***Official*** Hong Kong T20 Blitz 2018

[Daemon]

I saw an ad for this on Zee Tv the other day, not bad.

 

[S.Kennedy]

The chap in this weeks Cricket Paper was praising it, organised as it is by an associate.

 

[Camo999]

Oh yeah. Marlon & Calum MacLeod are in the same side. Kowloon Cantons have just become my favourite T20 team anywhere in the world. This is gunna be awesome.

When is it starting?

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

A chinese newspaper is covering the story is a great sight for change

 

[Smudge]

Also mods can we sticky this please?

Are the other T20 league threads stickied? It's not the mods' job to throw a pity party for Hong Kong.

(trying for a ***** anti-like)

Other T20 leagues pale in comparison

Ok guys, hypothetical scenario:

Say you're a failing international cricketer in this league (because let's face it, other than the retired blokes these are the only types you'll find here) and you have a family with a gross income of $80,000. You live in a okish HK apartment and own a small car.

What's your price to bowl two wides in your first over?

If you have a household income of 80K/month and are able to afford a small car in HK then you are not playing in the Blitz, you're enjoying the VIP section.

Most of the HK players there are gonna be <25 years old or guys like Ryan Buckley who are professionals employed by the HKCC.

80k a month? A year you fool. In USD. Answer the question.

No way you're affording a car and an okay-ish HK flat on that household income.

Can you answer the damn question? ffs.

That would probably happen even if you didn't pay me. I'm not a great bowler and would be ****ing nervous if I had to bowl to Sanga.

Man how I wish I had an 80K USD yearly income and a small car. Life would be so different.

In our hypothetical scenario, your parents unfortunately passed away in an accident and left you that small apartment. So all your savings so far have been used for the car and family.
