Hi folks - got a Play-Cricket question for any of you club admins out there. Does anyone know if there's a simple way to collate or access club records? Highest scores, most runs in a season etc. One player at my club is in with a good shout of breaking our record for league runs in a season and it got me thinking if there was an easier way to check stuff like that without having to go through manually. Can't find anything poking around on the support site, anyone done it before?

Slightly time-consuming but within statistics filter, through every year you're able to access, should only take 5 mins

If you're a Site Admin, you can download raw data in the backend into CSV. It's limited by season, so you would have to download a spreadsheet per season and then combine them. But probably easiest way I think. There's help here: https://play-cricket.ecb.co.uk/hc/en-us/articles/115005102129-Exporting-Player-Statistics

Then it's fairly simple to work out in Excel previous records and compare. Let me know if you need any help at that stage.

On another note - I have toyed with the idea of offering standard dashboards and stuff to clubs based on their play-cricket stats (annoyingly there is no API, so the best way of accessing data is via that method above). But you get enough there to offer player level dashboarding, club analysis, opposition analysis, could overlay weather stats etc to see how you do in certain conditions. I'm a bit of a saddo, plus it overlaps with my current job. But imagine bringing professional level analysis to amateurs. We know cricketers are stattos.

Play cricket scorer Pro and the website DO have API's.. it's kinda how it works (and SQL etc)... Your issue is getting their permission as they won't like someone taking what they see as their work and converting it into something else.

Sadly, the ECB dictate everyone uses play cricket so it's a catch 22.. you can't use their stuff but you HAVE to use their stuff....

If you work this out would be very interested to hear about it, we don't use Playcricket in Scotland but I've been uploading our scorecards manually going back to 2012 so far to offer a proper record of club stats to the club badgers.
