James Swinbanks of GameSpot rated the game 5/10, stating that "Big Bash 's bugs and glitches make it hard to make a lasting impression". Shaun Prescott of PC Gamer said the game "sounds a bit like Mario Kart, but with cricket", stating that "if you're after a lighthearted approach to cricket I don't think there's much out there. Until now."
