Re: Cricket Canada announcements and news

In the 2nd 50-0ver game between Oman and Canada, there is an interview with Canada team manager Alphonso Franco after the 13.2 overs. He says "we have a roster of 50-60 people back home.

Re: ICC favorite son/daughter (yet again)

The Emerging Cricket podcast guys said that a number of players are going to become eligible for the USA in 2023. This is the thing they've been actively working towards for the past few years with overseas guys playing in MiLC. Qualifiers could be a different story from now on.

Re: Desert T20

I'm just watching the game. Thaker had an excellent game with a career best 75. I thought it was a long tail but Dutta hit 47 coming in at #8. I don't know what Ravinderpal Singh brings to the team. He usually gets out for low scores. I guess in T20 it is to score as big as possible as quickly as po...

Re: Desert T20

Johnson might get a few gigs based on this performance, however he runs like he's injured and he's a defensive liability. He fields with his feet for goodness sake!

Re: Desert T20

It seems to me that Bahrain has to absolutely wallop Saudi Arabia to catch Canada on NRR so if Oman beats Canada it will be Canada and Oman in the final. Going in I thought three t20s against Oman - great! but Bahrain have proven to be a good side.

I forgot about WI playing in Oz. Da Silva’s there. BTW, why is India playing a t20 series against NZ now?

Re: Windies Super50

Kirton ended strong, batting and bowling well but Barbados is out so I guess he’ll join Canada soon. No da Silva for T&T in their last couple of games.

Re: Desert T20

Impressive victory against Oman! Great throw at the end! What’s the matter with these guys? They got the runout at the end and started celebrating before the umpire made a decision! What if the players kept running? Was it a dead ball because the umpire signalled the TV umpire?

Re: Desert T20

It looks like Canada won by 66 runs. I don’t mind because it’s match practice but it wasn’t as thumping a win as Oman had v Saudi Arabia.
