The international cricket’s governing body, International Cricket Council (ICC) has released the first pack of the ICC Crictos in collaboration with FanCraze. Crictos gives an opportunity to the fans to collect and trade some iconic cricket moments from a range of ICC events.
From the 2015 and 2019 editions of the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup, a total of 75 unforgettable moments have been featured. Cricket enthusiasts can start owning their Crictos collection with one of three packs: a Base Pack, a Booster Pack and a Hotshots Pack. The fans can have the opportunity to own some of the most popular wickets, catches and shots in international cricket.
The collectibles’ log will keep on extending and will consist of some memorable moments from past ICC Men’s and Women’s events along with some talked about moments created in future events. The amount of Crictos will differ by pack-type and Crictos will defer in their rarity across different tiers. The four tiers include Common, Rare, Epic and Legendary.
On the release of the first packs of ICC Crictos, the ICC Head of Digital, Finn Bradshaw, said: “We are so excited to drop our first packs of Crictos today which is a unique opportunity for fans to own and be part of historic moments in cricket. Crictos will be a digital record of those moments cricket fans love, and enable them to collect these legendary video highlights.
“This Beta launch is our first step into the cricket metaverse and those lucky enough to be part of it can start their Crictos collection today and shortly start growing it by trading on the peer-to-peer marketplace through our partners FanCraze before we move to a full launch in the near future.”
FanCraze and ICC announced the collaboration earlier this month. The subsidiary firm of Faze Technologies, FanCraze has signed several popular cricketers from the international circuit: Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Ravichandran Ashwin, Yuzvendra Chahal, Shikhar Dhawan, Muthiah Muralidaran and Andre Russell.
