Online cricket manager game
Description
From the Pavilion, or "FTP" is a free Internet browser-based cricket management game. It is one of the fastest growing online games, boasting a rapidly growing member base. During a match, commentary, graphs and scorecards are displayed for both teams, adding that extra bit of realism when playing.
You make the critical decisions that will ultimately affect the success of your club. You are in control, selecting players for each match, assigning batting and bowling orders, supervising training programs, upgrading your stadium and wheeling and dealing on the transfer market.
Then, on match days, you then have the option of watching the action via live commentary. You are able to experience every wicket, run and near miss unfold as it happens.
The players in From The Pavilion are fictional and exist only in the game. They all have a skill set of Batting, Bowling, Technique, Power, Fielding, Keeping, Endurance, Captaincy, Experience and Form. Each skill is rated on a scale of Atrocious to Legendary, and the ratings of all skills combine to provide the player with a rating and a weekly wage which is roughly representational of their skill level.
Players train every week in their respective senior or youth academies and the area each player trains in is set by the user on a weekly basis. As a player invests money into their academy its level increases in proportion to the amount invested, with respect to the national academy investment average. Players in the Youth Academy train faster then those in the Senior Academy, however once players reach 19 years of age they will receive no benefit from training at all until promoted into the Senior Academy.
As a player plays a game they fatigue with every ball faced, bowled, fielded or captained. Energy can only be recovered by 2 ways, at the end of every day the player recovers a little, or resting the player from training for the week will also allow him to gain some extra energy. Any player playing on less the "Rested" fatigue will have a reduction in skills, making control of fatigue a vital part of the game.
Each team has a ground (members can name theirs) with a starting capacity of 5000 and can be expanded. The pitch type can be changed for each type of game (SOD, T20, YOD) and each pitch type has an advantage associated with it, from a hard pitch advantaging batters to a crumbling or uneven pitch giving spin or seam bowlers the upper hand. Each country has a particular weather condition for a given day which cannot be influenced by any user. Each weather pattern also affects the fatigue players accrue during the game, a hot day will make it harder for players to perform and result in faster energy lost.
For each match, orders for each team (entered 30min prior to the toss) are entered, giving players orders from Defensive to Aggressive and setting a teams Captain, Wicket-Keeper and Bowling order.
From The Pavilion also has a transfer market, where players can be auctioned off to the highest bidder. It costs $1000 to list a player on the market and the listing will remain for 72 hours

No other game comes near.
I love it
ADDICTED!
Try it and you will love it
really addicted
I recommends to all cricket lovers........
The youth team is also an enjoyable aspect of the game. Effectively, you are in charge of 2 teams.
In a way, it is simple but there's also a lot to it if you fully want to master it.
For me, the only downside is 3 matches in a week and no First-Class matches. I'd personally like a little more, but I guess 3 games in a week is a happy medium between those who play a lot and those who don't get to spend too much time online.
All-in-all, an excellent and extremly addictive online game.
Can provide hours and hours of fun completly free of charge!
About some people not being friendly I think 1 or 2 people just get a little in patient when new players don't now the rules.but most of the guys are good people.
1 negative is that you have got to been playing the game for 3 years to be half decent at it but it is really good fun.
Truly an amazing game
Its almost real with the 'live' commentary, and on the right side of your screen you also get to see how the other 6 team from your league are performing for a top spot.
Lovely mentor program for newbie, and also lots of importance given to members about sharing their thoughts, views, & suggestion to further keep improving the already perfect game. :)
Kudos to Ash & From The Pavilion Team!!!
Many thanks to ash and everyone involved to give us this brilliant game:)
More realistic training and cleaner interface too.
I wished it incorporate Test matches though.

This comment line makes no logical sense.
in the previous 12 months they have created not 1, but 2 new competitions, altered the ageing of players, introduced a new set of international matches and provided more support for new players....
Seems like this player may not be happy about 1 change and has decided to make 1 negative review compared to 0 positives after 7 years
I can understand that that non-members were dissapointed when choice of nationality was taken away but bills have to paid and Crowfan has done a fantastic job of saving a wonderful game that was in danger of dissapearing without notice.
I personally don't mind limiting Nationality for free to play users as most of my pulls are from associate nations which I feel helps balancing available talent pool for overall Nat scenario
There are regular friendly series like PSL as well. Discord community is pretty active too
