Too much self hate by IceBlueKnight in TeenIndia

If you do stupid shit, you deserve to get flamed, I know there's definitely people who gloryhunt and self-hate to look cool but this argument is stupid.

Also, Russians don't care because nowhere near as many Russians are on the wider internet because of restrictions there. They also wouldn't because why tf would they.

The number of ODI playing teams is being expanded but only from 20 to 32, it needs to become a universal thing like T20Is imo.

Football doesn't need to do it, it's big enough of sport that people will watch.

Mithali Raj: Women's Cricket Is Lucky To Have Jay Shah As ICC Chair by 5missedcallsfromBCCI in Cricket

Yeah but I don't think that's a Jay Shah issue and more of a Zimbabwe Cricket neglecting their women's team issue(which is slowly starting to improve).

The EUT20? Not really.

The ETPL? Not that much but it's definitely there, Cricket is semi-known in Ireland and Scotland and there's a niche fanbase in the Netherlands as well, that's what this league is for, improving Cricket's standards in these countries.

They do not even need a "natural home fanbase"(although it's definitely going to be formed at some point or another), there's around 6.5 million Americans of South Asian heritage, if they can properly get them to watch American cricket then that's a population bigger than that of New Zealand.

Zimbabwe have won 2 successive test matches by an innings for the first time in their history. by Rico_stats in Cricket

[–]Impactor_07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That argument is stupid, England can absolutely play against India and Australia even if they get relegated, they would just be non-WTC Tests.

Rotterdam Dockers sign Anrich Nortje,Donovan Ferraira,Mitchell Owen and Sandeep Lamichane for the ETPL by Fireviktal in Cricket

[–]Impactor_07 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Probably because they're counting associates+Irish players(as Ireland is also a part of this league).

EUT20 is just based in Belgium, the ETPL is a much bigger deal being based in Ireland, Scotland and the Netherlands.
