WELCOME TO MY NEW WEBSITE THAT WILL ATTEMPT TO CHRONICLE THE GOINGS-ON IN THE WORLD OF CRICKET BEYOND THE 12 TEST PLAYING NATIONS.
IN THIS SITE YOU WILL FIND MY UNIQUE CRICKET RANKINGS WHICH COVERS BOTH ODI AND T/20 MATCHES UPDATED ON A MONTHLY BASIS, AS WELL AS A LATEST NEWS AND MY PREDICTIONS FOR FUTURE GAMES.
I ALSO PRODUCE A COMBINED ONE DAY RANKINGS TABLE COVERING ALL 112 COUNTRIES KNOWN TO HAVE PLAYED INTERNATIONAL CRICKET DURING THE 4 YEAR CYCLE OF THESE TABLES.
MY TABLES ARE UNIQUE AS THEY NOT ONLY RATE THE RESULTS OF MATCHES BUT ALSO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT :-
1) STRENGTH OF OPPOSITION,
2) MARGIN OF VICTORY,
3) HOW RECENT THE RESULT (eg VICTORY IN 2016 IS WORTH 5 TIMES ONE IN 2012),
4) IMPORTANCE OF TOURNAMENT.
THIS, I BELIEVE, MAKES THEM MORE ACCURATE THAN THE OFFICIAL ICC CRICKET RANKINGS TABLE.
I HAVE BEEN REFINING THESE TABLES EVER SINCE I FIRST GOT THE IDEA IN 2001 FOLLOWING SCOTLAND’S FAILURE TO QUALIFY FOR THE 2003 WORLD CUP DUE TO LOSING TO CANADA IN THE PLAYOFF (I FELT THAT SCOTLAND WERE THE BETTER SIDE AND SET OUT TO PROVE IT THUS GIVING BIRTH TO THESE TABLES!). I NOW FEEL THAT I HAVE GOT THE FORMAT RIGHT BUT WILL WELCOME SUGGESTIONS FOR POSSIBLE IMPROVEMENTS.
ALTHOUGH THE PRIME REASON FOR THIS WEBSITE IS TO SHOWCASE MY RANKINGS TABLES, I ALSO WANT IT TO BE A SOURCE OF INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT IS HAPPENING IN NON TEST NATIONS. TO THAT END, I HAVE ATTACHED A LINK TO MARK CRUIKSHANK’S EXCELLENT “ROONBA” SITE WHICH GIVES BOTH RESULTS AND FORTHCOMING FIXTURES FOR ALL COUNTRIES.
IF YOU SCROLL DOWN, YOU WILL FIND MY LATEST COMBINED ODI AND T/20 QUARTERLY RANKINGS OR CLICK ON THE LINK ON THE RIGHT TO GET THE LATEST ODI T/20 AND TEST/MULTI-DAY TABLES.
FINALLY, IF YOU HAVE ANY NEWS RE FORTHCOMING FIXTURES FOR YOUR COUNTRY, THEN PLEASE CLICK ON THE CONTACT ME LINK ON THE RIGHT. (COMMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS ALSO WELCOME)
