Of course you want to know — When do I get it?

We strive at all times to get it to you sooner but here are some indications:

If we say In Stock, we dispatch same day (if ordered before 14:00 on a working day) and depending on where you stay it will be with you the next working day (Main Centres) or the next working day after that (Regional Areas). If you are in a remote area it may take an additional working day (a day longer than Regional).

If we say In Stock (You can also collect in cpt), the stock is available from our Cape Town warehouse and you can collect on the same working day if your payment has been authorised and you collect before 5pm.

If we say dispatched between X and Y days then it takes X to Y days to receive from a supplier and it will then be with you within a working day after dispatched (Main Centres) or the working day after that (Regional Areas). If you are in a remote area it may take an additional working day (a day longer than Regional Areas).

Imports are a best effort service, we strive to get it to you as soon as possible within the guidelines above but it's not always within our complete control so if something goes wrong we will let you know.

And then there's a Friday, sigh... Try order early on a Friday, we can then try our best to get it to you on the same day (Main centres), otherwise we will have to get it to you during the next week.

If this is all too confusing, call us on 0861 222 989 or send an e-mail to info@takealot.com. One of our friendly employees will get back to you pronto.

Product Reviews (2)

Neels, Kraaifontein. 31 January 2010

Still way too expensive :(

Besides, why put the word "Ashes" in the title if it contains ALL the teams and is not only an Australia-England focused game, and you can play limited overs games etc as well - not just test matches? What's wrong with just naming it "Cricket 2009" or something similar?

Also, it **doesn't work on Windows 7** and Codemasters still havn't bothered to release an official patch to fix that! I'm sorry, but I cannot accept that given the fact that Windows 7 beta and RC have been freely available for such a long time, a new game is released without being tested to ensure that it works with the operating system that would be sold with all new PCs and laptops shortly after the release...

If they lower the price by at least another R100 - to under R200, AND fix the Windows 7 problem I would consider buying it.

I love this game. I have always liked the Codemaster's cricket series, right from the first Brian Lara Cricket on PS1 to the Ashes 09.

After having played Ashes 09, there is no other cricket game that ranks with this one. It has only one problem. The other teams may have the correct stats and you can rename the players, but the kit isn't near authentic, which kind of takes away from the luster of the game.

That said, it is still the best cricket game going around. And the fact
that South African born Kevin Pietersen is on the cover makes it all
the more better.
