To its credit, Galli Cricket sets itself a limited task of catering to a specific niche and does a pretty good job at that. Its narrow focus in recreating the feel of street cricket means that the official formats of the sport are left out, no international teams, no tests.
A second reason is that the game lacks, by design, the sort of realism that fans seek in cricket games. The concept of ‘galli’ (street) cricket itself holds much more appeal for cricket fans on the subcontinent, most of whom developed their love for the game playing on neighbourhood streets. One reason is that the game has focused on catering almost exclusively to the subcontinent’s large fan base, to India, in particular. For a number of reasons, it has largely been eclipsed by other, better marketed cricket games on the market. Galli Cricket is a game for the PC that has been out for a while now.

The developers describe Howzat as an “online social cricket game” and, perhaps with some audacity, the “world’s sexiest cricket game.” There isn’t much information available on the game at this point. I just came across the website for this game while browsing the forums.
