not sure about the cricinfo revamp

It's awful. Can think of at least 10 things wrong with it.

[Durhamfootman]

I'm hating it

but then I always do

much harder to score FL's

[Arthur Crabtree]

Yes, it's horrible.

yeah not having the panel on the right hand side with all the days games isn't very user friendly, the top bar needs work to make it better

[Durhamfootman]

the full scorecard is much bigger, so I have to do a lot more scrolling up and down to get the same info

[dan08]

Can't look at the basic scorecard and commentary at the same time. Also can't even see what's happening ball-by-ball without the 'runs required/balls remaining' line going off screen.

[Arthur Crabtree]

I'd guess it's intended to make more sense on your phone. Which I won't be using.

I suppose it is fair to say that I , for one , always dislike change in a familiar online site...but it does seem that too many organizations can't resist messing around with something that basically works very well.

I will see if it grows on me : but my initial reaction is similar to others above - I hate it.

As Arthur says , it is probably phone-friendly. The modern world , I guess.

Nope. The phone app is terrible.

Anyone seen cricket archive is charging subs now

[dan08]

On the app, I couldn't even find the scorecard of a match that occurred today. Had to go on the full website just to find it.

[sussexpob]

Yep. Impossible to find match scores, having been away a lot I have lost patience and simply haven't followed cc this year because of it

[Arthur Crabtree]

I use BBC for live CC updates anyway. Just use cricinfo for international cricket for the commentary.

[rich1uk]

my AV checker is blocking parts of the new cricinfo site as "potentially harmful"

didn't realise it checked things that could make your eyes bleed

[andy]

cant stand the new layout..its horrific

[Durhamfootman]

one particularly annoying feature is the scorecard list across the top. I can set it to show T20 blast, but as soon as i click on a match, the bar at the top reverts immediately back to the SL/Ind match which effectively means I have to reset the top bar every time I do something

It really is extraordinarily poor

I'd revert to the beeb website when scoring FL's, but that isn't very FL scorer friendly either
