Have you ever wondered what it’s like to be out there, on the pitch, focusing hard, squinting into the sun with an excited, supportive crowd all around, cheering madly when you hammer the boundaries?
In the run-up to the 2011 ICC Cricket World Cup, there is an exciting new game offering from mig33 in which you can take on between 1 to 9 players at a time and have your very own taste of the world’s third largest and most viewed sporting event.
With the release of the new migCricket game, mig33 users will be able to experience cricket action virtually alongside this tenth Cricket World Cup from the first match being played.
In migCricket, the objective is to be the best cricket player for your team by scoring the most runs before getting out. The game is a chat-based cricket card game in which you draw different cards with different cricket outcomes. Players join the game by paying with mig33 credits. Some cards add scores while others cause the player to ‘get out’. If you draw a ‘run’ card, the runs are added to your overall score, but if you draw an ‘out’ card – you could even go out for a duck! To make the game even more interesting, there is also a 3rd Umpire card which exempts a player from going out the following time they draw an ‘out’ card during the game. The player who stays in the game longest, and scores the most runs, is declared the winner.
If you’ve always dreamed of hitting sixes or scoring a century, here is your virtual opportunity. You can have a fantastic strike rate if you play your cards right, and imagine the satisfaction of knowing how it feels to be on a winning wicket.
migCricket facilitates this game for millions of users, whether via a mobile download or web access. Go to m.mig33.com or www.mig33.com; and take your chances at becoming a world class, top order batsman whilst playing a great game in a fun, virtual environment.
