Thankfully signs like that are no longer in use, though one does sometimes seem them in museums or for sale as collector's items.

Gina,

I have to admit my disappointment. I suspect you are White, like me, and I am a bit flummoxed.

When you said there were more important things, sadly, you lost me.

Many have taken ill gotten gains and fled....mainly to us sadly.

This forum is not important in the scheme of things, neither is washing our cars.

I have campaigned for far too long and I am not expecting perfection, but I expect better.

Sorry Mail. I'm really not sure what the problem is. I just don't think that cricket should be a top priority when it comes to solving the country's problems. Affirmative action can only ever provide opportunities for a select few. I really want the black cricketers to succeed but I also want our team to stay on top, which means we need the best players available at international level. I really hope that both things can happen but at the end of the day neither of them will help all the starving people.

Starvation is about distribution of wealth so my issue was your correlation.


Affirmative action or not only a few cricketers get to international level.


The issue was about equal opportunities and access.


I do however note your position Gina.

KaydenAmir Jangoo’s unbeaten 104 and Keacy Carty’s 95 helped West Indies scale a 322-run chase against Bangladesh in St Kitts. They won the series 3-0 after Jangoo became the first West Indian in 46 years to score a century on ODI debut. He guided the side in two fast-paced partnerships. It is also the fourth time that West Indies successfully chased a 300-plus target in ODIs.(13.12.2024, 19:36)(19:36)0

SalmaBy intertwining politics with sports, the BCCI has placed international cricket in a precarious position. Fully support the PCB's stance against the hybrid model - especially since Pakistan (despite security concerns) has toured India five times, including a bilateral white-ball series, post-26/11. It's time for the ICC and its Board of Directors to uphold fairness and assert their authority(28.11.2024, 15:07)(15:07)0
SalmaWest Indies won their first Test at home in two-and-a-half years when they beat Bangladesh in the first Test in Antigua by 201 runs. The visitors' chase of 334 was brought to a close at 132 for 9 on the fifth morning, just an over after Alzarri Joseph struck No. 11 Shoriful Islam on the back of his shoulder. The Bangladesh physio didn't clear Shoriful to continue his innings, thus bringing the curtains down on the game as Shoriful retired hurt.(28.11.2024, 13:35)(13:35)0

Annabella?Motie the batsman!? Its becoming a habit. He came in at117/8 and left at 166/9

Motie smashed 33(14)

He is world Number 2 bowler but probably wants a promotion to Motie the all rounder.
