Pinball Cricket Premier League

A new concept of a pinball game, played on a Cricket field with cricket-style scoring.

A simple game with 2 key controls.

The primary objective is to achieve the Target Score set at the beginning of every game.

The Target is reached by scoring runs within the stipulated number of balls, based on the game format selected. Your skills are put to test while directing the balls inside the playing area in a bid to accumulate runs.
