There's matches in Guyana and T&T where the Indian diaspora is the largest ethnic group.

2020 was postponed for a year due to Covid. It's a biennial event now.

How much luck is Zampa going to get?

 

[Durham-Mackem41]

Should of bowled them out and could be chasing 300

Was it not them two in charge last T20 World Cup when we won it?

And Buttler would walk into any T20 side in the world

I’ve not been Guyana but yes there are plenty in POS

 

[Silly Point]

Can't wait to see this lot "defend" another world cup in embarrassing fashion

20 teams and only a 3 week tournament, why couldn't they have done similar with the 50 over game with half the numbers?

They'll be playing 2 games a day which helps shorten the tournament.

They'll be playing 2 games a day which helps shorten the tournament.

They also want to guarantee nine India group games in the 50 over stuff to maximize TV cash.

I wouldnt have a problem with that of more went to the associates instead of the big three.

f***ing hell

 

[Paddy O'Dors]

African qualifiers start today. Any 2 from Kenya, Namibia, Nigeria, Rwanda, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zimbabwe. Matches available for free on the ICC TV app.

Rwanda are fairly new to cricket being a former French colony rather than British. They have a cracking cricket ground... Rwanda Cricket Stadium - Wikipedia

Kenya have just beaten Rwanda and Uganda have just beaten Tanzania. Zim v Namibia is on live at 13:50

 

[Silly Point]

Zimbabwe and Namibia pretty comfortably you would think

 

[knowl123]

Talking of Kenya, who remembers them getting to the semis in 03? I know it was a mess of a tournament with some teams refusing to go to Zimbabwe but it was an unbelievable achievement.

Let’s hope the best team wins
