Update 5 Now Live

We're very excited to announce the new update is now available! Thanks so much to everyone who has left reviews and feedback with the stuff you'd like to see added to Cricket Club. We're pleased to have been able to pack a lot of your requests into this update :)

New Instant Replay Feature

• Left/Right Trackpad - Manually step backwards / forwards through the replay
