World Cricket Championship 2 is a simulation game designed for computers and mobile devices running Windows 10 that recreates the fun and excitement of cricket matches.

If you ever watched a cricket match at home and wished that you could get in on the action, now is your chance. You can play long and short games while sitting on your couch and without worrying about getting hit by other players or developing scars. This is easily one of the most realistic games around. Once you load it and start playing, you can practically smell the sweat in the air and hear the shouts from the crowd.

Though some companies such as EA make paid games that you can use on a console, World Cricket Championship 2 is a free game that works on more devices. You can choose from dozens of teams and have fun watching as your hometown favorite beats the competition. If you want a real challenge, you can opt to play against an AI team. The AI players use realistic moves and will do whatever it takes to keep you from winning, which makes the game a little difficult but keeps it from being too boring. You can pick and choose the players you want on your team too.

One of the top features of World Cricket Championship 2 is the Tournament Mode. As much fun as you have watching teams compete on your television screen, you'll have even more fun playing in the tournaments and trying to take the top spot. This game gives you different options that you can choose from based on what type of tournament you want to play too. Some of your options include the World Cup and the Indian National Premier League. With the Indian National Premier League, you can play a full season and see how you do.

Unlike paid games that cost a lot and give you access to most features right off the bat, World Cricket Championship 2 requires that you play a little before unlocking all of the top features. Only after playing in one league can you unlock the next. It also requires that you play a few games in one area before you move to the next. Each time that you play a game in Casual Mode, you receive coins that you can use to unlock more features as well as players and special moves.

As long as you have access to the internet and friends who play the game, you can click on the Challenge a Friend option. You'll need to add your friends, but you can then challenge them to matches within the game. This is the ultimate way to see who is better at cricket. Challenge a Friend allows you to play against strangers too. Once you connect to the internet, you can view all the players who are online and challenge any of them to a match. Each game that you play helps you earn more coins that you can use later.

Gangs of Cricket is another mode that you may want to play. It asks you to pick people to add to your team and then gives you a list of missions that you need to complete. As you progress, the matches become more challenging and take more time to finish. The game also has a standard Missions mode that you can use at the same time that you compete in tournaments. This mode gives you various missions that award you different prizes. You may need to score a goal with a specific player or beat an opposing team by a certain number of points.

One reason many cricket fans like World Cricket Championship 2 is that it includes updated content and information. Not only will you see some of your favorite players in the game, but you can compete at the same stadiums where they play in real life. A possible downside is that it doesn't list those players' names because this is not an officially licensed game. You'll easily recognize some of them based on their uniforms and hair as well as how they play. The more you play, the more coins you get, which you can use to unlock all the cricket stadiums in the game.

The biggest issue with World Cricket Championship 2 is that it requires a lot of storage space. If you do not have enough room on your hard drive, you cannot download it. Even if you have enough space, you may find that the game is glitchy because it needs more room. Those glitches often appear on the mobile version, especially if someone calls or you receive a text message while playing.

Another possible issue concerns the AI players and teams. Though this allows you to play when your friends are offline or no one wants to play, it makes the game even harder. Depending on your skill level, you may find that you can't beat some of those teams or advance through the tournament. That can make you want to give up, but if you stick with the game, you'll find that it's worthwhile.

Anyone who loves watching cricket matches will love World Cricket Championship 2, which includes a Blitz Tournament. This lets you jump right into the action and start playing immediately without needing to unlock a new stadium or do anything else in the game. With the World Cup mode, you can see how well your players can handle the frequent and long matches. It comes with more than 40 stadiums that you can unlock from countries around the world and more than 30 items you can buy with the coins you win to unlock new features. The best way to play cricket at home and recreate the authentic feeling of gameplay on your couch is with World Cricket Championship 2 for Windows mobile devices and computers.
