1. Cricket is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy (Stephen Fry)
2. FOOTBALL offers the world clichés; RUGBY produces facial deformity; HOCKEY provides an acceptable outlet for psychotic violence; CRICKET alone breeds myths. More quotes here.
| 1. | Catch and drop data only recorded since 1999 |
| 2. | Catch data from 1999 only found in 1 table for whole season - data applied to varying games through season and so not accurate on a match level |
| 3. | Individual scorebook and final total amounts often do not match - extras are usually amended to meet final quoted total though anomalies may still exist |
| 4. | 2 innings games are recorded as two single innings matches - this will affect the highest victories etc but shouldn't affect player data such as appearances etc |
| 5. | Captains Day matches are not recorded and are not used for average etc calculations |
| 6. | Data is incomplete in some places, often not including match results or, more frequently, the overs faced by Salix |
| 7. | Player data (especially names) may be incomplete or duplicate |
| 8. | Minimum 5 appearances needed to appear in Best Player list |
| 9. | Algorithm used to calculate Best Player is as follows: ( ( batting ave points + batting best score points + batting total runs points ) * 2/3 ) + ( ( bowling ave points + bowling SR points + bowling econ points + bowling best figures points ) * 2/4 ) = Best Player Points |
| 10. | Points scored are obtained by looking at the top 100 of each of the 7 areas above and converting your position into points (e.g. top of the list = 100 points, 33rd on the list = 68 points and so on) with no points for being outside the top 100. The batting and bowling points are averaged so that the the ratio of batting to bowling is 1:1 |
