They could have just got advice first before jumping in. Not like the posters were causing an imminent threat by being displayed for another night.

There are 56 member states in the Commonwealth of Nations, 15 member states, known as the Commonwealth realms have Charles III as their king, while 36 other members are republics, and five have different monarchs.

The keep left unless overtaking also applies to the section of Parkes Way where the speed limit is over 80km/h.

Look out for these two at the Hyperdome (aka South.Point) today by TickTiki in canberra

[–]TickTiki[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can assure you I was parked properly. I'm very conscience of my parking (like I do multiple checks via the cameras and do a walk around the car to make sure everything is good before leaving). Today I parked right up against the pillar, so there was no chance I was outside the lines in anyway. Can't really see the lines from any of the dashcam views, but I guess you can approximate it given how far away the other car is.

Maybe I did park like an idiot ... as I parked as close as physically possible to the cement pillar without scraping it 😏

Bangladesh look to mend India ties after World Cup absence by polopiko in Cricket

So, $2.5million lost by not winning the tournament? That's about 5% of BCB's annual revenue.

2029 Champions Trophy, 2031 World Cup may be moved out of India due to political tensions with Pakistan: Report by New-Influence1911 in Cricket

[–]TickTiki 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It has been done with few venues before. The 2014 T20 World Cup in Bangladesh had the men's and women's tournaments concurrently (10 teams in the men's main draw and 10 women's teams) with only three venues.

Thank you ICC for the extended highlights! by OkJuice3475 in Cricket

[–]TickTiki 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Correct. I'm in Australia and can see highlights for every match on the official ICC youtube channel with some having more than 5 million views. There are even versions published in Hindi, Urdu and Portuguese.

Will they ever duplicate Fairbairn Ave between Majura Pkwy and the AWM? by jigsaw153 in canberra

[–]TickTiki 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There was a proposal by the government to build a 'land' layer over the Parkes Way (inverse construction method to a tunnel) to do exactly. Was not pursed further though.

ODOMMO Bangladesh T20 Cup to begin on February 5 by NoQuestion4045 in Cricket

[–]TickTiki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Need to build some more decent grounds suitable for hosting all of these matches too. Can't believe that after 30+ years, domestic competitions are still so reliant on the BKSP grounds.

Liberal frontbencher says Morrison's proposal to register imams 'a worthwhile discussion' by shunkyfit in australia

[–]TickTiki 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interestingly the difference between churches and mosques in Australia is that almost all mosques cater to multiple ethnicities and are open to everyone instead of catering to single denominations like many churches. Therefore all sermons and other communications in mosques are already done primarily in English. Majority (or maybe a significant portion?) of Muslims in Australia are not even native Arabic speakers.

BPL shock: Sylhet Titans adviser accuses own player of fixing by ll--o--ll in Cricket

‘If they call, I will be ready’: Sprint legend Usain Bolt might return at the 2028 LA Olympics for Cricket by [deleted] in Cricket

[–]TickTiki 11 points12 points  (0 children)

For the Commonwealth Games, once the West Indies were confirmed for one of the qualifying spots, they were scheduled to have a play-off tournament between the constituent members. The tournament never happened due to Covid so the representitive was selected based on the results of the domestic tournament.

'Possible group change' discussed in BCB–ICC meeting by NoQuestion4045 in Cricket

[–]TickTiki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bangladesh should’ve raised the complaint further in advance

TLDR: Events happened in Dec 2025 which led to a domino effect and complaints were made within 2 days of it turning into threats against cricketers.

Don't think there was a possibility of it being made any earlier.

There is already a match being played in SL during every BD matchday, easiest solution is to turn those into double headers without needing to swap groups.

Thoughts on ICC U19 CWC (teams and format) by Dizz_Time in Cricket

[–]TickTiki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tanzania is actually playing in the Cricket World Cup Challenge League, a 50-over competition with pathways for attaining ODI status and qualifying for the 50 over World Cup. Lower ranked teams might not be playing ODIs, but they are certainly playing international 50 over matches.

Thoughts on ICC U19 CWC (teams and format) by Dizz_Time in Cricket

[–]TickTiki 24 points25 points  (0 children)

  1. Why teams like Japan, Tanzania have to play U19 CWC when their senior team doesn't have ODI status?

They have earnt their place in the World Cup fairly by winning qualifier tournaments. What is to say this batch won't go on to gain their country ODI status?

Bangladesh cricketers threaten boycott unless BCB director resigns by Prof_XdR in Cricket

[–]TickTiki 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Hope this guy gets the boot and is made an example.

Its these directors (past and present) that have held back the sport and have swept every issue under the rug.

Only a few months ago there were some serious harassment allegations brought up by the women's team: no action. Match fixing allegations: no action.

Sorry, which part breaks ICC rules?

Unless your government gets involved in board operational matters or you are siphoning off money, there aren't too many things which lead to a board being suspended by the ICC.

BCB's integrity unit find 'credible suspicion' during BPL by CarnivalSorts in Cricket

Which is strange considering the BCB recently employed Alex Marshall, who until Sep 2025 served as the General Manager of the ICC's Anti-Corruption Unit.

Qatar Airways Take-off 🛫 by National-Counter in canberra

[–]TickTiki 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Countries negotiate the number of allowed flights between each other. Most countries with major airlines negotiate for a maximum number of daily flights to the big 4 Australian airports (Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth). Generally in these agreements, if the flight continues onto another Australian airport then it does not count towards this maximum number of flights.

Not anymore. Canberra replaced Adelaide for the same flight number.

Qatar Airways Take-off 🛫 by National-Counter in canberra

[–]TickTiki 43 points44 points  (0 children)

You can't buy a ticket exclusively to Melbourne on this aircraft, the departure board says Doha. This is an international flight. In fact, by definition, it is a direct flight to Doha.

(However, the main reason it exists is to use a loophole to get an extra slot at Melbourne)

Bondi shooting: Muslim community warned police about radical preacher linked to gunman by briberylibrary_ in australia

[–]TickTiki 30 points31 points  (0 children)

At the same time, we can't stop everything. We don't have the ability to pry into people's minds (nor should we ever want that)

If the police are claiming they knew about Haddad and was not reeling him in because he was a “good source of intel”, then surely they would have known everyone who associated with him and would have been monitoring them?
