Online play, new kits and faces

Online

• Play online: a friend by room code or invite link, or a quick match against anyone. Super Over, T5 or T10.
• Live 1v1 for the Ladder (T10) and the Weekend Series (T20): ranked, with your Ranked XI.
• Matches run directly between the two players' games, so there's less delay.
• Online goes up to T20. Leaving a match under way costs coins; leaving often keeps you out for a day or two.

Kits

• New shirts: the side's name across the chest, a big motif of its own, and the player's name and number on the back.
• Trousers in the side's colour.

Faces and looks

• My Career: make your player's face from a photo. It's read on your device and never saved or sent.
• Every player's face now starts from a real face's proportions, matched to his country and skin.
• Twelve haircuts, from a buzz to an afro, dreadlocks and cornrows. Beards and stubble look like growth, not paint.

Smaller fixes

• Stumps break where the ball hits them, and the bails fly.
• A caught or held ball sits in the palm, and the fingers close round it.
• Frame rate is 60 or 30, steady on high-refresh screens.
• New menu music.
