What a finish to the tour! 4 teams finished on 12 points and we managed to stay up with a convincing win on Day 5. Given the ratings, I would say we did a good job with 3 wins.

Amazing tour for Craig Lesbirel! Got his highest OD score on Day 5 and then took 3 wickets and a Runout to keep us in Div 1!

Good job there!
I see Lesbirel everywhere! Lesvo must feel like a proud parent!

Horrible tour. Don't really want to recap that one
Lots to think about before the WC. Let's hope you have better luck with the U20s

Great start to the tour with a 86 run win.
Salih was the start with the ball today. (5/19 in 10)
Wije (68*), Kaushal (40) and Pieris (43) all chipped in with the bat.
Up next - Kenya on Dry/Cloudy

Not so good second game. Not a bad score, but none of the bowlers seems to get going.
Next game against Bangladesh on Crumbling/Sunny

Disappointing tour again. It is probably time to do some house cleaning.

Crowdsourcing time! I want to hear your opinion on bowling choices. Our pitches are Crumbling, Uneven, Green, Slow, Hard.
What would be your breakdown of bowling types?
2 ARs (Lesbirel is one. Dayasiri Wijesiriwardene (RFM)/Ranjit Bowen (RM)/Angelo Mathews (RM) for the other)
7 more bowlers to pick

3x spin 4 x seam(3xFM/F, 1xM)
Probably going with 3 spinners on the crumbling and slow, one on each of the others.
Take one of the M ARs, play both Ms on the green and slow to have pacers fit for the game on hard.
Will leave you with 2 spinners on hard though, not sure how you feel about that.

Thanks for the response. 2 spinners on day 5 should be ok. Maybe we should take 3 and 6 and play 3,1,1,2,1 ?
Wish Green and Slow were not back to back. Makes it hard to manage

Good start to the T20 WC with a 5 run win against UAE on Crumbling. Good bowling from all the spinners ensured we got the win despite being outrated 11K.
Next match is against
Bermuda on Uneven/Sunny
