Ninety years of Test cricket

Thirteen Tests.
Lose none.

Spin for a nation and an era. Draft eleven of the immortals. Take them around the world — every ball off their real numbers.


1,079 players in the pack, from Bradman’s ’30s to last summer. The reels decide who you meet. You decide who plays.

How it works

Eleven picks. Each pick the reels land a nation × decade — say Australia, 90s. The left panel lists every Australian of that decade; sort by runs, wickets or dismissals, search, filter, then choose one and drop them into an open slot in your XI.

The team sheet sets the shape: 2 openers, 2 top order (3–4), 3 middle order (one of which can instead be a bowler), a spinner, two fast bowlers and a flexible bowling slot. Roles are strict — an opener only fills an opener's spot, a No.3 only a top-order spot. All-rounders carry their real bowling type, so a spinning all-rounder can't fill a fast-bowling slot, and a quick can't fill the spinner's. A wicket-keeper isn't compulsory, but field an XI without one and the side is heavily penalised. Glowing slots show where the selected player can go. You get one Team re-spin and one Era re-spin.

Every player carries only the stats from the decade you drafted them in — not their full career. A legend who spanned eras brings just the runs and wickets he posted in that ten-year window, so the same name can be a very different player in the 90s than in the 2000s. Your side is then scored on runs and twenty-wickets-a-match, era-adjusted under the hood — so a 50 against 1980s pace beats a flat-track 50.

That's the Open Tour. Every season is a tour, drawn at random and named before you draft — a World Tour of mixed decks, a spin-soaked Subcontinent Tour, a fast-and-bouncy Down Under, or an English Summer of swing (with a couple of Tests over in Ireland). The mix of pitches is shown up top, so build for it: load up on spin for the dustbowls, seam for the green tops. The same XI that sweeps one tour can come unstuck on another. Every Test plays out ball by ball against a graded local XI — tap any match on the result screen for the full scorecard, and a share link replays the exact tour, all thirteen scorecards included.

Or take the Legend Tour. Pick one of the great sides of history — the 1948 Invincibles, the 1980s West Indies, the 2000s Australians and more — and play thirteen Tests in their home conditions, against their actual XI. You draft as normal, but you can't pick the side you're touring (no stealing Bradman to beat the Invincibles), and every Test plays out innings by innings: tap any match on the result screen for a full scorecard, with a series summary and a Player of the Series at the end. Each tour is reproducible, so you can share a link and a friend can read the exact same thirteen scorecards.
