^ Oh my, timmyj :shock: . My respect for you is diminished. You had been at least consistent in your criticism of teams using "Ex-pats". I can sympathize with that to a degree. Cricket is limited if it never moves beyond players from cricket-playing backgrounds. However, your apparent lauding of the...

^ timmyj lurking in the weeds until Canada is safely eliminated before boldly making his statement :D Welcome back. Canadian team has lots of problems. A dependence on players from traditional cricket backgrounds is just one of them. Oman and UAE are in the playoffs and it would not a surprise to se...

Canada finishes with 3 consecutive losses to again miss the T20 World Cup. I thought going in that the Canadians would need to play at a higher level and in the end they could not. There were a few good performances here and there but against the teams they had to beat, the players mostly underwhelm...

So Jersey just knocked off Oman, something Canada never looked like being capable. Canada's path to the playoffs is through UAE. If successful, we face the Netherlands. Lose that and it's a rested Scotland. Not any easy prospects but the only chance is one match at a time and victory over the hosts.

Canada 144/9 vs Oman After a solid foundation from Weijeyeratne, the team was not able to accelerate. Wickets falling like dominoes in the end. It's runs on the board but the bowlers have a huge ask ahead of them. Again, Dhaliwal not really able to inflict much damage against Oman. His consistency h...

Canada placed in Group D: Afghanistan South Africa (hosts) UAE Canada Canada avoid being placed with 3 Test nations as with the other groups but UAE beat out a the usually strong Nepal to qualify.

^ True. Hong Kong would have been one of the teams to target for a win yet we haven't responded today. It wasn't even close. I hoped Canada were turning a corner with the Ireland win but they are not there yet. Dhaliwal and Singh needed to be big contributors for Canada's success in this tournament....

Canada end on 156/5 against Ireland. From 124/1 after 15ov, a mere 32 from the last five is an opportunity lost. Credit to the Irish bowlers for reeling Canada back in. A third great performance by Nitish and an impressive top score from Dhaliwal could go for naught if there is not an equally strong...

Is Kumar going to run out of partners? I don't think Nigeria will score 100.

Canada 159/7

Well below par score for Canada. But yes, it should be enough.

Canadian batting making tough work of the weakest opponent they are likely to face this tournament. Some big bloughs will be needed to make a decent total. And the bowling will have to have a big day.
