Morgan plays for Middlesex and sparingly,Middlesex has a talent for nurtering foreign born locals into achieving county players.

Singapore and Malaysia U19s off to the U19 Asia Cup later this month. They'll be playing amongst the big guns this time, India, Pakistan, SL, Bangladesh.

Hopefully we can get up against Afghans and not embarrass ourselves against Pakistan and Bangladesh.

Mate we're rubbing shoulders with the Big Bash and have our own T20 tournament + the Kowloon Sixes coming up.

Don't have time for trivial world tournaments like you lot

Yep, you lot carry on with your prank HK Sixes cricket. Hopefully it'll generate enough cash to pay for Chapman's flight tickets from NZ whenever he's begged to play for his second country. Maybe you'll also have enough to replace the batting coach with someone who won't randomly decide that he's better than half the side (though Lehmann should seriously consider this option).

We'll just continue plugging along, producing home grown cricketers that can play with the big boys despite not having a training ground.

Outstanding 17 yo talent in Waqas Khan by the way. Good find. Here's a picture of him in his early 30s.

Get back to me when your senior team beats a Test playing nation in a World Tournament.

Hong Kong announce squad for Desert T20 tournament in UAE - News - Hong Kong Cricket

"As for our squad, it's great to have Cameron McAulsan, a good young all-rounder who has been doing well at school in New Zealand and going to be a very crucial player for us going forward. He's a great all-round athlete and been close to selection for some time now."

"Waqas Barkat has gone back and done what's been asked, which is to work on his leg spin and he will be useful batsman in the middle order. He was a top order batsman previously for us but struggled for runs and developed his bowling. There's not a lot of leg-spinners around so we challenged him to work on it and that should be his focus. He's done well and has been very economical this season."

Seems like we're avenging NZ trying to poach Mark Chapman by stealing one of their schoolboy cricketers. Kid has played one game in HK - opened the batting, scored 10, and didn't bowl.

Waqas Barkat - a former wicketkeeper - being asked to focus on his legbreaks when Nizakat is still in the team is a bit strange too.
