Forty-five new playable domestic teams across Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Ireland, Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe give you more ways than ever to start your Cricket Captain journey. Whether you want to build a dynasty in Sri Lanka, top the tables in Zimbabwe, or build a team in Ireland, there has never been more choice.

    Cricket Captain 2026 takes on a packed summer of England international cricket, with home Test series against New Zealand and Pakistan, and white-ball series against India and Sri Lanka.
    Match engine improvements across all formats, alongside faster contracts, save times and score prediction, allow you to progress through seasons quickly and spend more time on the decisions that matter. 3D engine improvements deliver smoother animations and better blending between actions on the match screen.

    The addition of the kit editor, competition logo editor and team emblem editor allow greater customisation than ever before. Based on user feedback, the in-game Player Editor has been expanded with match type retirement controls.

    Take more control of your career, with the option to choose whether you want to manage at international level, domestic level, or both for each format.

      Google, Apple and Valve don't support cross-platform purchasing, Android will require a separate purchase from Steam.

            Hi,

            We're working on the login issue.

            To enable the player editor, you'll need to open the options menu from within your save. When that is enabled you'll find a cog in the top right of the player profile.

            The player editor is enabled on a per-save basis, so you'll need to enable it for any new saves you start if you wish to use it.

              We've released updates on iOS and Android:

              Fixed age verification issues
              Fixed Dropbox losing authentication
              Fixed Helmet/Pad RGB selection​

              There's still an age verification issue on Android that we're working on, so there should be another update soon for Android.

              We're in review with Apple for Mac, unfortunately Apple have been very slow for all developers lately. They took a couple of weeks just to reply to a support ticket, which was quite frustrating.

                  I can see the product is in your basket, what button did you press for the 404 error to display?

                  We've had purchases going through the store today.

                    Place order. Then it goes back to the card entry screen for a few short seconds before I get that error message

                      There was an issue with the website that we've fixed, not 100% sure it's related to your error, but I know other users are purchasing. Can you try again?
