About CricArcade
Three cricket games, one XI, one leaderboard. Free, no install, no account needed to play.
What this is
CricArcade is a set of cricket management simulations. You pick a squad and make the calls a captain makes, and a simulation engine plays the match out ball by ball. There is no twitch skill and no pay-to-win: the only thing being tested is whether your cricket judgement was any good.

🏏The Follow-On TEST CRICKET
Captain an all-time XI through a five-day Test, from every player since 1877.
The archive
Alongside the games sits an archive of 2,538 Test match scorecards, every one a real match, searchable and free to read. It is the reference the Test game is built on and it is worth a browse on its own.
How the simulation works
CricArcade runs on our own proprietary match engine, built from ball-by-ball data spanning 1,000+ real matches. Every player carries ratings derived from real career records, and the engine resolves each ball against those ratings, the match situation and the conditions in front of it.
Who builds it
One person. Vishal Jaiswal, in evenings and weekends. The three games started as three separate sites and were merged onto cricarcade.com in August 2026 so that one account, one squad and one leaderboard carry across all of them.
Shipped changes are logged in updates. If something is broken or a rating looks wrong, the fastest way to reach me is the contact page or Discord.
