Ashes Cricket does start to fall down where content's concerned. All in all, there's the well rounded Ashes mode and the option of playing one-day games, Twenty20 matches, or test series between any of the 12 international sides. Codemasters and Transmission Games have also put their own development teams in to bolster the line-up, as well as Asia XI and Rest of the World XI dream teams, but avid cricket fans will certainly be left yearning for more. One-day and Twenty20 matches can be played as either Exhibitions or basic Tournaments of up to eight teams, while all the different match types are available as either ranked or unranked online multiplayer games, but that's about as far as the options go.England and Australia are fully licensed throughout, which includes one-day games, Twenty20 matches and of course The Ashes mode. The other 10 international sides in the game (there are no domestic teams) are unofficial, which means playing with cricketers like C. Goile, S. Tenhukkar, and S. Ahkman instead of Chris Gayle, Sachin Tendulkar, and Shoaib Akhtar (although Akhtar, or rather Ahkman, does retain his trademark bowling style). However, a full player editing suite has been provided in the game for those of you with lots of time on your hands.
