With Cricket having a mass following its obvious that cricket based websites will be popular in India...& I dare say that Cricinfo.com is on top of the pile (for me at least).I visit this site daily....sometimes more than once a day its a one stop place for all that a cricket buff needs... News....Live scores..statistics..columns...contests...even sections on womens cricket.. Cricinfo's live coverage includes ball by ball description updates ( very useful if u dont have access to a TV ) of all international matches...it even has all the scorecards from domestic matches in Uk,Australia,India... its database has all the stats & records to send stats lovers into a tizzy...surely a more comprehensive record of all cricket matches will be hard to find.. Cricinfo also has some regular columns...My favourite is 'Ask Steven', where editor Steven Lynch answers all trivia based questions sent in by readers...There are also well written articles from time to time which dont mince words when criticising something that they dont agree with... Each country has its own mini site..where cricket news,scorecards relating to that country is featured.. however Cricinfo.com also has scope for improvement....the design is quite ordinary.Nothing eye catching about it. They could also include a forum to help cricket fans interact with each other. But these are minor flaws in what is otherwise a terrific site...so go ahead & try it out..I'm sure u will learn something new .....Did you know Bermuda just qualified for the 2007 World Cup?
