For me Daryll Mitchell is New Zealand main batsman these days, how many centuries can he score in international cricket in the next 7 years

 

[pillowprocter]

My stat of the day: Kieron Pollard has scored over 2,500 Twenty20 runs since his last score of 60+.

this figure is 0 now

India jersey to have official Champions Trophy logo with Pakistan imprint: BCCI

Indian team jersey will feature host Pakistan's names during the Champions Trophy, BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia said on Wednesday, 22 January. Saikia quashed the rumours that the BCCI wanted Pakistan's name to be removed from the Champions Trophy logo for their jersey.

I normally don’t praise the oligarchy but credit to BCCI for giving in and wearing the logo!

We have an absolutely huge Best Premier League moment unfolding today..

Durbar Rajshahi have fielded an all-local XI for their game against Rangpur today as their foreign players have gone on strike due to non-payment.

Rangpur are at full strength, but their overseas players are so bad that they're getting absolutely flattened anyway.

This is also separate to the Chittagong Kings fiasco; when pressed about which their owner said words to the effect of "Of course I haven't paid [Parvez Hossain] Emon because I'm the owner and I don't want to."

What a league.

i strongly disagree with this part, Khushdil Shah is the MVP of the tournament so far by a long way, and Akif Javed has taken 16 wickets @ 12...

That is a good counterpoint, though I would note that if Khushdil Shah and Akif Javed are bossing a tournament this hard that is (a) a reflection of the standard of the tournament as a whole and (b) a tournament I'm about to go back and watch all the highlights of
