Being a soppy, nostaligic, stuck-in the 90s lad, I was intrigued by this 'World Cup Cricket' game. Not one I've had the pleasure of. Went on eBay and found this ----> http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VINTAGE-1993-WORLD-CUP-CRICKET-GAME-BY-PETER-PAN-PLAYTHINGS-IN-GOOD-CONDITION-/221836852608?hash=item33a681bd80 The game is missing the rules (and the wickets !!) but this helpful ebayer describes the rules to would-be buyers....

 

This is a good condition vintage World Cup Cricket game from 1993 by Peter Pan Playthings.

The game is missing the instructions, wicket and the scoring sheets but comes with all other parts including THREE balls. You can easily pick up a spare wicket online or make your own from card, a la Blue Peter. The rules should be pretty simple for anyone who knows what cricket is.

You have two sides, one out in the field and one in. Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out. When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side that's been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out.
When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who stay out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have been out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game
Box has some signs of storage wear and is in average condition for its age.
Happy to answer any questions.
UK bidders and UK postage only.
