What’s new in Cricket 24?
The most anticipated feature is Pro Team, a new game mode debuting in this year's title. While specific details are still under wraps, rumors suggest that Pro Team will resemble the highly popular Ultimate Team modes found in EA Sports' Madden and FIFA, soon to be rebranded as EA Sports FC.
The Ashes, KFC Big Bash, Weber Women’s Big Bash, The Hundred, Pakistan Super League, and the Caribbean Premier League have partnered with the game and will be available. A number of Indian Premier League (IPL) teams will also be included in the game which is great news as India has a massive cricket fanbase and Big Ant will be able to tap into the craze.
Big Ant Studios has previously partnered with multiple IPL teams in the past and they are likely to make an appearance. Delhi Capitals, Mumbai Indians, Gujarat Titans, Lucknow Super Giants, and Punjab Kings are in the game according to leakers but there is no confirmation from the developers yet.
