Re: Canada @ 2022 Challenge League A (3rd round)

I'm going to bed. Canada win the tournament with three games to go. Pargat Singh with a big 83, Dutta with 53* with many of them coming off the last over, and Thaker with a good 41. Singapore just don't have the firepower to get 300 and had trouble with the spinners. Also, I don't get these Associat...

Re: Canada @ 2022 Challenge League A (3rd round)

The organizers tried to make the schedule in such a way as to maintain some sort of drama but the teams are not doing their part. Singapore lost to fifth place Vanuatu and Denmark lost to last place Malaysia so Canada is likely to have two or even three completely meaningless games which I'm sure th...

Re: Canada @ 2022 Challenge League A (3rd round)

Canada with the not totally impressive victory over Qatar by four wickets. Maybe it was a tricky batting pitch? Kirton with the excellent 65* off 81 and Kaleem Sana with the 5fer. Ravinderpal Singh again out for not very many. I was a bit surprised to see Kirton in at #4 and very surprised to see Du...

Re: T20 WC 2024

Suriname? So happy to see them back in the Americas! 2023 shaping up to be a huge year for Canada cricket. A tour before ODIs in April and the T20 qualifier in September. Hopefully some warmups for that as well

Re: Canada @ 2022 Challenge League A (3rd round)

I’ve heard Vanuatu and (I think) Denmark have a warm up game so I suppose Canada will as well?

Also Jersey who won the other Challenge League. I don’t think USA and Canada are sure to beat UAE and Nepal. Should be close though.

Re: Desert T20

I’m just now watching Canada’s innings and they seem to be in a hurry. Why? A six off the 1st ball. 33-0 off the 1st 4 overs.

Re: Canada @ 2022 Challenge League A (3rd round)

There’s some weird thing too about the top 5 keep ODI status no matter what happens in the qualifier. The #6-7 might lose ODI status.

Re: Desert T20

In an in-game interview with the coach of Oman, he repeatedly used the words "youngsters" and "rebuilding" "development" etc. Which is of course an excellent approach. We shouldn't be over happy with Canada's performance. It's excellent prep for Canada but CC needs to really keep up the domestic tou...
