Controlling every aspect of your team's management, you are in charge of the fate of your side. From youth training and transfers to international selection and in-game tactics, everything is up to you. Have you got what it takes?

This year's edition brings several key new features to the popular Cricket Captain series. With the Twenty20 World Cup and the 2009 Ashes games entering the mix (both as a standalone feature and in-game), now there are even more trophies to be won. There's also an updated online mode with Twenty20 included. Historic Ashes scenarios allow you to experience the past glory of capturing the coveted urn from the old enemy.

Cricket Captain 2009: Ashes Edition is unmatched for gameplay. With improved AI, a new integrated field setting editor, wider camera angles to watch highlights and even more authenticity, this year's game is easily the best edition so far. The match screen has been improved further this year to make it clear, simple to use and more intuitive for those quick captaincy decisions. The new auto-sim feature makes the game play experience more relaxed.

 Not what I expected....

I like all the graphics excpet I could be the best team on the game and I will lose every game I play. I got all out for something like low 200's and the oppents get high 400's. I have decided I do not like this game also player stats are not understandable at any point of the game.

 Superb for Cricket lovers

If you love cricket you will love this game. Even if you are not a great cricket fan you have to give the game time and let a season progress and you will love it.

 cricket crazy?

This game is not one for the light hearted, the last ICC i purchased was 2001, and the game has barely progressed in 2009. The interface is almost the same, even if the highlights have slightly improved(but who plays ICC to watch these shabby highlights?). It is a fantastic game for cricket fanatics who love all the stats and figures however. highly recommended for anyone who loves the other ICC games, but don't expect much different.
