Cricket games are dead and buried IMO. A series of average games plus a niche market equals a disaster.
But at least we have the memories. Shane Warne '99 on PS1, those were the days.
I'm sure (hope) a good indie game will come along eventually, just because AAA studios don't find it profitable enough doesn't mean indies will.
Stick cricket is a simple flash game and that's lots of fun.
Cricket? Isn't that the British game that combines bowling and baseball? Lol that's one wacky game you have there but way too boring for video game. You couldn't give that game away.
As a Brit I've no idea who Lebron James is, I've vaguely heard of the name before but that's about it. I think if you asked most non Americans to name a famous basketball player they would all say Michael Jordan and that's primarily because of Hollywood.
NFL, NBA, MLB are only really popular in the USA but that's a big enough market by itself as far as publishers are concerned.
Cricket is a complicated game not weird, which is perhaps one of the reason video games of it have always been a challenge. Baseball/Rounders are both extremely simplistic by comparison.
Rugby is also more popular worldwide than the NFL.
