Haider Ali got chucked out of PSL for a biosecurity breach and then dropped from contracts. Must have coughed on the selector or something.

Two West Indian women collapsed on the field and got taken to the hospital during their match. Anyone know any more about this?

Apparently the WICB says they are stable and safe, but unable to find more on that from crapinfo.

Azam & Labu are the only ones <30 that look elite atm.

There's a proper lack of very good Test batsmen <30 yo right now I think

Azam
Labu
Pant
Latham
Nicholls

A few maybes in Gill/Conway/Markram perhaps but cupboards a bit bare.

Jamaica's cricketing relationship with Costa Rica as chronicled by historians

The Gleaner covered the highlights of Costa Rican cricket in the 1930s. The newspaper’s cricket correspondent ‘Longfield’ was fascinated by the story of how Jamaicans had taken cricket to Costa Rica. Since then, cricket has continued in Costa Rica...

Nice story about a place the game once lived. George Headley features

 

[Starfighter]

Cricinfo's changed their players archive, making it not really an archive anymore and much worse, and the very good search function is gone so you have to use the terrible site one.

I thought it was a dive going for a run…

This is somehow sad
