STBR Stats

Indeed, I have been a bit slack on the ol' stats recently. I've always been thinking that I need to build the X-treme Stats program more and more, but doing that takes a lot of time, which I don't usually have. So I've decided to take a new approach. I will still endeavor to upgrade the program when I can, but I will also be handing out all sorts of interesting numbers here, inspired by events and achievements in recent games, recent records, or whatever other random things I feel like looking at for the week.

After getting a bit behind the times over the change-of-season, I've now updated my database with all the Popped Collars matches. The GG team info is still in the form of a pile of scorecards on my desk at the moment. So for the time being, stats will only come from the original team.

If you still want to use the X-treme Stats program, I've uploaded the latest data file. So you can still check out your up-to-date graphs and basic stats. See the link at the top right of the blog.

For now, I shall set to work compiling my first batch of awesome stats, facts and lists for you, which shall appear in the coming days.

And just like Steven, from at the CricInfo website, feel free to send me your Popped Collars related questions.

Dear Popped Collars,
The stats are here, chaps.

Although I initially thought it would be good to email them out, all my email accounts don't let me send 'exe' files. Even if they're in a zip file. Even if I rename them from 'exe' to something weird like 'xav' or something innocent sounding like 'doc'... the email knows!!!
So I put the file on the web.
I also could send you the link to the file to download. Problem with that is that most of the email addresses I have for you are work ones. So you might not be able to go get it anyway. Or not be able to run it if you do get it. Who knows what strange security things work-places like to implement.
Then I was going to make a web-site. But decided a blog was quicker and easier to make. So here it is... the Popped Collars Indoor Cricket Stats Blog.
Awesome!
