The unpredictability of the bowler means as a batsman you must concentrate, just like if you were out in the middle yourself. Cons: Visually unimpressive and glitchy. No instant save option. Unimpressive commentary and pre-match build-up. However, we didn’t fare much better in our second attempt with just two runs on the board before being clean bowled by Mitchell Starc.

We hope this second attempt is a sign of things to come as England's top three scored some runs! Playing as Joe Root, we entered the fray at 104-2. Combine this intelligent gameplay with the graphics, licenses, and new features in the Career Mode, and this game will not let you down.

To be fair, there is such a thing as spending time poorly, so it's not like that, by itself, necessarily deserves a reward. You can spend 50 years making a game, but if end result is bad, then it's still bad.
