What it does
On reveal: If an enemy card was revealed here earlier this round, +2 Power to this card.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 4 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Media cards broadcast Power to your other lanes.
The site, in 1993
A cricket-only news site with live scorecards and StatsGuru, a database of matches and players going back to the 18th century.
Simon King conceived it in 1993, in a form that pre-dated the web. Wisden took a majority stake in 2003 and ESPN bought it in 2007. In June 2026 it announced a rename back to Cricinfo.
Pioneer era, up to 1994. Grey pages, blue links and a browser called Mosaic. Images were optional. So was colour.
The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
