Cricket/Expert Profile
Expertise
I can answer questions about Cricket History, the Laws of Cricket, Test/ ODI records, rare or quirky occurences and other such things. I guess I can take a crack at anything that can be classified as "Cricket Trivia".
Experience in the area
I have been following cricket for close to 20 years and I run a Cricket Trivia website CricTrivia.com. This site is the number 1 on the list when you search for Cricket Trivia on Google and is one of only 11 "site listings" on Yahoo's Cricket page. (http://dir.yahoo.com/Recreation/Sports/Cricket/)
Publications
A link to an article on my website (CricTrivia.com) has appeared on Cricinfo in the past.
Awards and Honors
I have participated in, won and even hosted Sports and Cricket quizzes at the school, college and corporate level.
