I was looking back at some old test matches and couldn't even find the scorecards. Not sure if i was missing something or if they still haven't entered all the data? Take this test for example - http://www.espncricinfo.com/series/1647 ... we-1992-93

A very good example of this rubbish that someone has been paid to produce, I reckon a 2 year old goat with learning difficulties could do better, I know it's probably a controversial thing to say but maybe even watermelon and HHM would come up with something more intelligible. Naturally cricinfo will do absolutely zero to change this abortion as they won't admit to their massive foul up, I for one won't even be attempting to use it in future as I get easily bored looking at adverts for products I don't want

Can ZCF members complain to cricinfo about the lack of a link to career stats on scorecards? It is driving me nuts. That is all.

Really disappointing. Can't even find the news section? And the stats on the mobile pages are useless unless you are a house hold name. I started a survey thinking I might be able to air my grievances and all I got was questions on my favourite fast food. 🤔

Cricinfo is rubbish now. It's been going downhill for years, but I used to still read it everyday and browse all sorts of articles. Now it's too hard to even find articles.

There's too many adverts and video links now. I can't stand it. I can't even any domestic games. Massively disappointing.

What's most annoying is that articles merge which one another. The 'older' version you could click on an article and scroll down to the comments; now it just jumps to the next article which could be completely unrelated. Needs sorting, or at least made easier to navigate.

Just spent about 30 minutes navigating cricinfo. It really is awful and they have done little to improve the site since the latest re-design. So many ads!!!
