Cheats for International Cricket Captain computer game for the PC Up Features. Developed by Chau Le is now available on the Downloads page. The editor allows you to alter players stats, create new players, etc. Accidentally sets the starting batting average to be a negative number which could actually be interpreted as a very large.

I've never played any game that is quite so amusing.

For those unfamiliar, it's a cricket management game. You select teams, you pit them against others, you control certain facets of gameplay and the computer mediates the game.

It's great being able to select your own teams and pretending you know better than the selectors. However, the real fun begins when a) you decide you don't know better and b) your game passes its second or third year. At that point, player turnover becomes outrageous, and you get to create this whole hellish parallel universe for your country's cricket team when you run out of natural talents.

One can only imagine how team meetings would go down in that nightmare reality.

THE SCENE: Australian dressing room, Lord's, July 21 2005.

Big changes have swept Australian cricket since the 2003 World Cup. Over-aggression with both bat and ball sees Australia exit early in disgrace, winning just two of six games. Wins over England and the Netherlands are erased by slovenly play against Pakistan, India, Zimbabwe and Namibia (NOTE: Yes, I fucked up the Namibia game).

The ACB, deciding that the World Cup squad consists by and large of pampered little wastrels, plays its hand. Reviews are taken. Hard decisions are made. A new team is chosen- one that takes nothing for granted.

The team's captain, Ashley Noffke, addresses his new batch of troops.

'Err.. welcome, everyone. Glad to see you all today. I see some old faces, and a couple of new ones. I'm feeling good about this game, and I know you won't let me down.'

Australia's most feared spinner, Shaun Flegler, sticks his hand up. He asks where the keeper is. Noffke doesn't know. His new ball partner, Mark Harrity, says something about seeing him out back.

Scott Kremerskothen, one of the team's five debutants, asks about the pitch. Noffke confidently replies: 'Featherbed. My dog could make runs on that.' Kremerskothen casts an anxious glance towards Martin Love, his opening partner. Love isn't worried: he is the most capped player in the squad (8 caps).

22-year-old Michael Klinger cradles his newly-won baggy green cap. Fellow debutant Jimmy Maher, finally given his chance at Test level, addresses the room.

'I know there's been big changes since '03, but the ACB has total confidence in you guys. If we believe in ourselves--'

Maher gets no further as the door is smashed off its hinges. Propelled by a tidal wave of VB cans and empty KFC buckets, keeper Wade Seccombe bursts into the room and begins to scream that all his friends have been dropped and that the ACB is a thrice-damned morass of traitors and thieves. Clinton Perren is powerless to stop the raging keeper by himself as he lurches for Noffke, and only a brave effort by Graeme Rummans and Brett van Diensen can stop him. Rummans is overcome by the boozy fumes emanating from Seccombe, while Matthew Inness sobs quietly in the corner.

This is my imagining of a team I picked in ICC 2001. Australia's Test team rated half a star for both bowling and batting, and every game was an eternal struggle. Still, it was wonderful fun ruining Australian cricket. I highly recommend it.

The cursed XVIII: Love, Kremerskothen, Maher, Perren, Rummans, van Diensen, Seccombe (wk), Noffke (c), Flegler, Harrity, Inness, Vimpani, Klinger, Rogers, Johnston, McNamara, Davison, Karpinnen

Cricket Captain, formerly International Cricket Captain, is a series of cricket management video games by Empire Interactive, and by Childish Things since International Cricket Captain 2009, before which Empire went into administration. It rose to popularity in 1998, following the release of the first PC-based game in the series. The most recent version of the game is Cricket Captain 2019.

The concept for International Cricket Captain was the idea of Chris Child, who programmed the original game engine as a university project. Empire producer Brian Walker produced and co-designed the game in which the player takes control of an English County Cricket squad with the aim of leading them to success in the domestic competition and ultimately being asked to take up the position of England manager. There is also an added option in later games in the ICC series to take control of one of the other Test playing nations.

Taking inspiration from the hugely successful Championship Manager series of games which were also produced by Brian Walker, most aspects of a management sim are present in ICC, with the ability to coach players on their individual skills, scout opposition and buy and sell players at the end of each season. There are also comprehensive statistics available in the form of career stats pages for each player and team. Graphs and charts help the gamer to select the strongest team possible against particular opposition.^[1]

Transition to console[edit]

Although mainly a PC based series, there have been console cross-overs, most notably for ICC 2001 which appeared on the PlayStation. However the PS version was limited in features compared to its PC cousin and as a result was not very successful. Aside from the lack of on-line play capability, gamers noted that the transition to the console meant for longer loading periods and a slightly more tedious controller-based interface.^[2]

Game engine revamp[edit]

ICC III was released on 6 July 2007 including a new algorithmic method of calculating player performances and a 3D match engine with motion captured shots. These changes are arguably a result of the competition that International Cricket Captain now faces from the popular Cricket Coach series, developed by Rockingham Software. The new engine replaces the original graphic highlights which were retained for each of the previous versions of the game, save minor cosmetic tweaks.

Criticism[edit]

Over recent years, a common criticism from games reviewers^[3] is of the perceived lack of progress in terms of the game's functionality, with the obvious change between versions tending to be limited the updated players and statistics.
