Doodle Cricket
Doodle Cricket is a lighthearted sports game originally released as a Google Doodle to celebrate the 2017 ICC Champions Trophy. Instead of realistic cricket simulation, the game delivers a fun arcade experience starring a cricket insect as the batter and a team of snail bowlers and fielders. With its colorful hand-drawn visuals and one-click controls, Doodle Cricket has remained one of Google's most beloved browser games.
DOODLE CRICKET - TIME YOUR SWING AND SCORE BIG IN GOOGLE’S CLASSIC CRICKET
Your objective in Doodle Cricket is simple: score as many runs as possible before getting out. Every delivery from the snail bowler is an opportunity to earn runs, but success depends entirely on your timing. Swing too early, too late, or hit the ball directly toward a fielder, and your innings may come to an end.
Although the controls are incredibly easy to learn, achieving a high score requires quick reactions and consistent timing. Since there is no fixed maximum score, players are constantly challenged to beat their previous personal bests, making every match highly replayable.
Controls
- Left Mouse Click or Tap — Swing the bat
- Time your swing carefully for stronger shots
Tips to Increase Your Score
- Watch the ball closely instead of swinging immediately after release
- Learn the bowler's rhythm to improve your timing
- Stay patient—consistent hits usually lead to higher scores than risky swings
- Treat every delivery independently rather than rushing for boundaries
- Keep practicing to improve your reaction time and build longer innings
