sports website that provides a comprehensive archive of records and data for the game of cricket.[1] It was founded in 2003 by Philip Bailey and Peter Griffiths.[2]

The website contains data corresponding to 1.5 million players, 820,000 scorecards and 15,000 grounds, curated by cricket statistician Philip Bailey.[3][1]

Over the years, various cricket writers have recognized it as a leading online source for cricket statistics.[4][5][6] The Indian Express described it as a haven for obsessive cricket fans.[7] In 2017 it implemented a paywall (previously being free to access).
