    2016 Under 19 Cricket World Cup

    Congratulations, Weldone! Just how much did you rake in all together? And I'll be honest even after the fact: I thought you were a fool to bet max because of good odds when the more accurate odds were still well against you. Well, I was the fool, comparable to Grieg having to grovel after the...

    Special Request of any members living in the West Indies

    Fully agreed on merchandising. When I wanted a Sammy jersey I had to have it custom made in England. I'd have rather paid more and Sammy gotten his fair share from the sale. But then the WICB is so idiotic, I'm not surprised. And they're so corrupt if they licensed player names, etc., the...

    Special Request of any members living in the West Indies

    Because they are not manufactured and sold, or for some other reason?

    Special Request of any members living in the West Indies

    Thanks for the options! I'll definitely look into the Custom route if no authorized flags are available.

    It's really sad to read all this, but thanks to all for posting all the updating links.

    Special Request of any members living in the West Indies

    I've been trying to find flags (3' x 5', with 2 grommets) for Windwards Cricket and Leewards Cricket. (The first for myself, the second for my son who's also a big cricket fan.) However, there appear to be no online stores that sell these flags. Can anyone living in the Windies tell me if these...

    Women's Big Bash League 2015-16

    alas, there's no TV or live streaming here in the U.S. Willow TV has the BBL matches, but for whatever reason (I bugged them enough, certainly), they didn't pick up the WBBL televised matches. Can't believe they would have cost much. ESPN3 doesn't have it either, and those are the only US...

    ICC makes pay cuts to Associates,to shore up the big 3 .

    The link does not seem to be working; and I cannot find the article with a cricinfo search. Tried google, it showed the article, but same result. Seem like cricinfo has removed the article. Strange. And more like rule and divide, since they rule already. :(

    Who will win the ICC T20 Cricket World Cup 2016?

    I have no clue who will win, but I'll be rooting 100% for the Windies. If and when they lose, it will break my heart, but I'm used to that by now. Otoh, if the WICB refuses to let all their best players play, I will enjoy cursing them to damnation. Alas, I have plenty of reasons to do that anyway.

    With their 3-format series with Sri Lanka, followed almost immediately by the Pakistan tour, pretty much all the top Black Cap players are unavailable.

    Sign Petition to get Cricket Australia to fix the mess that is West Indian cricket

    Agreed, but I'll sign most anything that brings attention to the sorry state of Windies cricket. Petition should really go to CARICOM! Tell em to set up a rival board to WICB and get it approved by the ICC. (but I did sign the petition)

    Women's Big Bash League 2015-16

    Another amazing weekend for the WBBL, highlighted by Grace Harris's all rounder performance for the ages, with a ton and 4-wicket haul against the Sixers. I've submitted a question to Ask Steven about how that stacks up against other T20 all rounder achievements, women's and men's.

    **Official** Big Bash 2015/16

    I don't begrudge everyone their money from the BBL and similar tourneys. Players in particular are the reason folks pay to watch cricket. American sports have learned this, their big league players, even the lowly among them, make huge salaries. Cricket is slowly learning this. Have Gayle or AB...

    West Indies test cricket team

    ROFL. Alas, that only means a minimum of two for 2015.

    Is there ANY hope of a West Indian test cricket resurgence?

    Seems to me the answer is clearly to fire the WICB and get a new board that puts players first. If our (I speak as a fan, although a Yank) best players were on our test team, we still wouldn't be very good today, but we'd be a sight better than the joke we are now, alas. And how to fire the...

    Women's Big Bash League 2015-16

    The outstanding performance yesterday (and for the tournament so far) was obviously Grace Harris's ton plus a 4 haul. However, the most amazing result was probably the Hurricane's win in spite of 4 ducks, 3 of them golden.
