ICC World Cricket League Division One

[Leicester Fox]

don't they have the facilities or does no-one want it?

 

[andrew_nixon]

Matches have been broadcast from all these grounds before, so it's a case of no-one showing it.

 

[Leicester Fox]

Not even over the web?

Nowhere.

I guess it's back to watching the games cards on cric info then.

Personally I think it's because the station's realise the quality of cricket played isn't good enough to satisfy people. I would have to agree with this, although then it does beg the question as to why I will go and watch a club game when I am not playing? Interesting situation.

It's better than international bowls. and more people would watch it

Or on CricketEurope, where we're nearly always ahead of cricinfo on the live scores, and where we actually care about non-test cricket.

You agree with it? Not seen any scorecards or reports from the tournament then?

It would be a risk by Sky etc to broadcast it, but I would certainly watch it. Especially with the tight finishes that have already occured in the series. That Kenya v Ireland game was simply incredible. Ireland have 2 century makers but still fail to win because of a 36 ball 61 from the Kenya no.9. That is better entertainment than some of the cricket in the CB series etc.

I don't think you understand the context of my post. I am not saying the games aren't competitive or full of thrillers and big scores. I am saying the quality of player and general play will obviously not be as good as expected from International cricket.

In case no one noticed, The final match in on at the moment with Scots on 59/2 from 15 overs.

Scotland not looking too good.

 

[Leicester Fox]

This match is beyond the scots but the Kenyans are batting really slowly.

Interesting to see Hair umpiring again! he's taking legal action against the ICC isn't he?

 

[andrew_nixon]

Where have you been? He's been umpiring in the Kenyan ODIs for the last three weeks!
