Cricketing History has been with you and on the web in different forms and names from the mid-nineties. It is being run by the same team that was behind the most popular Cricket websites available today.
We have now decided to provide the data we helped build and collect free of profit to the viewers who do not deserve the commercial-centric services they have been getting by the platforms that claim to have the most accurate data online.
Best Wishes,
The Cricketing History Team.

(We are friendly people and have to write all this for you know why, but just ask us if anything strikes your mind or help us get better!)

“Fair use is a legal doctrine that promotes freedom of expression by permitting the unlicensed use of copyright-protected works in certain circumstances. Section 107 of the Copyright Act provides the statutory framework for determining whether something is a fair use and identifies certain types of uses—such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, [parody] and research—as examples of activities that may qualify as fair use.”
Our entirety is based on Fair Use. We understand we cannot simply use images and content without permission and hope you understand it too while posting or wanting to use our content or content posted on The Conservative for your personal or corporate use.
We hold the right to criticize, debate, report, teach, conduct research on anything that we choose as long as it is within the realms of Fair Use. People who may use our platform to share content created should be aware of this too and we do not allow the copying, plagiarizing, pirating, etc. Of other peoples’ hard work. If you feel your content was plagiarized or stolen please contact us and we hold the right to determine whether your concerns are legitimate before taking action.
Please note that criticism, reporting of, teaching, making fun of your content is not considered as plagiarism or piracy. Everyone has the right to do all that to anything you publicly do or say or write, and all requests that do not involve legitimate violations will be turned down immediately. Quoting your work is not plagiarism unless the entire article is a quote. Whatever you say or do or write as a public figure or in public relinquishes your rights to privacy.
“Purpose and character of the use, including whether the use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes: Courts look at how the party claiming fair use is using the copyrighted work, and are more likely to find that nonprofit educational and noncommercial uses are fair. This does not mean, however, that all nonprofit education and noncommercial uses are fair and all commercial uses are not fair; instead, courts will balance the purpose and character of the use against the other factors below. Additionally, ‘transformative’ uses are more likely to be considered fair. Transformative uses are those that add something new, with a further purpose or different character, and do not substitute for the original use of the work.
Nature of the copyrighted work: This factor analyzes the degree to which the work that was used relates to copyright’s purpose of encouraging creative expression. Thus, using a more creative or imaginative work (such as a novel, movie, or song) is less likely to support a claim of a fair use than using a factual work (such as a technical article or news item [or news reporting, criticism, debate, etc.]). In addition, use of an unpublished work is less likely to be considered fair.Amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole: Under this factor, courts look at both the quantity and quality of the copyrighted material that was used. If the use includes a large portion of the copyrighted work, fair use is less likely to be found; if the use employs only a small amount of copyrighted material, fair use is more likely. That said, some courts have found use of an entire work to be fair under certain circumstances. And in other contexts, using even a small amount of a copyrighted work was determined not to be fair because the selection was an important part—or the “heart”—of the work.
Effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work: Here, courts review whether, and to what extent, the unlicensed use harms the existing or future market for the copyright owner’s original work. In assessing this factor, courts consider whether the use is hurting the current market for the original work (for example, by displacing sales of the original) and/or whether the use could cause substantial harm if it were to become widespread.
In addition to the above, other factors may also be considered by a court in weighing a fair use question, depending upon the circumstances. Courts evaluate fair use claims on a case-by-case basis, and the outcome of any given case depends on a fact-specific inquiry. This means that there is no formula to ensure that a predetermined percentage or amount of a work—or specific number of words, lines, pages, copies—may be used without permission.”
