Browser Game Pick: Top Spinner (Benzido)
Top Spinner is a new physics-based action game which involves using a bat to keep balls headed your way from touching the stumps. Strike rate is calculated by dividing the points you've acquired with the number of balls you've managed to hit out of the area. Getting balls to touch a high risk zone awards more runs.

I spent about half an hour playing this earlier today. Simple, but fun.

Ahaha, I found it hilarious how you can actually get the backward target zones.

The poor state of cricket pitches these days is cause for concern.
This one hasn't even been mown

I think this would be a lot more fun if it wasn't restricted the rules, such as the hit zones and the way the player moves. Well, if it wasn't cricket, that is. Because the physics are much fun.
I still had a lot more fun with "Pluto strikes back" :D

Thanks for the post, Tim.
@GCN: Hahaha, yeah I figured that might be a problem. Maybe I'll do a conversion where you're a samurai trying to cut down sparrows on the wing.

It would be so much better if I could turn off the horrible 'NOOOO' losing sound effect... it's actually putting me off playing the game any more completely which is sad because it's quite fun..
