CLT20

Ok...So Guyana has lost thier first two games and now very likely that they will not make the second round of the Champions league.

But wanted to comment on what Dwayne Bavo said  - that T&T has the best t20 side in the Caribbean. That may be true, but what a terrible thing for a pro sportsman to say. I mean hat is literral bragging and hello, it is Guyana who made it to the champions league!
I wanted to point out again, that this T20 game is not actual cricket, just a swag and brag for a few overs, and lesser players and teams can make it big time, once they out perform anyone for a few overs.

So, it is with no surprise Mr Bravo acted the way he acted(for those of you who saw the game) towards Sarwan.
Lo and behold, him and his compratiot Shid pik Pollard, is by no means worthy of international repute in the cricketing world, by their non-achievements on the International Stage. Hey, Pollad (yeay pollad), could not even make an impression against lowly rated Zimbabwe when they last toured the West Indies.

Anyway, that's it and there will be more bashing...later on...send me your comments

Just Chillin...

Just to want to let you know thtat the Canadian Softall Cricket Association is running a great tournament each year. Lots of Guyanese in that tournament and most of them are also leading the standings in both batting and bowling. As a matter of fact, my cousin is in the top five batsmen this week, Ramnarine Persaud. You can check thier site for stats and info out at this link - http://www.canadiansoftballcricket.com/.

Cheers......

IPL........what a bore

The IPL (Indian Cricket League) is once again turning out to be a bore, with the addition of two more teams Pune and Kochi, the tournament now consists of 74 games (14 more than the previous editions!).

I have said before that the tournament is too long and now it is even longer. This Twenty20 game is also killing the pure format of the game - Test Cricket.

All over the world there is t20 craze, because of the money involved, with India's IPL being the biggest spender. The dearth of Test cricket is even closer now, with more and more of these matches. The IPL gets so boring because of the amount of matches and  - over and over you see the teams and the same commentators yapping over and over. Some of these commentators also don't know how to commentate...!!

WI Cricket

OK...Seriously:

Pollard, Dwayne Smith, Ryan Hinds...to name a few, these guys are sooooo good in WI domestic cricket, but on the international stage, what a joke!

Time and again, I have seen these guys in domestic cricket murdering other regional players, only to be disappointed when they represent WI....what a shame our cricket is in.
Here is hoping we can turn things around...that will take a lot....

More to come.
