develop the youth academy.

Users can register now at www.thecricketgame.com to receive updates on the game's developments and to be considered for the upcoming beta-testing phases.
