This game is the follow-up to ''[[Brian Lara Cricket '99]]'' (also known as ''Shane Warne Cricket '99'' in Australia and New Zealand). It contains the 2003 [[Cricket World Cup]] in Africa and the 2004 [[ICC Champions Trophy]]. These two competitions are licensed by the [[International Cricket Council]] (ICC) and contain official player names, faces, kits, badges and sponsors. All other modes are unofficial as the rights for these belong to [[EA Sports]] and therefore some players and kits are made up; for example [[Graham Thorpe]] becomes "G Thrip" and [[Shane Warne]] becomes "S Worde". The only correct names in these modes are [[Brian Lara]] himself, (shown as "B Lara"), and Australian Captain [[Ricky Ponting]] (similarly shown as R Ponting).<ref>Although in the ICC events the names of the players are spelled correctly.</ref> The game is also first to include licensed bats such as the Kookaburra Diablo and the GM Purist. The game takes the perspective of the normal cricket TV coverage, other views and displays in the game also try to emulate TV coverage of cricket, for example [[Hawk-Eye]], an electronic system used to track [[cricket ball]]s as they are bowled is featured in the game.[[Image:BLIC-2005-Hawkeye.jpg|thumb|left|175px|The [[Hawk-Eye]] system used in the game]] |
