Press the ball. Every press deals you a random nation and a random decade — 1970s West Indies, 1990s Pakistan, 2020s India…
Pick from the whole squad. Every available player from that nation's decade comes up. Choose one, then choose where he goes in your batting order.
Every player is rated for his own decade — how he ranked among his contemporaries. A 97 from the ’80s is every bit as good as a 97 from today.
Fill the card your way. Openers up top, keeper at 6, flex at 7, bowlers at the death — but you choose the order you fill them. Players with no position left for them (say, a keeper when yours is picked) simply won't appear. And you still get one do-over per game for a hopeless draw.
Beat them all, at their place. Your XI tours the world: five matches against each of today’s twelve international sides, all sixty played in their stadiums. The dream: win the lot. Every match is played to a finish — no rain, no escapes.
Fair warning: the draw doesn't care about your plans. Sometimes you need a spinner and it deals you the 1984 West Indies pace battery. Inspired by the brilliant 38-0 website.
Four curated databases: 829 Test, 700 ODI, 564 T20 and 1445 Hundred Legends players, each rated for his standing within his own decade and format. Era-spanning greats may appear in more than one decade but can only be drafted once per game. Test pools run 1970s–2020s, ODI 1990s–2020s, T20 2000s–2020s, Hundred Legends 1970s–2020s. The Hundred Legends mode uses the current 2026 franchise line-up and format as a backdrop for an all-time-greats draft — unofficial fan game, not affiliated with the ICC or the ECB.
