Version restrictions:
- In the full version of Cricket, each team can be selected from a squad of 15 players and you need to assess the bowling
- and batting performance of the players to improve your teams performance.
- Batsmen with lower batting averages are more likely to give catches as they try for runs - and make sure
- you rest your bowlers from time to time so they can keep up a good line and length.
