Where Are Cricket 24 Save Files Located?
Cricket 24 saves into Windows Saved Games, not Documents or AppData, with Steam Cloud and Xbox Cloud on top.
Last updated
Cricket 24 follows the Big Ant convention of saving into the Windows Saved Games folder, in a folder plainly called Cricket 24. Career progress, custom players and Academy creations all live there as .sav files.
Both Steam Cloud and Xbox Cloud sync this game, so a career normally follows your account between machines. The sync only covers the save files themselves. Downloaded Academy content sometimes needs a fresh pull on a new install, so check the Academy hub if teams look missing after migrating.

Career and custom content as .sav files. Back up the whole folder before long Test series, since one corrupt file can take a season with it.

Proton prefix for Steam Deck and Linux desktops, app ID 2358260. Proton mirrors the Saved Games folder just like Windows.
Frequently asked questions
Does Cricket 24 use Steam Cloud?
Yes, plus Xbox Cloud on the Microsoft Store build. Cloud covers saves, but Academy downloads may need re-syncing manually on a fresh install.
How do I back up a Cricket 24 career?
Copy the Cricket 24 folder from Saved Games elsewhere. Each career is a separate .sav, so you can archive finished seasons without touching the active one.
