Cricket has taken the leap onto the next gen consoles and proves
itself to be the definitive Cricket game of all time!
Cricket's evolution to the PlayStation 2 has meant an incredible
leap in just about all areas of the product. Detail in stadiums, players, player faces,
ball physics, team AI, pitch detail, pitch physics and player options.
All 10 international teams and 2 minnow nation teams are included,
as well as 5 bonus all time squads for the major nations. Test matches as well as
One-dayers will also be included for this game so all teams will have both white and
colour kits. Other new game options will include World Cup, World Series, Sharjah Trophy,
Practice Nets, Exhibition match and Knockout Tournaments.
Cricket 2002 will truly be a hallmark game not only in Cricket, but also in
sport simulations
