Re: Canada @ 2024-6 CWC League 2
What is going on with this Canada team :shock: ? They're ... upending good sides. I really expected a tougher encounter with Scotland the 2nd time around. Instead, another across-the-board solid bowling performance kept the Scots to an even lower total than the previous encounter. Canada had another...

Re: Canadian overseas players
I changed the name of this thread to cover players in general as opposed to just professionals. Anyway, it seems Nitish Kumar is playing for the South West Zone in the National T20 Championship in the US, which is a major selection competition for USA cricket's T20 national side. There was also a 50...

Re: Canada @ 2024-6 CWC League 2
Canada with another important win, though a little closer this time and requiring D/L method. UAE are mixing in 4 and 5 U23 players in their squads. They could maybe field a stronger, more experienced side but are opting to make some change now that will pay off later. Canada may face similar dilemm...

Re: ICC/Int'l cricket news/discussion
Ireland win their first Test after 8 tries and nearly 6 years. It came against fellow "2nd Test tier" nation, Afghanistan but still a monkey they will be glad to have off their backs.

Re: Canada @ 2024-6 CWC League 2
Wow. Unexpected early success for Canadians in League 2 and against the reigning "champions" of the previous competition. Scotland will be a strong team but they are a month behind Canada in preparation. In the end, a comprehensive victory for Canada, restricting the Scots to 215 and easily surpassi...

Re: Canada @ 2024-6 CWC League 2
Good debut win for Canada in League 2! Everyone bowled pretty well to keep UAE under 200. Pleasing to see Sana able to take wickets at this level. Canada recovered well after losing some big bats from the top order. Their resilience with 6 down and 60 odd runs still needed, is encouraging. This is t...

Re: Associate competitions
Very interesting results in the Challenge League Playoff: Super sixes : Kuwait, Tanzania 4 points Italy, Bahrain 2 points Bermuda, Vanuatu 0 points Malaysia out of ICC 50 over competitions, Saudi Arabia still excluded for now. Both will be fine however, given the active regions in which they play. A...
