Cricket World Cup 1975 - 2015

Hi all,

The story behind creating the Cricket World Cup 1975 - 2015

A Big heeeeeeeeeeeello to all the Cricket fans around the world.

I am one of the craziest fans among our group of friends. I love to play & watch live cricket. It all started in 1992 World Cup when I was only 12 years; we did not have any medium to watch live cricket, so I used to go to my neighbor’s home to enjoy the thrill of world cup cricket matches @ 3:30 am IST.

I always had a desire to do something to showcase my talent & the opportunity arose when I was not employed for 6 months after working in a BPO (Medical Billing Process) for 5 years. I only knew some Medical Billing terminology & that’s it.

My family was not in a position to bear all the expenses without a financial support from me. I have made up my mind to make my career in the World of Excel. I quickly joined an online course & learnt number of tricks & joined an organization in Sales profile.

Before festival of Holi I started giving some time to this project from home. Within 3-4 days everything was almost ready except some VBA coding in which testing was required to minimize the time taken in refreshing all the data from espncricinfo site.

The beauty of this dashboard is interactivity; you only need to click on Refresh All button & the macro will work in the background update all the data with formatting & lets you know the stats that you are interested in.

I hope you will like it. Please feel free to give your suggestion mail: [email protected]
