Cricket returning to normal

[Tom Flint]

Well see

Got this from the father of a state squad player today

Unless things improve, there won’t be any organised sports allowed until November/December

Australia is doing wellish and is an island

Chances of international cricket opening up anytime soon is extremely remote

You are all welcome

IMO - Just because professional sports bodies around the world are covering their bases right now by calling off their seasons entirely, and ensuring that they don't build any optimism that might make people slack off and not take this virus seriously, does not mean it's wrong to be optimistic and hopeful. If any two countries in the world can get the virus under control, they will 100% organise an international series between themselves right away. Everyone wants to be first in this market, which means we could have international cricket as soon as June/July.

Sure that might just be an Associate T20I series, but still.

Coronavirus and international cricket

This video explores the implications of the Coronavirus on international cricket, including the IPL 2020. Posted almost a month ago but still discusses some relevant factors including the need for cricket administrators to safeguard broadcasting revenues.

Friend of mine lives in Hong Kong and posted a video of his local supermarket yesterday

People are nuts

 

[cnerd123]

?

I live in Hong Kong and there is no one being nuts right now lol. Especially in Supermarkets. Everything is stocked, prices are normal, and people are going about their day. Just a lot of social distancing measures in place

I suggest whatever video you got is either back from a couple of months ago, around CNY, when panic buying was occurring everywhere, or it's just fake news

The NRL is slated to return on May 28. I'm not saying that's going to happen but I don't think your state player father could possibly have any idea that far out. I agree with the last part though

We could foreseeably have an ad hoc test/ ODI series between Australia and NZ but I don't think we'll trust any other government's stats on covid numbers until a vaccine is around.

tbh assuming that someone has access to super secret verified information on the topic because they are "father of a state player" seems a but tenuous

vaccine will be very interesting. If ever a situation arised where one is going to be rushed through with limited reasearch and monitoring, this will be it. I can imagine a lot of people, more than usual, refusing to get it.

Well that settles it then, we may as Well cancel everything now because the dad of a state player reckons so

Well that settles it then, we may as Well cancel everything now because the dad of a state player reckons so

It’s more likely to be then than anytime in the English summer

That’s the advice of Queensland Cricket not the dad

 

[sledger]

But you did have dinner with the dad right? Because that is the information we are all dying to know.

 

[Tom Flint]

The dad also knows the situation in England too yeah?
