Another year has come and gone in the ongoing tale of the Popped Collars/GG indoor cricket team. Time to have a look at the stats for the year 2018.
This is the first of a 3-part blog looking at stats from 2018. Today we are doing a quick recap of the year with some basic team stats. Part 2 will cover individual stats for the year, and part 3 will look at some of the records that were broken in 2018.
It's the semi-final. GG vs Von Hinton. The story of the confusion and controversy surrounding the finish to this game is recorded here for posterity.
Last week founding team member Gareth "G" Edwards played his final game before taking a long (but temporary, of course) break. Today, PoppedStats presents a brief tribute as we look back at some highlights of his grand career (so far).
A new era of indoor cricket has begun. Six-ball overs have started to become the norm, and the change of playing conditions has found its way to Kaleen. Chances are that the Popped Collars have played their final ever match with eight-ball-overs. As far as stats goes this poses some interesting questions. These questions will be pondered, and in the coming weeks PoppedStats will be updated to incorporate a solution to these questions. In the meantime, here's an old-fashioned blog.
Three things this week. A fixed page (player rankings), a new page (partnership stats), and a brief old-school stats blog about some stuff that's happened in the last few weeks.
Today's update sees the addition of a page dedicated to milestones.
The new page lists what milestones are coming up (which was already available on the home page anyway), and also shows you what milestones have been passed in recent matches. You can also select a milestone to see more details about it - which players have previously reached the mark the quickest, who are the next in line to reach the mark, and how quickly those upcoming players have got to their current state.
1. Last Thursday (26th) was the first anniversary of poppedstats.com coming online.
2. There is still a bunch of stuff that I wanted to have on the site when it was first created.
3. I've unfortunately had a lot of non-indoor-cricket time on my hands lately.
Together, these things make "now" the perfect time to make some updates. So, for each of the next handful of weeks there will be one new or updated page for you to check out!
