Real Cricket 20

Real Cricket 20 is a cricket simulation game that lets players experience the fun of cricket on their mobile phones. This game features a realistic auction system template, allowing players to bid on players to build their own team. Your budget is limited, so you need to plan your strategy carefully. Assemble your strongest lineup to compete for the championship. The game offers multiple game modes, including 1v1 matches and 2v2 matches with friends. Numerous tutorials are also available to help players quickly master the rhythm of cricket and reach the top.

Features:

RCPL auction and team building

Real Cricket 20 includes the Real Cricket Premier League auction where you bid for players and assemble a franchise. You balance your budget and squad roles, then take the team through a full season pursuit of the cup. Team building encourages planning for batting depth, strike bowlers, and fielding. It creates a league journey that feels organized from auction day to the final.

Real time multiplayer suite

You can compete in ranked or unranked 1v1, play 2v2 with friends, or join co-op matches against AI. The game also lets you spectate live matches, which helps you learn strategies and timing. Matchmaking makes it easy to jump into short sessions or extended series. As a result, multiplayer can be social, competitive, or practice focused depending on your choice.

Deep modes and events

Challenge Mode recreates famous chases and high-pressure targets for focused scenarios. Road to WC and Road to RCPL guide you through multi-stage campaigns, while events like Asia Trophy, Tour Mode, Urn, Masters Cup, and Crusade keep the schedule active. These modes vary pacing from fast challenges to longer tours. You can switch between them to fit a quick break or a full evening.

Skill-based gameplay and Pro Cam

Batting styles affect shot selection and aggression, with options like Defensive, Balanced, Radical, and Brute. Timing and risk control decide how cleanly the ball travels, especially under pressure. Pro Cam puts you in a first person view for high-speed deliveries around 90 MPH. This perspective helps you judge length and line more precisely before committing to a stroke.

Broadcast-level decisions and atmosphere

UltraEdge tools with Hotspot and Snickometer support LBW and edge reviews, so close calls can be checked. Commentary packs in English and Hindi feature Sanjay Manjrekar, and female commentary adds variety for different match settings. Stadiums such as Mumbai, Melbourne, London, and Dubai provide distinct backdrops with time-of-day options. Test matches include Pink Ball Tests under lights, and player faces with numbered jerseys add recognition to squads across formats.

Highlights:

Fun, dynamic gameplay

The controls in Real Cricket 20 are simple and quite intuitive. You can aim your throw with the controller on the left, and on the right is the button to add power to the throw and the different types of moves. But if you aren't comfortable with these controls or something doesn't seem realistic enough, you can change it from the options menu. You'll have four different control modes at your disposal: Pro Joystick, Joystick, Legacy Swipe and Classic Swipe.

Tons of game modes

The first time you play Real Cricket 20, you can complete the tutorial, which will familiarize you with the controls and some of the rules of the game. Once you've completed the tutorial, you can choose from several different game modes, both offline and online, which will allow you to play against AI or human opponents, respectively. Among the offline modes, you'll find some as fun as the World Cup Road Mode, where you can take a national team all the way to the most prestigious tournament in the world, going up against the other teams along the way.

Dozens and dozens of teams

Other cricket games only have national teams or teams from certain leagues, but Real Cricket 20 has it all. Here, you can play with your favorite national team if you feel like a good international match, but you can also enjoy a good game in the Bangladesh League or Pakistan League. In the national teams alone, for example, you'll find 19 different teams, including Ireland, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Australia and India.

Game Modes:

Challenge Mode presents cricket history scenarios where players complete specific chases from memorable moments. The World Cup 50-over edition recreates international cricket's premier tournament format, while the RCPL 50-over edition centers on franchise-based league competition. Test Match gameplay is available with the option to play under lights using a pink ball, reflecting modern iterations of the traditional format. Beyond these primary modes, Tour Mode and several tournaments—the Asia Trophy, Urn, Masters Cup, and Crusade—offer additional progression pathways.

Multiplayer offers several competitive structures. Real-time 1v1 matches are available in ranked and unranked formats, serving both competitive progression and casual play. Cooperative 2v2 gameplay enables players to team up against human opponents, while a separate 2-player cooperative mode pits them against artificial intelligence. A spectate mode allows players to watch friends' live matches in progress.
