    Imagine if Ea games and big ant cricket collab and make an ultimate AAA title cricket game, with graphics and motion capture and attention to details like GTA 6 or RDR2. And big ant handling all technicalities of cricket, and they give us update every or every ICC trophy that comes, with new players, with all their motion capture, batting style, their weaknesses, bowling style, their weaknesses, stats, everything, make us think like real cricketer, real captain, to set field according to batsman, reading the pitch well, planning and everything else. IF this happens, this would be the most selling cricket game in the history of cricket video games. Fans would go crazy. But whenever i see if ea is making cricket game or not, i only gett disappointment and had to satisfy myself with cricket 24.

In the last ten years they have hardly done anything for offline modes, which is personally what I play.

They have experience with games optimization and all pricing will not be a big problem as they have basics of cricket so they don't have to spend resources for basics. Games like dream cricket 25 follow EA path but they implemented it really good I would recommend it to you. The Indian market is going to boom and after the implementation of new laptop import policy the prices of hardware might drop and people then will invest in gaming.

The countries that play cricket are England which is a football obsessed country so no chance for them to spend their quid on cricket, Australia a multi sport nation that doesnt treat cricket bigger than AFL or with nationalistic values that will make them buy it, New Zealand a rugby obsessed country now the problem with real cricket obsessed countries is (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh) that these countries are just too poor and their per capita income a century behind the aforementioned (UK, Aus, NZ) countries for their pepple afford the game and help EA sports turn a profit despite the massive following the sport.
