Are statistics counted for a player in a match abandoned before toss?

I imagine if a game is being played and rain stops it, and it eventually leads to an abandonment, the player who's batting on 12* has those twelve runs counted in his career stats. But if a match is abandoned before the coin toss, does his career match count go from 1 to 2?

no, i think if the match is abandoned without a ball bowled, then it doesnt count towards career matches played

Yeah cause the match never happened. Just need one ball bowled for it to count though

Thanking God that Gambhir didn't suggest his name as bowling coach!

I liked the older graphics tbh. The ones used in 1996, with a translucent background- one could see the scorebox in either the right/left of the screen back then.



Australia continued these graphics for a considerably long amount of time.


The last memory of the old box was in the 2015 World Cup, post which it disappeared permanently.



Cricket broadcast was much cleaner back in the day. In fact, even now, Sky has a cleaner broadcast, doesnt overlay with too many ads, unlike Star Sports.

Welcome to the Champions Cup. Mubasir Khan with his List A bowling avg of 45 doing quite well while Shadab and Usama struggle.

Big day yesterday! We all missed it!

if NZ lose their last 12 wickets for less than 170 runs they'll have the second largest innings defeat ever

Captaincy Riddance in the last 24 hours- Babar Azam and Tim Southee. Good decisions by both for the betterment of their team. NZ have Latham in waiting, while he was found out at times during CWC 2023, I still feel he is their best bet for the time being. Pakistan is going to have a challenge in terms of who can be made captain here.

Root moves past Cook. 12k runs and counting. There's no reason why he can't end up going past SRT.

What surprised me though is that Kohli is sitting on just 8.8k runs. For a person like him, seems like a bit of a dampener.
