can Ipl & Icl Generate Intrest Among Non Test Playing Nations & Give More Opportunities For Players From Associate & Affliate Teams...

 

[andruid]

That would be good option, but I don't think IPL teams aren't looking for those kind of players..plus there wouldn't be much remuneration for those players.

I can't imagine why not...

 

[Captain Cricket]

Well if you've got Warne, Astle, Cairns, McGrath etc. and then you've got these Canadian players who have played only one WC group match and a few series with Namibia they obviously won't get as much money as the stars did.

 

[laksh_01]

Forget about Canadian players, Imagine players from Kenya, Scotland, Ireland who are really talented they could play in order to gain form, experience & exposure?

Saudi Arabia's seriously good. Best middle-east country?

I think UAE might still be a little way ahead of them.

 

[Captain Cricket]

I think UAE might still be a little way ahead of them.

I wouldn't mind seeing them play together actually..but will have to agree with you on that one JUST.

 

[laksh_01]

I guess Afghanistan can be the best compared to Saudi Arabia...

 

[Captain Cricket]

I have some Afghans at my school who are bloody good, better than the Indians there, believe it or not. Just pointing something irrelevant out sorry.

 

[laksh_01]

Cant mistake them those Indians might also have learnt the game the same Afghans did in Australia but it counts from the after school level who keeps up...

aah well 2007 will be the last Cricket world cup Holland will feature in, it;s only going downhill from here...

Expand on that please. Why?

KNCB is a complete mess at the moment, still no head-coach....Ireland and Scotland getting 100x more support from the ICC and the ECB just take a short peak at the international schedual for non-test playing countries....read cricketeurope.com and you will see why Holland can only go down from here...
not many promising players coming up, yes some, but not enough to withstand the scotish young guns not to forget the Irish...boy they are good.

nope the future isn't orange....

Poor Dutch... But I think they have the talent to qualify for the 2011 Wc cause they are much better compared to other Associates (except Ireland, Kenya & Scotland). The real danger is for Canada & Bermuda as the Asian Teams such as Afghanistan, UAE & Oman are coming very strong. Dont forget the Africans, Namibia look very much in place with Uganda (as long as they dont spoil by themselves)... The 2009 Qualifiers should be the best till now! Wat say guys?

Vanuatu league brought forward:
The cricket season’s starting early in Vanuatu because of the national side’s commitments in the World Cricket League in Jersey in May. It’s been brought forward six weeks to give players the chance to impress. Port Vila’s premier cricket competition, the BDO Club Championship, will begin February 8 with eight teams taking part this year.

Bangladesh I would think..but Ireland and co. would provide some good resistance.

 

[andruid]

Bangladesh I would think..but Ireland and co. would provide some good resistance.

That is a toughie I reckon Bangladesh cos of their overall consistency but it will be close to decide who faces them in the final
