Start from the bottom and work your way upward through various matches and tournaments.

Developed by Zealcity, Cricket Career 2016 is a super realistic cricket simulation that thrusts you into the dynamic world of cricket. On it, you have to begin from scratch, design your avatar, and win against opponents in different matches. There are various seasons and competitions to overcome.

Forge your cricket championship destiny

As mentioned, players of Cricket Career 2016 will have to go through various steps in order to achieve absolute success in the sport. First, you have to create your own avatar — customize its name, country of origin, skin tone, and more. The customization options are plenty, although they are not diverse and do not include more specific details like being able to change facial features or the uniform.

Then, you will have to undergo a series of matches — a true-to-life season system that features World Cups, domestic competitions, and even T20 leagues — and rise above your opponents. What makes things more exciting is the superb 3D graphics, complete with thrilling strokes and animations that are motion-captured through international cricket star Murali Vijay. There are more than 30 stadiums to play in, too.

Moreover, you can choose your starting batter from one of the 300 teams across 10 countries. As you play, you can also attract the attention of virtual sponsors, who will then aid you in your conquest to the top. Buying luxury items and equipment upgrades is possible as you earn money, improving your overall gameplay. However, it’s reported to have quite a lot of bugs that disrupt gameplay at times.

A game that’s worth your while

If you look past the intermittent bugs you will encounter, you will find that playing Cricket Career 2016 is a worthwhile experience. The premise is promising, requiring you to come up with your own little upstart cricket batter and take him all the way to the top of the ranks. Its detailed 3D graphics and animation add a layer of charm, too, especially the motion-captured moves from cricketer Murali Vijay.
