  Cricinfo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cricinfo is the largest cricket-related website and one of the largest websites in the world with more than 20 million users.
Cricinfo (originally CricInfo) was launched in 1993 by Simon King, a British researcher at the University of Minnesota, and others and grew thanks to the help of students and researchers at universities around the world.
Cricinfo's continued growth made it one of the most attractive sites for investors at the end of the 1990s and in 2000 it received $37 million of Satyam Infoway shares in return for a 25 per cent stake in the company - in 1999 it was valued at around $100 million.
