A very poor start for Canada who are blitzed by Bermuda in their opening match. It leaves Canada in need of nothing less than 4 wins and a large deficit in net run rate to make up prior to their rematch with host Bermuda.

This article seems like as good a reason as any to start a thread for Canada's League 2 campaign : https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/corporations-considering-canadian-cricket-1.1964703 It mentions the national team (14 members) as receiving "salaries that average about $55,000 to $65,000" on contract for ...

Canada's women not far off the level of the States. Continuing to develop talent and expanding the player pool are what is required to stay in touch.

Sport and society are still coming to grips with "transiti...

The reality is that if Americas women's cricket was more developed, and specifically Canada had a greater depth and level of talent, McGahey would not even be in the picture for selection. As long as the issue of transgender women in cricket remains confined to weak associates like Canada, there wil...
