Same game as hardball just no gloves or pads

Its good to see a game in my own backyard

Bowler bowling wides.
He gets a wicket

Wide again

8 overs per team

Shot 44444

First game of the season

I spoke to Abdul who is the organizer

Bad drop of a sitter in the deep

Thick grass slows any good hits

Game over and they shake hands

A good start of the mahwah cricket league]]>

The desperate situation of Pakistan’s former World Cup-winning captain and Prime Minister Imran Khan has reached a critical point. Imprisoned for three years on controversial corruption charges, the 73-year-old’s rapidly declining health—particularly a severe eye condition threatening his vision in his right eye—has sparked grave international concern. Imran’s sons, Kasim and Sulaiman, recently raised fears for his life during a Sky Sports interview at Lord’s, revealing he is kept isolated in a tiny cell for 23 hours a day without proper medical care. While the Pakistan government denies these claims and the PCB protested the broadcast, former England captain Michael Atherton and 22 global cricket icons have issued a humanitarian plea demanding immediate medical attention for the legend.

For legendary fast bowler Wasim Akram, watching his childhood hero and mentor endure such hardship is deeply personal. Setting politics aside, Akram expressed his emotional anguish over Imran's health, recalling how Khan shaped his career and life as a guiding force. Emphasizing that human compassion transcends political boundaries, Akram stressed that safeguarding Imran's health is paramount, regardless of legal or political disputes. International figures, including Steve Waugh and Sachin Tendulkar, share this deep respect for Khan, underscoring that his current suffering goes far beyond cricket.

Compounding this heartbreak is the complete freefall of Pakistan cricket on their tour of England. Prop-up at the bottom of the World Test Championship after losing 15 of their last 20 Tests, the team finds itself in chaos—fraught with internal disciplinary inquiries, squad dismissals, and coaching overhauls. Akram candidly pointed out that the crisis stems from deeper systemic failures, including a broken domestic first-class structure and a constant urge to "rip everything up" without patience. From Imran's distressing incarceration to a crumbling national team, one of cricket’s greatest nations now stands at a historic and painful crossroads.

Bourda opened in the eighteen eighties and for well over a century it was the home of Test cricket in Guyana, and the only Test ground anywhere in the world below sea level. The whole coast sits below the Atlantic, held back by the wall and the kokers, but at Bourda you could actually feel it. The field lay in a bowl. Rain did not run off it, it settled, and a shower that would cost twenty minutes at any other ground could take a session or swallow a day whole.

What people actually remember, though, is not the drainage. It is the noise. The Bourda crowd was famous right across the cricketing world, and those wooden stands were part of the instrument. People brought their own food, their own strong opinions and, in a few well documented cases, their own trumpet. Visiting players talked about that ground for the rest of their careers.

Test cricket moved out to Providence in 2007 and the old place went quiet. The stands are still standing. So is the grass, and so is the strange fact of a cricket field lying below the Atlantic Ocean with nothing but an earth wall in between. ?
