This latest release of NV Play Cricket is the culmination of many months of development work across the whole NV Play platform. This work includes infrastructure changes, performance enhancements, security improvements, and technology upgrades to support the ever-growing usage of the NV Play platform around the world. This usage is expected to increase even further as NV Play deepens its involvement with existing customers and enters new markets. The refreshed platform will also allow greater flexibility for users of all types and levels of cricket to get exactly what they need, when they need it, from the NV Play platform. While these various and vast platform changes will not be visible for most users, we are pleased to confirm that this release does also include the following fixes and features.
