Well Pitched on Cricinfo!

Yes its true!

Well Pitched was mentioned on Cricinfo's surfer section today and I feel like this is one of our proudest moments.

I thought Reuters linking to us, a radio channel mentioning us, Prem Panicker referring to us, not once but several times, ICC blogrolling us, Cricket Blips ranking us at the top, and Linq giving us some awards were big achievements for Well Pitched.

With all due respect to the above, this mention on Cricinfo is definitely the biggest tick on the Well Pitched CV.

Cricinfo is like the bible for cricket fans across the world and I have followed the site since its inception.

To see your name or your blog's name in print on that website sure feels good.

None of this is ofcourse possible without you readers who keep us going.

Thank you all visitors, readers, commenters, recommenders, et all!

And thanks to Osman Samiuddin, the Pakistan editor of Cricinfo, for linking us over at Surfer.

How The Cricket Blogs Are Ranked

Ever heard of Cricket Blips?

I hadn't either, till Ankit of All Padded Up pointed me to it.

Cricket Blips is a type of blog aggregator. They've got all the latest cricket news and articles gathered from different websites and blogs collected in one space.

What Cricket Blips also does is rank cricket blogs - Here are the rankings.

It is no surprise that the King of Cricket Bloggers - Jrod of Cricket with Balls fame - is ranked number 1.

Well Pitched is ranked 2nd, while Homer, of "My two cents", is ranked 3rd.

The best part is that all 3 of us - Jrod, Homer, and I - are well ahead of Cricinfo, who are 4th.

Yeah baby!

BCC! is also there on number 5.

What is strange though is that the top tag for Cricket with Balls is Sachin Tendulkar. I don't think Jrod writes that much about Sachin. Does he?

Well Pitched's top tag is Kolkata Knight Riders. Maybe that has something to do with the Fake IPL Player.

Homer's is Jacob Oram! Really? Oram? Homer?

I'm not exactly sure how the blogs have been ranked and scored by Cricket Blips but it has something to do with linking. They explain it all here.

Is your blog there? If not, you can tell them to put it up. Check it out.
