King was the main force in shaping the site, getting volunteers to contribute scorecards and other data, organising registration for users, and trying to cut deals with the ICC and national boards: Cricinfo was the official site of the 1996 World Cup and the 1997 ICC Trophy, and hosted several boards' official sites. King registered Cricinfo as a privately owned company in the UK in 1996.
