Down the Ground - Full Season (The Complete Cricket Line)
9 August 2026
Down the Ground started as a 40-over Sunday League game. Two dice, a chart, a full match in about five minutes. Then it kept going.
Free Hit came for the short stuff: T20 and The Hundred, with the powerplay, the death and the dew. The Long Game went the other way entirely - first-class cricket, declarations, the follow-on, a pitch that breaks up under your feet.
Three games, and the same engine underneath all of them.
That is the point of Full Season. You rate a side once and it plays in any format. Your village XI can win the Sunday league on a wet August afternoon, lift the T20 cup at Edgbaston, or grind out a Championship over a long summer, all off the same two numbers.
What You Get
- Down the Ground - the core game. A full 40 or 50-over match from two dice and a chart: team ratings, batting modes, collapses, chases, and a scorecard at the end. Includes the Downland Sunday League - eight fictional villages and a season of Sunday cricket - plus the team builder for rating any side, real or invented.
- Free Hit - the short stuff. T20 in about five minutes, The Hundred in the same box, with the powerplay, the death, the dew rule, tournament trackers for the T20 World Cup and the Blast, and a Match Player app that rolls and tallies for you.
- The Long Game - first-class cricket. Declarations, the follow-on, pitch wear, weather and the new ball. Comes with the County Circuit: eight counties, a 14-round Championship season, a county generator, and ten great sides of first-class history rated for play.
And Every Season Pack in the Line
- T20 Blast Finals Day 2026 - the four counties who made Edgbaston, rated off the real season, both semis and the Final
- County Championship 2025 - both divisions rated and ready for a Long Game season
- Big Bash 2026 - all eight sides, a home-and-away fixtures grid, blank ladder and the real five-team Finals
Three games, three season packs, one engine.
Print and play. Two or three dice, a pencil, and as much of the summer as you can spare.
