Cricket Archive

Post by OP Tipping on Tue 10 Feb 2009, 15:25

I would like to say Cheers @ those boffins, nerds and shut-ins down at the Association of Cricket Statisticians & Historians for their work in compiling and making available the Cricket Archive.

http://acscricket.com/
http://www.cricketarchive.com/

They've got everything from the scorecards of matches played in 1776, to a full list of matches of any kind played by Sobers, (eg Trent Bridge Taverners v International Cavaliers 1968), Kenya's domestic Twenty20 competition scores...

Whereas a lot of the Afghanistan players have done time in Pakistan's domestic competition, Raees Ahmadzai (top scored for them in the recent match against Uganda) played in Sri Lanka's domestic comp in 2007. Kenneth Kamyuka was man of the match: the first formal match of his career was in the Africa U-19s, where Uganda made 355...etc

Heaps more useless rubbish than you can get from cricinfo.

It's great, it even documents matches like World Cup warm ups that cricinfo studiously ignored until 2003.

You can even search by ground. Including some pretty obscure venues.

BTW ... Raees Ahmadzai is 24 years old, but looks about 40.
