Sports Gamer review Fri, 18 Sep 2009

Hoping to capture the Ashes fever of recent English success, I found Ashes Cricket 2009 performing at its best when staying away from the Test matches and concentrating instead on the shorter form of the game. The unofficial 20/20 matches were often thrilling and memorable, especially when played online. But maybe the whole Test match experience might be best left to the real thing.

In recent times the 2005 series was the most dramatic as England won back the Ashes in dramatic style.
