There's a lot of similarity between the love of obscure weather
records and the love of obscure cricket records. There's always
someone who can say when the last time was that someone
scored a century at Trent Bridge in a day when batting at number
8 after having taken 5 for 30 - or some other such obscure record.

Perhaps that's why I see so many people on here who are also familiar to
me from uk.sport.cricket


It's the stats isn't it?
Some interests by their very nature attract more statistical analysis
than others. So people could be interested in very different things
at least partially for that reason.

Like the weather and the charts for example.


It's definitely the statistical aspects of each, that appeal to me.


Yes, I remember you saying that and had you in mind when I posted
