Re: T20 WC 2024

According to Nick Hayes at the Big Innings podcast “every USA fan every Canada fan is thrilled” because of the USA Canada “rivalry”. Also Nick Skinner from Emerging Cricket. Canada v USA to open the tournament. Rev up that hype machine!

Maybe the Canada guys could see this coming down Main Street and were smart enough to stay far away.

Re: Canadian overseas pros

Are there any Canadian guys playing overseas? I keep hearing about players from associate countries playing county or club cricket somewhere. I wonder if a guy could get into the domestic game in maybe the Netherlands or Scotland or…. I suppose playing in the APL won’t really do it for you although ...

Re: Canadian overseas pros

Premium Canadians have had four games abandoned. The one game they’ve played had no names that I recognized and did not seem like the list I saw on the tournament website. Aaron Johnson with a 52 for Windies.

Re: ICC/Int'l cricket news/discussion

With ODI money I hope there are real pathways established. There was a u17 tournament in 2022 but not 2023. There must be more high performance type competitions domestically. Also there should be emphasis on lots of girls age groups play.

Re: Canadian overseas pros

Right. But he is only 20 yrs. This type of series is of course perfect for him. He should play in the domestic 1st class comp and hopefully A tours in the future.

Re: T20 WC 2024

I’ve watched some highlights from the Africa qualifier. Some very excellent catches. It’s not park cricket! Canada is going to have to be very sharp.

Re: development

I've listened to the podcast called Big Innings and it's so far been good. It's not yet been totally about the details of USA cricket about which I don't care. They have a podcast with a top umpire and he says the USA umpire association is not going to officiate at the US Open because they won't pay...
