Gavin Mannion from review website Critical Hit scored the game at 8.5/10, stating that whilst the "game’s not perfect", it was an "improvement on the previous version of Don Bradman. On the review aggregator website Metacritic, the Xbox One version of Don Bradman Cricket 17 received a score of 83 out of 100, based on 4 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews". As the game does not feature official licenses, it does not contain real player likenesses. It also adds new visual and new special effects. Ĭricket 17 has new batting shots like helicopter shots, charge sixes etc. In addition to the expanded character creation system, a “full and comprehensive" stadium creator mode that will allow players to recreate their own local cricket ground in-game. A new “Be a Pro” option brought with it the ability to play through career mode as an existing player, and also have the option to play through career mode controlling the whole team.

The Career Mode is designed for the aspiring young.


Teams are also dynamic throughout player's career saves rather than locked to a single line-up for the duration other players will shift about as they retire, suffer injuries, slump in form, or get selected for higher levels of cricket. Don Bradman Cricket 14 features several game modes including online games, a career mode, and custom matches. An enriched career mode sees players begin their cricket careers at the local level, playing for teams in their chosen region before earning selection for domestic and international duty.
