Test Match

TEST MATCH: Two innings are allowed for each side and the maximum duration of the game is 450 overs. A batting side may declare its innings closed at anytime. The game also allows the follow-on to be enforced. Each player can select any one of the international teams contained in the program or devise a personalised team of their own. Once play commences, caution is the watchword. You will have to play very wisely to ensure that your top batsmen are not sacrificed foolishly (this will precede to an almost inevitable collapse) and that your weaker batsmen are brought along slowly to guarantee that they play to their best form. Also when bowling make sure that you don't exhaust your top bowlers.

ONE DAY CRICKET: The game is played with each team only allowed one innings. No declaration can be made during the game. The number of overs can be decided at the beginning of the game. As with Test Match the sides can be composed by the two team captains - although the play is randomly generated your actions will influence decisions at crucial times. BEWARE THE RUN-OUT!!!
