StickCricket is the number one ranked cricket game for Android in the Google store and the app is continuing to rise due to the straightforward but exciting the gameplay.
Here is our detailed breakdown of the different sections in the app.
Inside Edge
This allows you to practise your batting before you step out to the crease in a game. It is best advised to go this section right after you download and install StickCricket as you can practise the various shots so you can get used to the timing involved to connect with your bat.
There is a step-by-step guide on how best to score runs from the ball leaving the bowler’s arm to it reaching you at the crease.
All Star Slog
In All Star Slog you have five overs to score as many runs as possible. You can choose any of the leading national teams in the world such as Australia, England and South Africa and you will face an All Star XI which includes Sachin Tendulkar, Shane Warne and Brian Lara, who once scored 400 against England.
It is important to hit as many boundaries as possible in this section of the game so you should not be afraid to take on the big shots. You have 10 wickets to play with so you don’t need to worry about making the occasional mistake.
Once you set a score, the app will remember the total so you have the chance to beat it again. You can also mix up the team you choose to play with on each attempt at your record tally.
World Domination
Once you have been inside Inside Edge and had a go at slogging the ball in the All Star Slog, you are likely to be ready for a game. In World Domination you play with the All Star XI with the aim of beating all of the international teams on the game.
The first team you are required to beat is Canada. Once you work your way through some of the lower ranked nations in world one-day cricket, you will then face the better teams, including the number one team in the standings Australia who are currently 3/1 with Betway to win the ICC Champions Trophy later this year. Steve Smith’s side have proved difficult to beat over the last 12 months and that is reflected in the game as you will need to score a lot of runs if you are to beat the Aussies.
Multiplayer Options
Using Bluetooth on your phone, you can play Stick Cricket against one of your friends. Each player will choose a team and you will compete against each other to see who can score the most runs. This is a real fun part of the game so do encourage your friends to download the app if they have not already done so. It is important to take turns who selects their team first in order to make it fair otherwise you may have an edge if you are allowed to choose world Twenty20 champions West Indies each time you play.
Gamers Prefer Simplicity
Stick Cricket is another prime example of how gamers prefer simplicity and gameplay when it comes to mobile phone games. This means it attracts a much wider audience as you don’t need any experience of playing a cricket game before to have a bit of fun.
