Real Names

The video that was posted before did not have real names for the cricketers. Now this could be cause of 2 things

1. Codemasters is cheap and will burn in hell
2. Bravo was not allowed to use real names and they shall burn in hell


Why did that video have non real names?

Could it be because the costs of the proper licences is prohibitive (or even that EA have them so Codemasters aren't allowed them?)

Personally gameplay is far more important than a player's name.

Brings me to my second and more important question.... Will we be able to change said names.

I'll go with point one. :D

Nah - someone else has the full licences unfortunately. So that's why we can't use them outside of the ICC-licenced mode.

2 points for guessing who ;)

Here's a clue, it starts with "E" and ends in "A Sports"
