 ABSTRACT

The name of our project is CRICHUB. CRICHUB is a web application which displays news
snippets of the upcoming IPL edition along with news snippets of major events of the previous
IPL edition. The website also displays the details of each team participating in the IPL, giving
information about the squads, owners, past performances, etc. An unprecedented feature is
blogging, which allows users to express and discuss their thoughts and opinions about the latest
happenings surrounding the IPL and, in general, any cricketing event. Users can write, edit and
delete their blogs. Admins can edit and delete blogs as well. One of the major aims behind the
website was to promote and encourage Karnataka players playing in the IPL.

 PROBLEM STATEMENT

To build a website that displays latest updates of IPL, stats of Karnataka players playing in the
IPL, updated points table. The website also will give users an opportunity to write blogs and read
blogs written by other users. Admins will be allowed to regulate the contents of the blog and
users.

ANALYSIS

After going through multiple similar websites, we realized that none of them provided users with
the feature of blogging in order to express their thoughts and opinions on the latest happenings in
the cricketing world. We also figured that there were no homegrown websites encouraging and
promoting players from Karnataka. Through our website we have tried to implement solutions
for these problems and enhance the existing features. After thorough analysis, we decided to use
HTML, CSS and JavaScript to design the frontend of the website, and php to connect to the
backend. We used MySQL to store our databases. We scrutinized and decided to have 2 modules
(Admin and User) to implement the desired functionalities. Once the user registers and logins, he
will be redirected to the home page, where he will have the options to view latest news, updated
points table, stats of Karnataka players, performance of each team and also a special feature to
write, read and edit blogs. The admin has options to delete users, edit and delete inappropriate
blogs.
