West Indies v South Africa at Providence
Jun 3, 2016 (13:00 local | 17:00 GMT | 03:00 AEST 1 | 01:00 AWST 1d)
Zimbabwe are on official pooicide watch as Mugabe is bringing their local currency back into effect, which is going to fuck up cricket salaries even more. Graeme Cremer is the new captain after Masakadza was axed. South Africa's brave Makhaya Ntini and Lance Klusener are the new coach and batting coach respectively
Fuck jannies.

They have literally NEVER contributed anything of worth to cricket (Khawaja is a Poo Shit Peeleshman) and their attendance levels are atrocious.

Literally a steaming pile of shit compared to the IPL and Big Based League.
>>68017445
It's literally the same as the Big Bash, just with horrible promotion
>>68017514
Kek no its not, the BBL is 100x better than Englels comp. Literally every English player who has played in the BBL has said that
BBL is better than Englels comp because
>Fewer teams so standard of competition is higher
>on every night not this once a week nonsense so it drags on forever
>barely ever rains. I know England cant help this but there are entire rounds of their comp that get wiped out by rain because they all play on the same day

>not cold as fuck
>my super lame women and childrens league is better than yours!! Take that englel!!!!
>>68017584
Reminder you would LITERALLY be spewing furious vitriol all over this thread towards the BBL if Poo Peeland had their own meme tournament.
>>68017593
Uh, we do. We just leave it to rot in the corner, like all t20 should.
>>68017599
Reminder that Poo Peeland WILL eventually get a Based Bash team and it WILL be in Auckland and there is NOTHING that (YOU) can do to stop it
>>68017671
I'd rather PNG and PP play than red Melbourne and pink Sydney
>>68017671
kek, that team will suck harder than Hobart if only from 70% of the team being hospitalised with DVT from spending 50 hours a week in a plane.
>>68017680
What's wrong with pink Sydney?
>>68017671
Are you the same guy who was constantly spouting for all of last year how we'd never get one? What made you change your mind?
Personally I don't think it'll happen unless NZ gets at least 3 teams and replaces our current meme comp with it, but I don't really see that happening.
>>68017688
All their players play for the Australian team anyways.
Also, I really hope they sign Allah's very own Mohammad Shahzad for the next season.
>>68017693
That has even less of a chance of happening. They're not going to flood the league with teams to cater to PP.
The fact is that PP's meme competition is the worst in the test playing world outside of Zimbabwe and there isn't enough of a population or interest to build a proper one. You either join the BBL or do nothing and rely on meme bilaterals
>>68017693
Nope
I think it'll happen if they want to expand the league because adding a PP team is the only way they can do it without making the comp shit
This is the worst /cric/ thread of all time
>>68017706
The international PNG or Hong Kong teams could manage to be mildly competitive.
>>68017713
No way
PNG and King Kong are weaker than most Sydney grade sides
t. someone who has played with and against guys who play for PNG & Hong Kong
>>68017727
And the BBL teams have literal Sydney grade side players in them
I can feel a big, fat shit coming lads
>>68017703
I know. And NZC won't bend over just to give one team, so I don't really see it progressing.
>>68017713
Mark Chapman (HK's best player) barely made the Auckland T20 team.
Do you think a full strength NZ t20 team could actually win the BBL? Obviously winning T20 is like 60% luck but I feel like only one team, if all the internationals were available, would dominate, considering the Aus talent is split amongst eight.
>>68017703
And with the PSL and BPL existing, along with the talk of increasing the frequency of the World Cup, interest in those bilaterals will die
>>68017751
Obviously, but the Poopeelians will NEVER admit it. There could be 15 Pootralian teams and 1 NZ team and they'd still never admit that we could do well. That's how ABNZ they are.
>>68017751
Obviously. PP are good at T20s and the BBL dilutes the Australoan player base

>>68017775
>LE ILL FIX CRICKET LMAO
>>68017751
>>68017760
there's no point discussing this because they wouldn't be
the whole point of the BBL is that it runs parallel to international cricket, not in spite of it like the IPL. So obviously the NZ international season would be going on at the same time as the BBL and those players wouldn't be available.

>>68017863
Aren't like 90% of T20 teams these days 2 real bowlers + 4-5 meme slogging allrounders? I had Jacob Duffy in there before I remembered Milne exists.
>>68017863
Worker, Ryder, Munro, Bruce, Ellis and Worst McCullum are all meme allrounders of varying qualitites
>>68017876
No why would they be? In t20 its only really your top6 batters who do anything because if you are losing more than 4 wickets in 20 overs you are probably going to lose anyway
Most teams usually go with 4 specialist bowlers and 1 or 2 allrounders. Batting depth is only really important in ODis

Kek. Shut the fuck up and stop breathing. By YOUR own rhetoric, a team's performance defines the domestic structure. Hence, le Shield and le Sydney grade cricket is le finest first class league in the world. By that logic, even the Caribbean and New Zealand have superior t20 comps than Australia. Which is genuinely pathetic when you consider the money and investment Australia are putting into it.
But sure, YOU will KEEP moving the goalposts like the backpedalling coward crybaby bitch that YOU objectively are. Kek. Little babby can't handle his logic thrown in his face so he shits in his babby diapers.

Kek. Don't disrespect me, kid.
>>68018174
That's literally impossible. Krazyreddit will literally counter EVERYTHING. He is physically incapable of agreeing with anyone, ESPECIALLY people from NZ. Remember how he constantly used to go on about how the USA is a waste of ICC money? Well, get a load of this shit. Daniel can COMPLETELY regurgitate one of his OWN opinions, and he'll STILL FUCKING ARGUE IT.
>>68018211
Weak, even by your standards. You have nothing on me chinaman.

>>68018245
This is a piss poor statshandsome impression and you should be able to pick out exactly why that is.
>>68018255
Why the fuck would I want to impersonate you you insufferable shitbag.
>>68018115
Not me. Mark. Your form is fucking horrendous.
And most of the Australian team doesn't even play in the BBL so that is a moot point. BBL teams won the Champions trophy thing a couple of times so they can't be that bad.
>>68018245
I literally say right there that there is virtually no chance of the USA investment paying off you dimwit. I was explaining to him why they're doing what they are doing and why his idea is shit.
My opinion is simple: invest the money into the established but struggling cricket countries (ie yours) and the top associates. Africa and SE Asia are even bigger memes than the USA.

>>68018288
>Iran

>>68018320
Unstable to the point in which you can't play there out of fear of terrorism I mean
>>68018333
Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Northern Ireland, Zimbabwe, South Africa
I actually hate Rugby League enough I support Queensland
>>68018333
KEK, that's literally 90% of the cricket playing population
oi statscunt, you going to any of the games this summer?
>>68018302
Iran is far more stable than the rest of the Middle East. It's even more stable than Pakistan or Bangladesh, in that the clergy rules with an iron fist.
With sanctions being lifted and the Iranian economy being opened up to the world, plus a sizable Afghan/Pakistani crowd, there's potential to get the game some good traction upon introduction. Also India has been currying Iran's favour (kek) a lot as of late - they've been making a lot of the two countries' cultural ties, so there is a chance of cricket spreading in the region.
>>68018304
The Knockout trophies in the late 90s were an excellent way of getting exposure in new countries (Kenya, Bangladesh). Rather than shitty bilaterals, I'd propose we replace the Champions Trophies with promotional tournaments first in expat-heavy areas (Singapore, Malaysia), before trialling it in someplace more extreme (Indonesia, Nigeria). You'd need to back this up with grassroots funding too.
>>68018301
Ireland is almost there, and they're doing everything they possibly can to promote the game. It's the ICC kicking their legs out from under them.
>>68018333
Like I said, the Revolutionary Guard rules with an iron fist. As much as everyone around it hates Iran, their internal stability is similar to Saudi Arabia
>>68018372
Yeah, probably. Seething about the amount of BoreDIs, but I'll likely head down to the T20s.
>>68018389
That's actually a very good suggestion.
The only problem with that is Nigeria which is nearly Afghanistan-tier. Pick somewhere else, preferably with a better timezone and I think its a winner.
>>68018389
This is quite possibly more retarded than daniel's fairies and rainbows idea.
>>68018389
You're a fucking retard, women can't even attend soccer matches you fucking idiot.
How on earth is cricket going to expand into a country where women are barred from watching the games while also expanding the women's leagues?
>>68018428
sounds just like pakistan tbqh
>>68018406
Kek, still mad about not getting any tests you filthy fucking jafa?
>>68018425
If you're talking about his suggestion about playing comps in places like Malaysia, it is actually feasible.
They're talking about doing that shit with the USA anyway which is a complete waste of time. If they played it somewhere like Malaysia then the timezone would be good for the TV audience in both India and Australia.
I know nothing about facilities in Malaysia, that would seem to be the biggest stumbling block.
>>68018421
Nah not really, iirc the insurgency in Nigeria is largely restricted to the rural areas as opposed to the metropolitan cities where large chunks of the population lives. If you're able to have a promotional game in Lagos or someplace similar, it could work. Overall Africa is the last great expansion zone for all business, and Nigeria is one of the only countries that has its shit together to the point where expansion is feasible.
Very good point about the timezone, hadn't considered that at all.

>>68018856

>>68018593
Yeah I am. >We have one proper stadium with flood lights and a lot of other ones that are capable of holding day matches. It hosted a tri-series between Australia, India, and WI in 2006 and a lot of meme stuff since then.
The quality of the ground and the maintenance is actually decent enough to host international events even though the pitches are slow.
The main problem imo would be seating and weather. Currently, the ground has a capacity of 4k but I think they might be planning on increasing that soon. Also, it rains pretty much every day and tropical rain can really do harm to the ground. Other than that, they have all the facilities required to host international games and Malaysia's pretty safe.
There's actually a t20 league going on right now.
A lot of good cricketers have played on the ground including NZ's very own Williamson, Southee, Boult, Sodhi, and Anderson.
Also, I saw the u19 Ireland team at a mall near my house during the qualifiers.

I suppose all the extra revenue gained by selling out crowds would need to be spent on security so it evens out.
From what I'm gathering, the graph in here >>68037473 looks like a schedule list over like 3 years or something, which then re-shuffles based on where each team finished in the point. That pretty much guarantees two ashes series, two Ind-Aus series, two Ind-Pak series per cycle (provided those teams stay in the top 5-6 spots). That's even more ashes series than we currently have.
As long as he lets the boards pick how many tests they want, it's not too different from what currently happens.

I think including associates should be more about LOIs and WCs rather than tests, at least for now.
There's literally NO reason why the 50 over world cup shouldn't have more than 16 teams and the t20 wc even more than that. It's honestly the best way to grow the game and give associates a fair chance.
Also, ICC funded professional coaching should be one of the main strategies to help associates grow.
>>68038008
The biggest problem with the 2 league format is that countries make next to no money if they don't play tests against Australia, England and India. So any chance of Ireland or Afghanistan ever becoming competitive in tests is terminally derailed unless they play the Big 3.
I think we need to accept that any format that is only kept alive by the money of the big 3 should just die a slow, painful death and that we encourage the masses to accept GOAT20 instead. Test cricket, like the public school system is on suicide watch and should just be put out of its misery already.
>>68038078
>There's literally NO reason why the 50 over world cup shouldn't have more than 16 teams and the t20 wc even more than that. It's honestly the best way to grow the game and give associates a fair chance.
There are plenty of reasons. BoreDIs are 4 times the length of a soccer or rugby match, so you can't realistically cram 3-4 matches in a day like other world cups without having to forego broadcasting a few of them.
A lot of the Associates are genuinely awful and will get curbstomped even by the lower ranked ODI teams.
There's little to zero interest among the public to watch a Nepal vs Jersey game, which leads to shitty crowd attendances, increased costs and zero atmosphere.
The next World Cup is unironically going to be longer than the last one, even though it only has 10 teams. If the ICC insists on this one match per day meme, you're looking at a tournament that goes on longer than 2 months.
With that being said, a proper 16 team WT20 (4 groups of 4) would be ideal for growing the game, albeit at the expense of viewing quality. The last WT20 tourney was elite because of the teams being so evenly matched.
>>68038078
the 50 over world cup would be shit with too many teams because of the length of games. The T20 World Cup should include far more associates though
>Also, ICC funded professional coaching should be one of the main strategies to help associates grow.
I agree. I remember one of the guys in the Caribbean clubs said that the biggest problem in the region was the lack of PE teachers educated in cricket coaching and that they couldn't afford teaching them
>>68038195
>A lot of the Associates are genuinely awful and will get curbstomped even by the lower ranked ODI teams.
Well the WC should be a learning experience for them. Malaysia unironically beat Afghanistan about two years ago and look where they are now. The amount of exposure teams can get from tournaments like that is incredible. If Ireland didn't play and beat Pakistan in that 2007 WC, do you really think they would have the motivation to continue and become what they are now?
>There's little to zero interest among the public to watch a Nepal vs Jersey game,
Though I agree on Jersey, Nepal has pulled some of the biggest crowds in all of the games they've hosted.
>The next World Cup is unironically going to be longer than the last one, even though it only has 10 teams. If the ICC insists on this one match per day meme, you're looking at a tournament that goes on longer than 2 months.

I completely agree but even a 20 team wt20 would be appropriate consider how easy it is to have upsets in that format. Also, the lower ranked teams are developing pretty well right now so once again, it would be good exposure for them.
>>68038209
>the 50 over world cup would be shit with too many teams because of the length of games. The T20 World Cup should include far more associates though
Yeah a wt20 with more teams makes more sense.

The World Cup is the sports pinnacle event, not a fucking coaching clinic. The quality of the produce is crucial to its success. The only reason that the 14-team format even existed is because India and England are scared of getting eliminated in the group stages.
The rest of your arguements can be facilitated by the World T20. 50-over cricket simply has too much of a skill gap for the lower associates to compete. That's not an issue for flog20.

It makes sense what you're saying about the 50 over WC but I still think that there should be more than 10 teams for sure.
>The only reason that the 14-team format even existed is because India and England are scared of getting eliminated in the group stages.
They're making the WC smaller every year because any of the big 3 teams being eliminated in the group stages would hurt ICC revenue a lot. It's not the other way around. Reducing the number of group stage teams but keeping the same amount of eliminator teams increases their chance of getting past the qualifiers.
>>68038932
The ICC have more than enough money to provide temporary coaching to associates. Also, there's no shortage of professional coaches and ex-players who would be willing to coach associate nations in camps if paid by the ICC.
Honestly, just unironically thinking that some third grade Sydney team could beat them should that you don't know shit about associates. You also probably don't know anything about the ICC development program and have never seen associate camps or teams play, ever.
Stick to your fucking third grade Shitney competition 'Krazykasual'.

I agree with you that expanding the 50 overs is good, cricket's just not at that stage now.
Maybe in another 25 years when there are at least a dozen competitive countries we can look at 16 or 20 ODI teams. The ICC would still have to move away from a broadcasting based revenue model to facilitate this though. Like I said, we have one game a day because the head broadcaster insists on doing so.

>>68039146
The main ones I've seen are broadcasting and sponsorship/advertising. I'd like to see cricket look at online streaming as a source of revenue as well. TV broadcasting is far too outdated these days, but I guess it's still viable for the majority of the ICC's market, which is third world countries that lack internet streaming options.

I thought the "statscunt committed suicide after the Voges 200" was a total meme, but it appears he has instead been resurrected as someone who "never liked test cricket in the first place" despite knowing enough about it to spend a whole thread debating its future.
I'm not sure what I think about this development. It's certainly unique, but a tad depressing given that statscunt let krazykrejza's bullying get to him. The theory that my nemesis, Shitspouter, has assumed his identity, is a wholly fascinating idea, but at this point in time unlikely. I look forward to seeing how neo-statscunt develops.

Statscunt is Mark Chapman.
Mark harboured a long-lasting desire to represent New Zealand in test cricket. He saw this as the only way to shed his disgusting Chinese status, and be accepted as a New Zealander. It was all he ever wanted.
He made it into the fringes of the Auckland team last season, which heightened his interest in test cricket and fuelled his aggressive passion for it. Unfortunately, he was never able to make it, and saw his dream of playing first class, and eventually test cricket dissipate right in his medium sized eyes.
In March, Mark was in India representing Hong Kong in the WT20. This is a crucial detail, and explains his absence from 4chan. It was here that he realized not only the power of T20 in its ability to unite the fractured Windies, but finally understood that T20 was the only way forward. Having seeing the pathetic way the #1 team retreated from the tournament, he understood what the true test of skill and ability really was.
In May 2016, statscunt rose from the Ashes. Gone was the strict adherence to only "real cricket" - in fact, real cricket had changed. No more was it the insipid format he now called boreblock - he had renounced that. From here on out, all that matters to Mark is the greatness of t20 and the opportunities it beholds.
>>68039656
I probed his knowledge of Pauanui (and its environs) extensively. Coming from a family that bought their section off the Hoopers when they first subdivided Pauanui in the first place, he had good answers to my questions. Poofanui is full of people who have coastal land on the southern side of Waitemata, so an over the bridge address would be an aberration worth pursuing.

Of those the 'small 7' are all in varying levels of debt and financial insecurity to the extent that playing international cricket offers very little financial incentive for players relative to the offers on reward in T20 cricket. The West Indies have essentially collapsed as a Test-playing nation for this very reason.
Then you have the Big 3. The BCCI and ECB generate plenty of revenue but aren't exactly swimming in cash. Last year there were a few counties that would have folded if they weren't bailed out. The BCCI has to facilitate for a billion pooinloos. The only board that is really running large surpluses is CA for the reason that Australia has much lower operating costs than India or England which is why Australia is blowing millions on memes like womens cricket and the Matador Cup.
So as far as I see it, the only source of surplus revenue in world cricket is Cricket Australia. And good luck convincing them on the merits of paying for coaching in Malaysia and DR Congo.
>Honestly, just unironically thinking that some third grade Sydney team could beat them should that you don't know shit about associates.
You forget yourself. I am much, much better at cricket than you and I actually do know what I am talking about. Timm van der Gugten is one of the best bowlers going in associate cricket. He is a fantastic grade-level bowler but not quite good enough to make it professionally like most of us at that level.
Now he is just about the cream of associate cricket, the like of Scotland and shit aren't even close to his level. I was exaggerating when I said 3rd grade, but I really can't see any 1st grade side losing to any mid-level associate.

>You forget yourself. I am much, much better at cricket than you and I actually do know what I am talking about.
I was taking you seriously until you said that. Stop fucking pretending that is a legitimate reason to justifying cricket knowledge. I know guys in my uni year who are in top grade level sides and don't even have a fucking clue who is in the current NZ team, or any great bowlers. There are tons of good cricketers who don't know shit, they just play it for fun.
On the contrary, there are tons of people who have never played but know tons. Look at fucking Andy Zaltzman. He's never played in his life other than for memes, yet is literally a walking cricket reference guide. Same with George Dobell. Are you saying you know more than people PAID to know shit about cricket, JUST because you once played in a grade side? That's beyond retarded. You don't have to be good at something to know about it.
I'm not saying you know nothing, because you evidently know a lot, but using that as a reason is moronic and you know it.

I agree with you when we are talking about mass-consumed cricket.
However, when we're talking about understanding the level that associates play at, it is very relevant.
The part I forgot to include in my post is that I played with Tim for years**. The thing about associate cricket is, it doesn't have much exposure. It's only really televised during World Cup/World T20 probably, and that's just pyjama. Even autists like Zaltzman would have little idea how Papua New Guinea would fare in a 4-day game.
I do have a better idea because I have played with and against guys who play for Papua New Guinea. I have a first-hand account of having observed the level that these guys play at. So yeah I do have a much better of the talent in these teams than fucking Ankush

I don't disagree with you. As I said, your post was pretty much spot on. Mark Chapman is a top Auckland grade player, and is on the fringes of Auckland's FC team. Him being HK's best player is evidence to about where they sit. They would probably lose to Parnell (Chapman's grade side), who would obviously have nothing on a grade side in a larger city.
But just cut this bullshit superiority complex because you (allegedly) played some grade cricket once. It's objectively false, knowledge of cricket comes from studying the game more than playing it, and though the two go hand in hand, I know plenty of players who don't know shit. Ben Stokes is one, there was an interview in which he said "there are 13 year olds that know more about cricket than I do" or something like that, he just doesn't care about any of that shit.

I think both methods have merit. There is a reason that past players hold a near monopoly on punditry roles not just in this sport but in most sports (though I would say cricket is particularly unprofessional by the industry standard). And that reason is because, for better or worse, people place weight on the value of personal experience and the insight that affords.
There are scores of people in Australia who can bowl at around the ~130 mark but will never even come close to playing professionally when there are guys like Siddle and Bird who bowl at the same pace playing internationally. What I personally find is that my own experience from playing allows me to appreciate the differences between guys who are decent at the sport and the guys who are genuinely great. The short answer is that the reasons are almost completely genetic. Personally I find that the guys who often make the best pundits are former First-Class cricketers. These are the guys who were good at the game but understood what made the internationals better than them. They also don't have the arrogance and complacency of the guys who played internationally. Channel 9 commentary is essentially just an exercise in communal aggrandisement.
So when I talk about my own experiences, its not for the purpose of invoking an assumed superiority. Though I obviously do that at times, it's only in cases such as what just happened when you have a fucking 17 year old like Ankush who has probably never so much as watched these guys play telling me what's what. But I wouldn't say that my opinion is more valid than yours because I once played grade cricket, when clearly you know as much about the sport if not more than me.
What that is all to to say; while you don't have to have played the game to become an expert on it, you can't disregard the value of lived experiences either.
>>68039967
No, it's because they're recognisable and people know who they are.

Boult is really fucking ugly. Southee's alright though, I'd agree there
I don't know what England have done.

Kane's an opener anyway when this mongoloid plays.
Cummins is a legit 9/10 and you're a faggot if you think otherwise. Both he and Milne are perfect height, perfect build, and blessed with a solid jaw and facial aesthetics.
Broad is a babby face lanklet with JUST-tier hair
Anderson is alright, but has a miserable face that only looks better because of his haircut
Wood is the sort of lad you'd share a greasy kebab at 2 am with a peck on the lips but that's about it. You dumb faggot.
Finn is quite handsome(but maybe not "hot") considering he's 6'7".In a public schoolboy kinda way, he WOULD get quality pussy on a night out.
