VR Cricket All Star: India's Virtual Cricket Revolution
What is VR Cricket All Star?
VR Cricket All Star isn't just a game—it's where India's cricket passion meets cutting-edge virtual reality. Launched in 2021 by Bangalore-based Desi VR Studios, this title lets you step into the boots of your favorite cricketers, swinging bats, bowling yorkers, and fielding like a pro—all from your living room.
Imagine standing at the crease of Eden Gardens, hearing 60,000 fans chant your name, or bowling the final over in a T20 final at Wankhede. That's the magic of VR Cricket All Star. The developers spent 3 years researching every detail, from the way light hits the pitch in Chennai to the sound of a leather ball hitting an SG bat.
"We wanted to create an experience that makes Indians say, 'Yeh toh bilkul asli lagta hai!'" (This feels totally real!)," says Ankit Mehta, lead designer. And they succeeded—from 12-year-olds in small towns to 50-year-olds reliving their gully cricket days, the game has united cricket lovers across India.
How to Play VR Cricket All Star
Forget button-mashing—VR Cricket All Star uses your body. With a VR headset, your hands become bat and ball. Swing your arm to hit a cover drive, bowl with a natural action, or dive to catch a flying boundary. It's cricket, but more real than any game before.
Batting: Feel Every Shot 🏏
Hold the VR controller like a bat (choose from MRF, SG, or SS brands). To hit a straight drive, step forward and swing straight. For a pull shot, wait for the short ball, shift your weight back, and swing across the line. The game tracks your timing, angle, and power—just like real cricket.
Pro tip: Indian players swear by "wrist work"—twist your wrist on contact for better control, especially for flicks and cuts. It's how Kohli hits those amazing boundaries, and it works here too!
Bowling: Deliver Like a Pro 🏹
Want to bowl like Bumrah? Run up (in place), swing your arm, and release with a snap of the wrist. For pace, bowl with a straight arm. For spin, twist your wrist as you release—off-spin, leg-spin, or even a doosra. The game measures your speed (up to 150kph!) and movement.
Leg-spin bowlers from Chennai recommend practicing the "carrom ball"—hold the controller like a carrom striker and flick your fingers. It's tricky, but unplayable once mastered!
Local Flavors: Made for India
VR Cricket All Star gets India—its languages, its stadiums, its love for gully cricket. That's why it's not just translated, but reimagined for every region.
Languages for Every Indian 🗣️
Play in 14 Indian languages, from Hindi and Punjabi to Tamil and Malayalam. Commentary feels like your local expert—Srikkanth in Tamil, Sidhu in Punjabi, or Aakash Chopra in Hindi. They even use regional slang: "Yeh shot toh full paisa vasool!" in Hindi, "Adhiradi six!" in Tamil.
Stadiums That Feel Like Home 🏟️
Play in 22 iconic grounds, each with unique details: the sea breeze at Wankhede, the red soil of Chepauk, the roar of Kolkata's Eden Gardens. Even small-town grounds like Rajkot and Indore are included—because cricket in India isn't just about big cities.
How Popular is VR Cricket All Star in India?
Cricket-crazy India has embraced VR Cricket All Star like no other game. Here's the scorecard:
Even in rural areas, where VR headsets are rare, the mobile version (with "Lite VR" using your phone's camera) has 36% of players. "My village in Bihar has no stadium, but I play for India in this game," says 17-year-old Ravi from Muzaffarpur.
What Indian Players Say
With a 4.8/5 rating from 2.5 million reviews, VR Cricket All Star has won hearts across India:
"Bahut zabardast! I hit a century against Australia in Wankhede—felt like I was actually there. My dad, who doesn't know VR, now asks to play every evening. Best ₹999 I spent!"
— Rohit, 27, Mumbai
"As a girl who loves cricket but never got to play much, this game is amazing. Tamil commentary makes it feel like home. Srikkanth sir's voice when I hit a six gives me goosebumps!"
— Priya, 21, Coimbatore
Indian Player Hacks & Tips
Indians know cricket best, and they've cracked VR Cricket All Star with these pro tips:
Gully Cricket Tricks That Work
From Mumbai's chawls to Delhi's mohallas, gully cricket skills translate perfectly. Try the "khulla shot" (open bat face) for cheeky fours behind the wicket, or bowl "doble" (slow delivery) to confuse batsmen.
Playing Spin on Indian Pitches
Against spinners, step out of your crease like Dravid—reduces turn. Chennai players swear by this: "Watch the hand, not the ball. You'll see if it's an offie or leggie early!"
Events: Celebrating Cricket & India
VR Cricket All Star joins India's festivals and cricket seasons with special events:
Diwali Cricket Carnival
Stadiums lit with diyas, special kurta kits, and "Lakshmi Cup" tournament. Hit a six, and fireworks light up the sky—pure magic with family!
