This early board game contained eleven Britains cricketers (never catalogued by Britains, but utilising the Britains Engine Driver casting) and a cricket ball, the object being to move the ball across the board avoiding the fielders placed by one's opponent in order to achieve the highest score.

This is the only known surviving example of this game.
