Preparation for their African tour, no doubt.
Canadian Women's cricket
Re: Canadian Women's cricket
African Tour:
Oct 20: Ugandan women brushes past Canada, surpassing the required total of 67 in 12 overs. 2 Canadian batters reach double figures. The visitors need to get up to speed quickly.
Oct 21: Canadian bowling was somewhat improved but same result.
Oct 23: Uganda bat first. Their batting seems ordinary but stronger than the level Canada often encounters in the Americas. In response Canada are again barely able muster a score of 80. Four Canadian run outs would attest to the difficulty of scoring.
Oct 24: No improvement from Canada. Bowlers can contain but unable to take enough wickets. Opening bats fail again.

Re: Canadian Women's cricket
Now 0-2. This is a series between a team of native players against a team of expats.
Re: Canadian Women's cricket
Now 0-4.
Mind you, Uganda's one of the weaker women's associates.
Re: Canadian Women's cricket
It seems to me the ladies are batting the full overs but just not scoring enough runs. Uganda are ranked 19, Tanzania are 20 and Canada is 31. I was hoping they’d move up in the rankings on this tour.
Re: Canadian Women's cricket
SKUNKED! 0-5. Canuck women really didn't even come
close to winning any match!
Waiting for the usual excuses from CC:
"It was valuable experience for
our players" [Yeah, really helpful "experience"
getting whopped right and left].
"The team played with a lot of passion
and energy" [What's needed is not "passion"
but talent, skill, and good coaching]
"It tells us what problems we have to address"
[As if you haven't known that for the last
ten years]
