With Cricket Canada President seeming more willing to divulge information, perhaps this post to summarize interviews with him, other Board members and players may be of interest.

The ICC website is now showing two warm-up matches for Canada (added to initial post). These fixtures provide a great challenge for the young Canadians and to play in these warm-ups would be almost as sought-after as the main competition itself.

Squad named: Astan Deosammy (Captain) Akhil Kumar Arshdeep Dhaliwal Ayush Verma Benjamin Calitz Eshan Sensarma Gurjot Gosal Mihir Patel Muhammad Kamal Nicholas Manohar Randhir Sandhu Raqib Shamsudeen Rishiv Joshi Udaybir Walia Harmandeep Singh Bedi Head coach: Farouk Kirmani Deosammy, Dhaliwal, Sand...

The Canadians involved in QT10 ended up playing all the matches for their respective teams. They'll be hoping it leads to further opportunities. Unfortunately, the tournament itself was not free of concerns : https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/28319225/icc-opens-anti-corruption-investigations-f...

So then we're both waiting for news of the squad and warm-ups. :D I've been checking the ICC site for both the last few days. Nothing yet. Canada will be among the last to name a squad.

Nick Kirton clearly has talent but seems to suffer from serious problems with confidence. He started this tournament with 3 strong innings followed by 4 poor ones. His professional prospects in the Barbados/CWI set ups are very much up in the air. I'm not sure he is much help to Canada unless he can...

Thoughts on 2019 Super 50: This tournament has shown Canada has enough talent to play competitive cricket at this level. All being equal, the senior team should have been expected to win a couple of additional games. This tournament was some of the best opportunities ever offered to new players. Wit...

Nov 25: Canada vs Combined Campuses and Colleges Marooners Canada 252 all out (50 ov) CCC: 201 all out (44.2 ov) Canada appeared headed for another poor outing to conclude their Super 50. However, another good start from Pathan and Thaker's stand helped the team to a defensible score against the stu...
