Richards, Dave

When he was the CEO of the ICC, Richards played a big part in persuading cricket boards around the world to host their official websites on Cricinfo. It began in October 1996, when Simon King clinched the deal with the Zimbabwe and South Africa boards, and over the next five years, Cricinfo hosted the official homepages of eight Test-playing countries. =====

Round Table

Occasional audio features were a part of the site from the early days but the plunge into podcasts - which went on to grow into today's Video and Audio section - came in 2006, with Round Table, a panel-discussion show anchored by Sanjay Manjrekar. The first episode featured Manjrekar, Ian Chappell and Tony Greig discussing ball-tampering. =====

Records

The home of cricket records on the internet, the Records section on ESPNcricinfo spans accomplishments in Tests, one-dayers, T20, first-class, List A, Under-19, and minor cricket. Each international team has its own listings page, as does each ground, each calendar year, and each major series/tournament. Which wicketkeepers have conceded the most byes in a Test innings? Who has taken the most catches by a substitute in an ODI? Want to know if anyone has scored 62 runs in one over in a cricket match? Look no further.
