Description

Cricket Wizard is a simple cricket boardgame which provides an educational insight into how the game of cricket works. It was created with the support of the Clear Black Caps (New Zealand cricket team), New Zealand Cricket and also the Cric Info website. The game relies on dice rolling (a combination of a special 20-sided die and some 6 sided dice) and fielding placement as one team attempts to take wickets while the other team strives to make as many runs as possible. Unfortunately at times the dice can favor the fielding team and wickets can drop very quickly after some lucky rolls. The game does show how to score a cricket game and how the rules of the real game work, so it is possible to learn the basics of cricket just by reading the rules or playing the game.
