It's nice to see smaller teams like Daraz touring West Indies, hopefully we can see teams like Ireland Afghanistan Zimbabwe and Bangladesh tour as well

I don't like Bangladesh dropping Shahriar after just three games for a proven failure like Anamul Haque. The former's arguably the most exciting batsman you've got since Sabbir Rahman and Liton Das/Nurul Hasan on a good day, surely he deserves a much longer rope? Especially given that he is actually an opener and a powerplay hitter is exactly what they are lacking at the moment.
Afif Hossain's stats on paper also look really average but I genuinely feel like he is sometimes the only Bangladeshi cricketer who feels like a true T20 cricketer. Other than the legendary Fizz of course.

An IPL team needs to pick up Rilee Rossouw next year. Just hit Mattie McKiernan for 34 in an over. 87 from 33 balls and still five overs left.

Wondering if Sri Lanka will still be able to host the Asia Cup in August. Australia and Pakistan are still in the country.

Bangladesh Likely to Host Asia Cup in August- Report
Bangladesh have previously hosted the Asia Cup in 2016 and also hosted the T20 World Cup, two years earlier, where the Lankan Lions beat India to lift the trophy.

I hope the pitches are going to be better than the last four series hosted by Bangladesh.

The three-match one-day series against the Proteas is off, putting their direct World Cup…

I have no idea why South Africa wants to pull out here. Its very baffling tbh. They are truly going to jeopardize direct qualification hopes for the CWC 2023. Going by the current standings, the Qualifier would be a treat to watch in that case...

If you at it, that's the only option available for them.
Sri Lanka- cannot host due to political unrest
India & Pakistan- cannot host each other and wont play in the other nation
UAE- too expensive for the ACC
I'd rather they try and host it in an Associate Nation like Oman, Singapore, Malaysia, Nepal. Allow the host direct qualification. That is the only way the game can grow in the region.

Yeah, it's beyond ludicrous. They're doing so, it doesn't clash with their new T20 league (is what I've read)South Africa withdraw from January ODI series | cricket.com.au

Honestly, it'd be funny if they failed to qualify for the World Cup because of this. Probably unlikely but I hope that's what happens.Yeah, it's beyond ludicrous. They're doing so, it doesn't clash with their new T20 league (is what I've read)
And this is their 3rd attempt at setting up a league.
Last year during the IPL, their captains Bavuma and Elgar had voiced their concerns over a large number of players preferring the leagues instead of the country. Guess, it all boiled down to nothing.
Massive shame if they end up missing out on direct qualification. Again, as aforementioned, by the looks of it, it seems highly likely at this moment.
