The concept for International Cricket Captain was the idea of Chris Child, who programmed the original game engine as a university project. The most recent version of the game is Cricket Captain 2020. It rose to popularity in 1998, following the release of the first PC-based game in the series. Cricket Captain, formerly International Cricket Captain, is a series of cricket management video games by Empire Interactive, and by Childish Things since International Cricket Captain 2009, before which Empire went into administration.
