Know cricket. Love cricket. Think cricket. Think Googly!

To be honest, I am not a great fan of online cricket games or for the current craze for fantasy cricket teams etc., In addition if the owner of the website, in this case Alan Drummond, describes his website ‘ThinkGoogly’ as “ a free cricket quiz with a difference” you can be sure that I would be running the other way.

However, Alan’s polite way of promoting his website (I received an email from him) piqued my interest and I clicked on the link albeit with skepticism.

Contrary to my expectations, ThinkGoogly had a clean feel with advertisements at bare minimum. Coming to the quiz it is a largely interactive (forgive me if it is the wrong word) mixture of facts, statistics, and cricket trivia.

Even though I completed the trial run, aptly called’ Nets’ I came away with the conviction that to win you need to exercise your brain cells as well as your fingers.

If you are looking to challenge yourself mentally and to compete with others, ThinkGoogly is the website for you.
