Brian Lara International Cricket 2005 is a sports simulation developed by Swordfish Studios and published by Codemasters, released across Xbox, PlayStation 2, and Windows PC on 21 July 2005 — the opening day of that year's Ashes series. Known in Australia and New Zealand under the alternative title Ricky Ponting Cricket, the game centers on the sport of cricket and represents Codemasters' entry into the genre during a particularly notable period for the sport. Its release date was deliberately aligned with one of cricket's most celebrated rivalries, reflecting the broader cultural moment surrounding the 2005 Ashes contest.
