Doodle Cricket is a simple mini cricket game released by Google as a Google Doodle in 2017 to celebrate the ICC Champions Trophy. The game features a cute cartoon style where you control a cheerful batter and try to score as many runs as possible before getting out.
Pay close attention to how the opponent throws the ball, including its motion and speed. Reading the rhythm helps you predict the perfect moment to swing instead of reacting too early.
Don’t swing as soon as the ball is released. Wait until it hits the ground and bounces, this is the best moment to make a more accurate and controlled shot.
A single well-timed click can create a clean hit and score effectively. Mistime it, and you may miss the ball or get out instantly.
As you keep hitting successfully, your score increases, but the ball speed also gets faster. Staying calm and keeping a steady rhythm is key to extending your streak.

The most common mistake is hitting before the ball bounces.
As the speed increases, stay calm and focus on timing.
Audio can help you judge the timing more accurately.
You don’t need to hit every ball—focus on easier, controlled hits.
Doodle Cricket is a small but highly addictive game—jump in now and see how far you can push your high score!
