Play Brian Lara Cricket 96 (March 1996) Online
You smack boundaries with Lara’s smooth swing, then sweat as the AI batsmen punish your lazy bowling—those 90s animations still feel surprisingly sharp.
Man, Brian Lara Cricket 96 was something else back in the day. I remember popping that cartridge into my Mega Drive and being blown away by how alive it felt—the crowd noise, the way the ball actually had weight when you bowled, and Lara’s signature stance staring you down. It wasn’t trying to be a simulator, just pure arcade cricket where timing a perfect cover drive felt like cracking a home run.
The AI could be brutal if you picked a tough opponent, but in a good way—none of that rubber-banding nonsense. You’d get smoked if you kept bowling the same delivery twice. And the animations? For 1996, seeing the keeper dive for a catch or the umpire actually raising his finger was borderline revolutionary.
Still holds up if you dust off the old console. Just don’t blame me when you lose three hours to "one more Test match."
