This is a huge margin considering that It’s joy the best team of UAE and still they could easily manage to win the match by sparing 3 overs is a significant thing. This would boost up the confidence of the other players and team management as well.

Ok this is the best I could find regarding the telecast of the T20 world cup matches. Here you can find all the official broadcasters of ICC T20 world cup matches. You can find the broadcasters belonging to your specific region. Maybe they won't cover each and every qualifier matches. But you can see a few live matches through these broadcasters. Hope it helps 

Its good to see that the T20 world cup is becoming like the Football world cup with a lot more teams playing for a spot in the T20 world cup finals. I've been watching some of these matches that they do telecast and its good to see so many different countries now playing cricket. One team that has been playing well is PNG but today will be a big test for them as they play Scotland, I would like to see this match but not sure if it will be live streaming.

I think that he was mentioning about players such as Tim Murtagh, who chose to play for Middlesex rather than representing Ireland. From this year onward, the Irish players are counted as overseas players in county cricket and they need to retire from international cricket if they want to be counted as local players. The only player who has chosen Ireland over county cricket is Paul Stirling. He was associated with Middlesex for more than 10 years, but retired from county cricket when the management asked him to stop playing for Ireland. Boyd Rankin was lucky, as he managed to sign as an overseas player.

And it should be remembered that the best player Ireland has ever produced (Eoin Morgan) was stolen by England without giving any sort of compensation to the Irish board. Now many of their star performers, such as Tim Murtagh, Stuart Poynter and Peter Chase have decided to go for county cricket rather than representing Ireland. Cricket in Ireland will never be viable if this situation continues. If their best players refuse to represent the national side, then how are they going to be successful?

Follow up news on The Hundred Draft. check info and other details from their Website. and it starts from 17 July 2020.

Teams are finalized and surprisingly i don't see big name such as Chris Gayle, Malinga and Rabada. anyway here is complete list of players who get picked by 8 teams (price bracket included).

^ Yeah, i am looking forward to it. though it didn't receive good response in Social Media from die hard county fans let's see what happens. I hope BCCI comes with similar thingy in future atleast for domestic players apart from Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.

Afghani spinners and Sandeep from Nepal are in demand as far as any Short-format leagues are concern. Good for individual players who get to sign Kolpak deals and reaping the benefits but SA's skipper raised concerned about these Kolpak deals recently.

Well.. if I am not wrong, then Indian players (including the domestic players) are banned from taking part in the T20 leagues which are being run by the other boards. Only the retired players are eligible for such tournaments. If you remember, Yuvraj Singh retired from international and first class cricket, before signing up for the Global T20 tournament in Canada.

A few other Asian players are there in the tournament apart from the Afghans. I could see Shadab Khan and Mohammad Amir in the list, and they represent Pakistan. There is not much room for the international cricketers, as only 3 are permitted in each team (as opposed to 10 for the IPL). May be they'll increase this number in the future.

Restricting domestic players is too harsh as they will gain experience if they are playing in these tournaments so the BCCI wants to promote IPL and nothing else and if all the cricketing boards starts their own leagues and restrict them to play elsewhere we would see an IPL event with only Indian player .

Even in the IPL only four foreign players are allowed in the playing eleven. So there are restriction on how many foreign players you add to the team, these tournaments might help young talents and it might help groom the young talents.

As far as i understand Kolpak is a residency rule which comes under Europeon union, this rule allow athletes (cricketer) to participate in county cricket (English) with one twist that they can't represent their home country. that's why we see cricketers from another country migrate to England. South Africa losing good amount of domestic players because of this. Brexit might sort things out in this regard. 

100 ball cricket is a English league.



BCCI doesn't provide NOC to any Indian players. which sucks but when you look at big picture then its smart move from BCCI.
