When we started DOS Game Club back in 2017, one of our earliest members Mike ("toasty") asked us if there are cricket games for DOS. Being a keen cricket fan, this was a genuine interest of his. Or perhaps he was joking. Either way, the thought of checking out some DOS cricket games lingered in the back of our minds ever since. How does cricket even work? Let's find out!

Joining hosts Martijn ("Tijn") and Florian ("rnlf") is first of all of course Mike ("toasty") himself. He was a guest on the very first episode (on DOOM) and he's back now to answer all our cricket questions. Also joining is Jon ("BogusMeatFactory"), who was previously on the Jones in the Fast Lane episode (number 66). Jon is not only a keen and long-time streamer of obscure videogames (see link in the shownotes for his Twitch channel), but also recently became interested in cricket as a sport.

Enjoy!
