If youвЂ™ve played any club cricket, particularly at a junior level, Double Wicket should be somewhat familiar to you. IвЂ™m sure most are aware of ODIs and Tests, but Double Wicket is something a bit less mainstream. For starters you have the customary exhibition mode, in which you can choose to play a Test Match, One Day International (ODI) or a Double Wicket. Those without previous cricketing knowledge may want to pick from the large number of pre-set attacking and defensive field placements, but wannabe cricket captains can meticulously place every fielder.Д«rian Lara has several game modes that should keep even the most hardened cricket fan occupied. Field placements can also be fully customised using a simple placement screen. It sounds very simple, and it is, but still requires you to remain on your toes. Stop it close to the middle and return a low fast ball or make a catch if the ball is in the air failure to stop it near the middle will result in the fielder returning a high looping ball to the keeper or a dropped catch. Using an onscreen bar that appears when the ball goes to a fielder you must stop the marker as close the middle of the bar as possible. While youвЂ™re still somewhat of an amateur at the game, the fielding side definitely has the upper hand, but once you gain more experience at batting, things will begin to level out.ДЇielding in the game is also all about timing. ItвЂ™s important to keep the batsmen guessing, so itвЂ™s a good idea to mix up the pace of the deliveries in the hope that the slower ball wonвЂ™t be spotted. All bowler types also have the ability to swing the ball, which when combined with a rip roaring 95MPH delivery, can leave the stumps in pieces. Special deliveries include Yorkers for pace bowlers and googlies for the leg spinner, and if used correctly can cause a lot of trouble.

Confidence is also important for bowling as once the confidence meter is full youвЂ™re able to bowl one of two special deliveries. Each bowling type can bowl a number of different deliveries such as seeming balls for the fast/medium paced bowlers and leg cutters for the spinner. Using an on-screen marker you choose where you want to pitch the ball and then stop an on-screen bar to determine the speed of the delivery.

Whereas batting requires precise timing, bowling is more about placement and speed. Your confidence will be reduced if youвЂ™re hit by a good delivery, if you swing and miss and also when approaching batting milestones such as fifty or one hundred.Д«owling is definitely much easier to get the hang of and to get good at. With high batsman confidence youвЂ™ll be able to pull off more successful shots and have less risk of giving away your wicket.

DonвЂ™t expect to be hitting boundaries from the first delivery as youвЂ™ll have to build up batsman confidence by playing successful defensive and attacking shots. However, the previous shotвЂ™s timing is shown on screen to give you an idea if you swung too early, too late or just right.

ThereвЂ™s no on-screen guide to help you decide when to hit the ball, so you have to use your own judgement. The direction of the shot is determined by the direction of the left analogue stick, with more shot success coming when attempting to hit the ball in the same direction as itвЂ™s delivered. When batting you have three shot options: standard attacking, lofted attacking and defensive. ItвЂ™s because of this that timing forms the basis for success in Brian Lara. Time the ball sweetly and watch the ball clatter into the boundary, but swing too early and no amount of power will prevent the inevitable poor outcome. Yes, power can help, but timing is the key. You ask any cricketer, or any sportsman, and they will tell you that timing is the key to success.

While it is true that Brian Lara International Cricket has only just moved in, I have a feeling that its lease will definitely get renewed.

For me this happens rarely, with Waverace on the Nintendo 64 (no disc tray, but it was only an analogy), the Pro Evolution Soccer series on PlayStation 2 and Virtua Snooker on the PC being a handful of games that make me want to keep going back for more. Every now and then a game is released that seems to pitch a tent and take up a home in your consoleвЂ™s disc tray.
