Default Cricket Curiosities

Unveiling my first look of my website Cricket Curiosities.

A big shout out must go to Agent Mufi-02. LOL! In the beta version, the original one back 2 years ago around 2015ish 2016 it had some lovely templates but static version. I lost all those images of extraordinary cricket facts collected from obscure tomes from UCI library and LA central library. Like 9 wickets all from first slip. Six consecutive lbws. Four in four. Argentinian cricketer and his century I think. They were brilliant. Unfortunately I lost them all.

So shoutout to mufi because during those static ones, he encouraged me on my layout. And he frikkin HATES me. :p so coming from a frenemy that's a huge and it rejuvenated my thing last night..

Here is an example of one.

Quote:
Cricketers and profession

A plethora of trade had their fair share of players in the past. These include a shoemaker, lace-makers, cutlers, bakers,
carpenters and wheel-wrights, tailors, an ostler, a keeper of livery stables, horse-breaker and trainer,
a silver-chaser, a print work engraver and calico printer, as well as pewter-pot maker.
So having lost all materials I decided to start from scratch and make a brand new with Square Space. Love their templates, the user-friendliness and the minimalist tradition et theme.

This time I am making them all a collection... I call it anthology.. that's a fancy schmancy word for you.. and they are all videos. It'd be hip, modern and appeal to mass viewers.

Without further ado *pulls curtain*

Sorry...

Sorry...

The curtain seems to have got lodged in the stool's leg... sorry... sorry... It's Bangladesh after all.. lol

good job Zee! I remember discussing with you about this back in the days. But never thought you would follow up. Glad to see unlike me, you are materializing your passion .

Is the "cat" (not our tigers who most occasion act as cat) dead or almost deadbeat?

Good approach

Lol thanks...although I don't think it is humanly possible to finish watching all the videos after the moment I posted it.

You know how I know? Because I haven't watched them either...

Zeeshoo bhaiya, I really liked this website too. A lot of interesting clips. You are founding a lot of websites! Very busy and super active man, and a very eccentric + eclectic writer too. Enjoyed them.

You should open an youtube account and upload the videos yourself, and then link it to the site. Otherwise some of these videos wil get taken down by the original uploaders and you will be left with a bunch of missing links.

You do inadvertently bring up great points. I wonder if I monetize the site, will I get in trouble for copyright breach?

I mean all I am doing is monetizing a site for selection of content and advertising my taste really. I am even minimal into interfering and using their titles.

But buddy, what you suggest would be downright copyright violation. And also, they won't take it down because many are legit sites like cricket.au and ecb cricket and our ever faithful trusty robebelinda.

Anyone knows the issue re: copyright? Frankly, I can live without making it a "business". But hey.. why not take a bite of the pie while at it right doing something I love?

And thanks Roey.

Dont' mess with cricket au obviously. but some of them are fan uploads, which will eventually get lost. Mirror, add a watermark, and upload them yourself. aint nothin to it, homeboy.

I got this T, besides... those vidoes are well established so as to knock them off protected via Fair Use (in may cases... albeit some got by by shady means.)

Bangladesh's first innings in this match also wasn't too long, and lasted only 45.4 overs. In total, they were bowled out twice in this match in only 451 balls, making it the second fewest balls they have lasted in a Test in which they have been bowled out twice. The fewest deliveries they have played in a Test is 430, which was against the same opposition in 2005-06.

Fewest Balls Played By B'desh In A Test*
