WATCH - Elgar and AB de Villiers' partnership (Indian subcontinent and UAE only)

WATCH - All of South Africa's wickets (Indian subcontinent and UAE only)

WATCH - 18.4 overs, did South Africa miss reviewing a certain wicket? (Indian subcontinent and UAE only)

The only real utility it had, the uptodate stats on all players in a match on one page, is gone.

Hardly look at it these days.

Yeah, I only use the site for it's Statsguru facility. It became pus when they formatted the site to suit mobile phones. And even that is junk.

The amount of times since the update I've clicked on something and seen "sorry, something went wrong".

I still find it the best for ball by ball but like lardbucket I miss the live stats page during a match.

Yeah, career stats and also series stats. I can't find it. When I click on the 'statistics' link all I see are control stats and where the bowlers have been pitching the ball.

Yeah, for the players currently batting and bowling. What I mean is the page that shows series and career stats for all the players involved in the match.

Regarding the subcontinent only part. That's because ESPN and their partner channel have the rights for this series in India (along with Australian, Sri Lankan, Pakistani, and West Indian series)

Ah, didn't realise that. I hardly looked at it for a while after the update so must have missed it.

IIRC the series stats were always a bit on the shit side as they only showed the players involved in that match

Another thing I miss is when viewing historical scorecards there is no longer a link to the Wisden Almanack report. Always enjoyed reading them.
