SEASONAL SITUATIONS (as in this spans over the whole season!)
1. Take Cover (difficulty rating = 1), Guide Lancashire through what should be a pretty easy season, they've got all the best
players - there's no England players because they all been banned from playing because they've been told their so embarassing to their country that they must
not play for their counties incase they make them play worse (as if!). The Lancashire squad includes - Wasim, Flintoff, Penney, Paul Johnson, Lloyd, and Stephenson,
expect Fireworks - expect easy wins! - expect your easiest seasons worth of management in your life!
COUNTY CHAMPIONSHIP SITUATIONS
2. Surrey2014 (difficulty rating = 6), As far as the games go this own is the furthest on from the start of the 1998 season,
with just 4 seasons left to run. In this situation the Surrey team have nearly won everything most years and are probably one of the most succesful
teams in the 2000's. They have many England players and generally bat from 1 to 9, just this time everythings gone rather pear shaped and Surrey are 34/7 under
what appears to be perfect batting conditions.
SUNDAY LEAGUE SITUATIONS
3. Warwickshire1 (difficulty rating = 4), As a lot of you may know (some of you may not), I am the author of the ICC96 database which starts the game of
ICC as if it was 1996 all over again!, well Warwickshire require a further 130 runs at 5 an over under cloudy skies against quality bowling and with 2 new batsman at the crease - can it be done ?
(Hint : - Pace the innings, don't neccesarily blast it everywhere straight away!).
4. Northants 9 to win (difficulty rating = 2), Here's something to break the mould - a bowling challenge. Hold your nerve with the Hampshire 1996 squad and stop Northamptonshire
scoring the 9 runs they require to win from the last over. This challenge requires very little apart from the ability to work under pressure!
5. Nervesofsteel (difficulty rating = 6), Another bowling challenge! - Yorkshire must defend just 3 runs from the final over to be bowled to
a man who has just hit a century of the Yorkshire attack. Will you attack ? Defend ? Stop the singles ? Stop the boundaries ? Pressure the batsman or just panic and give up!
6. Middlesex Miracle (difficulty rating = 5), Middlesex require 31 runs off 24 balls in a vital Sunday League encounter against Hampshire - difficult isn't it,
well actually it gets worse - you've got the last pair at the crease!
I should quickly point out that I am in no way related to Empire Interactive the maker's of the wondeful game of International Cricket Captain - although
I'd certainly like to be part of that successful team!
