“The theme music should be updated.”
“This game is the worst as it tests our temper a lot as it makes us lose every time and every time, and it makes us win once in a blue moon. Please don't waste your time by downloading this worst game, and even the music they put in the game sucks to the core.”

I know there is a career option, but if you can add the option of building a new player like in IPL or tournaments, then it would be a much more heart-touching game for all cricket fans.”
