Guys, something a bit different here. I am helping a programmer produce a computer simulation of test cricket. Its along the lines of the game you use for your leagues on this forum, but a lot more in depth and you can "watch" the action unfold ball by ball with TMS/cricinfo style commentary.
The game is about 75% complete but the programmer wants to add a bit more flavour to the players than just their averages by inputting stuff about their style of batting, bowling and any specialist field positions.
I have spread sheets of players through the decades and my task is to fill in whatever I can find on test players since WW2. Obviously we are not expecting to profile every single player but will take any info we can get.
So I wondered if anyone would be willing to spare a couple of hours putting some notes and stuff on the spreadsheet if you know about players? Maybe you specialise in current players, or ones from the 80s, or just Indian ones? But any help would be hugely appreciated and I thought this would be good place to ask!
Thanks for reading and hope to hear from a few of you, cheers!
