Games2win launches Gully Cricket

By ZDNet India Staff,
August 17, 2007
Games2win.com has launched 'Gully Cricket' game - India's street version of the popular sport.

 
Whilst loosely based on cricket, many aspects of Gully cricket are improvised: the playing ground, the rules, the teams, and the equipment. Quite often there are no teams at all; the players take turns at batting and there is often less emphasis on actually scoring runs. A bat is necessary. A ball (often a tennis ball, since this is less likely than a cricket ball to inflict injury) is the other essential item.

The pitch can be a stretch of flat ground. The wicket may be any convenient object - a cardboard box, a rubbish bin, case of beer, telegraph pole, or tree. Often, the wicket is by no means close to the official size, but it is used anyway!

The g2w game challenges the batting skills of a player. The game lasts for 3 overs and the player has to score a certain number of runs in the allotted overs without getting his team out. The game features three levels of difficulty each level being a different stage featuring different characters. The increase in difficulty means increase in precision of the bowler. Hence the chance of the batsman getting out is more. Also, the game has three typical locations where it is played – a Mumbai chawl, a building society and a college campus.

Alok Kejriwal, CEO and founder, Games2win.com says, “Gully Cricket is a prime example of how games2win creates international quality games using Indian themes. The format is a riot of entertainment while combining great game play. We expect gully cricket to become a major hit worldwide.”
