Hi friends, (1/2)
I’ve been a bit busy recently, started a new course which will run for the rest of this year, so apologies for not posting as often.
BUT, I had a fantastic suggestion from @DarkDes2004 to start a discord for Associate Cricket discussions.

A great article on Ugandan Cricket that I came across. It’s no secret that they’re my favourite associate team, I really hope they make it to the T20WC again in 2028. Definitely seems like the board is doing a great job of growing cricket there.

If anyone was wondering what Cedric de Lange is doing during the European winter, he has just smacked 78(30) on debut for @MelbUniCC
He can’t stop scoring runs! Hopefully in 2 years time it’ll be on the MCG at the T20WC.

Why didn't they try and run the third?
100% chance they lose if they don't run it, maybe 99% chance they lose if they do run it?
SO WHY NOT TRY AND WIN THE GAME

Imagine playing a qualifying league consisting of 144 ODIs, with each team playing 36 ODIs, just to qualify for the CWC Qualifier, only to then qualify for another Qualifier in the name of the Super Series.
This is not a pathway. More like a punishment for being an Associate.
What's even more sad is that Namibia, who's literally co-hosting the WC, has to go through all of this.
Shame on you, @ICC.

THE EAGLES HAVE SPOKEN! 🦅🇳🇦
Namibia 🇳🇦 131/5 defeat Ireland🍀 129 to claim a memorable 3 - 2 ODI series victory against a Full Member nation!
Create as many hurdles as you want, ICC. The Namibians are hungry and are serious contenders for the WC.

Susan and I had the great privilege of supporting @cricketinjersey in Nairobi
Huge congratulations to the team on topping the @icc CWCLA .
This team is playing at an international level and is a great credit to the island.
Good luck in the World Cup qualifier playoffs in Nepal in Dec

We'll start to talk about accumulated fatigue soon - worth looking at this chart. Cummins has been a machine across series, staying as effective throughout, but Starc & Hazlewood have generally dropped off in 4th Tests. We're only in the third, but with both over 35 years old...
