Re: Global T20 Canada 2020

With the postponement of the Everest Premier League (Nepal) due to COVID-19 precautions, the organizers of other franchise T20 tournaments like GT20 must be getting concerned. Even the mighty IPL has to keep a close watch on events. If there are further delays or postponements, the already small GT2...

Re: Canada @ 2020 Challenge League A (2nd round)

Challenge League A postponed: https://cricketcanada.org/news-single?nid=101 With political, business and sporting events/conferences being cancelled/postponed worldwide, I was wondering whether COVID-19 would also affect this tournament.

Re: Big news for Canadian cricketers..

Is anything happening on this once-promising front? No news of a fall tour to Australia. No news of a 2020 Caribbean tour when the team needs it most ahead of the Challenge League 2nd round. No news of any $30K contracts. Is it likely these developments have taken place in complete silence? No. Add ...

Re: Interviews of CC Board, Players, etc.

^ Time grows short for 2022 Commonwealth Games qualification and I've yet to see any mention of the tournament from ICC or Cricket Canada. I have the unfortunate suspicion this first edition will be a Full Member-only affair. West Indies might have to hold a qualification to see which country repres...
