    *Official* Emerging Nations Cricket Thread

    All the countries involved seemed to have different ideas about whether they were official games. The associates all thought they were full internationals. SA sent university players and Zim sent under-25s (though still the strongest side, since they all had first class experience and some...

    Zimbabwe sent the strongest side and won gold convincingly, no surprises there.

    Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

    Don’t know if we have a general obituary thread but Essex and England legspinner Robin Hobbs passed away today. He had been ill for a long time. He was the last legspinner to play for England until Ian Salisbury and famously slogged one of the fastest hundreds ever in a tour match against...

    *Official* Women's Cricket discussion thread

    Don't think SA had their full side out but great to see Zimbabwe win gold at the African Games. Player of the Match Kelis Ndhlovu is only 18. They will be delighted. It is only a year since Sinikwe Mpofu, their assistant coach, passed away after the death of her husband who was the men's...

    How do we fix England

    I would simply leave the country. If you can't do that, supporting other teams makes it easier.

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    I just mention it because AFAIK that’s the only info we have about how he reacts to people giving him well deserved **** for being a scumbag.

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    IIRC someone on here who played grade cricket against Kuggs (or knew people who did) said he gets angry if anyone brings it up on the field, and cranks up the speed if they face him.

    That is not the New Zealand way.

    *Official* Australia tour of New Zealand Feb-Mar 2024

    Bowlers thought that for years, and it rarely worked until recently. The new ball will always swing more than batting 4, and he’s struggling with it. The Smith experiment has failed.

    FFS I haven’t watched a ball all morning, I sit down and Mitchell gets out first ball I see and now Ravindra too.

    Durham Champions of Zimbabwe

    While this is unusual it’s not really surprising. Durham probably spend more on their first team than Zimbabwe Cricket spend on all levels of the game across the entire country. Of course they should crush Zim first class teams. Even Durham v the full Zimbabwe team would be close. Good on...
