To make things even more fun, the batsmen in the game are actual crickets and the fielders are snails which are a reference to Google promising that the game would work on the slowest of networks.
Hit it and it may go for a four or six, miss it and you’re out. You only have to tap the screen to swing the bat when the ball comes near you. The game is simple yet clever and fun to play.
What’s so special about this Doodle is that it does not take you to a page full of information when you click on it, instead it launches a mini cricket game where you take the role of a batsman. With the launch of ICC Champions trophy today, Google is celebrating it with an interactive Doodle. Players can also share their scores on social media or email them to friends and a search icon that appears at the end of the game (you’ve only got one wicket to play with), enables users to jump to a search about the Champions Trophy and find out more about the competition.Google is known to celebrate anniversaries, birthdays, historic milestones and achievements throughout the world through their interesting, clever and fun Doodles. Just watch out for the bowling variations.
The controls are simple – one click swings the bat – but just like the real thing it’s all about the timing in this game.īringing back memories of PC classic Stick Cricket, it does a fine job of introducing those not familiar with the sport to its basics. Released to mark the start of the ICC Champions Trophy, the Doodle sees players take on the role of a pair of crickets(get it?), batting against a fielding side composed of snails. Google Doodles have been home to great mini-games in the past, but the latest animated time-killer might be the best so far.
