Your Next Signing, Found for You: Introducing Recommended Players and Trending Players

Finding the right player just got a whole lot easier. We've launched two new tools for clubs on Cricketer Exchange: Recommended Players and Trending Players. Together, they put the platform's smartest player discovery yet directly into your club dashboard.

Recommended Players: Picks Made for Your Club

Every club recruits differently. A seam-friendly ground, a young batting line-up, a need for an experienced keeper — the players you look at tell a story about what your club needs. Recommended Players uses that story to work for you.

Our new recommendation engine learns from the players you save, accept and message, then surfaces similar players you may not have found yet. The more you use Cricketer Exchange, the sharper your recommendations become.

How It Works

• You browse as normal — save players, respond to applications, send messages.
• We find the pattern — the recommendation engine identifies what those players have in common.
• You get fresh picks — a personalised shortlist of similar players, updated regularly.

New to the platform or haven't saved anyone yet? No problem — you'll see the players attracting the most attention across Cricketer Exchange until your personalised picks are ready.

Trending Players: See Who Everyone Is Watching

Some players generate buzz the moment they sign up. Trending Players shows you exactly who is attracting the most attention on Cricketer Exchange right now, ranked from hottest down.

Why does that matter? Because in recruitment, timing is everything. A player drawing views and messages from multiple clubs won't be available for long. Trending Players lets you get in early — before another club beats you to it.

What You'll See

• A live ranking of the most in-demand players on the platform, updated regularly.
• Full player cards — the same rich profiles you know from player search, so you can assess and act in one click.
• Direct access to view profiles, save players and start conversations straight from the list.

How to Access the New Features

Both features are available now to clubs with an active subscription:

1. Log in to your club account.
2. Open your club dashboard.
3. Look for Recommended Players and Trending Players in your dashboard menu.

You'll also spot a preview of your recommended players right on your dashboard home, so your next signing might be waiting the moment you log in.
