Namibia took on Netherlands in the first of two Group A fixtures today at Kardinia Park in Geelong. Namibia won the toss and chose to bat but found runs tough to score at times. Namibia eventually managed a very modest 6/121 from their 20 overs, Jan Frylinck managed 43 from 48 balls on a track...
In the Group B Round One matches, Scotland were too good for West Indies today, the second upset result in the first two days of the tournament. Scotland posted 5/160 from their 20 overs, led by George Munsey's 66 not out from 53 balls. Jason Holder was West Indies' best with the ball, taking...
The Netherlands chased down UAE's total with one ball to spare. UAE struggled on the deck and could muster only 8/111 but bowled very well to keep themselves in the game until the very last over as the Netherlands reached 7/112 from 19.5 overs.
Tomorrow sees the first game of Group B with...
What a win by Namibia! Sri Lanka all out for 108 with Namibia winning by 55 runs. A big upset in the scheme of things but the Namibians were very impressive in the latter part of their innings and with the ball too. A fantastic first up win for them which puts them in good stead within their...
Impressive comeback from Namibia, they were 6/93 from 14.2 overs but recovered to post 7/163 from their 20 overs. Sri Lanka are 4/72 from 10 overs and have steadied somewhat after losing four early wickets.
Unsurprisingly, there was no play in the official warm-up matches today with Melbourne having had 44mm of rain in the last 36 or so hours.
However, Western Australia played India in another unofficial warm-up match in Perth today. WA were sent into bat by India and scored 8/168 off 20 overs...
One of the issues will be at the top of the order with Finch struggling. The middle order has had its issues of late as have the bowling attack. Tim David has been a good addition though and will certainly add some strength to the middle order if he can get going.
Today's game between Netherlands and West Indies was abandoned without a ball bowled due to rain.
Tomorrow sees three games to be played. Namibia take on Zimbabwe at 11:00 local time (0:00 UTC) while Ireland face Sri Lanka from 15:00 local time (4:00 UTC) with both of those games at Junction...
Sri Lanka took on Zimbabwe in the first of today's games at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Sri Lanka were sent into bat and made 5/188 from their 20 overs, Kusal Mendis top scored for the Lankans with 54 from 29 balls while Wanindu Hasaranga de Silva whacked 37 from 14 balls at the end to really...
The official and unofficial warm-up matches started today. Scotland beat The Netherlands in an official warm-game today at Junction Oval in Melbourne, Scotland posted 7/151 in 20 overs with Richie Berrington top scoring with 41 from 29 balls while Michael Leask chipped in with 37 runs from 21...
No worries. Could also classify Perth as sub-tropical given the Mediterranean climate. Perth is also one of the windiest cities in the world too and one of the most isolated.
There's some difference. Perth has a hot-summer Mediterranean climate which is characterised by long, hot and dry summers with mild, wet winters. Summer tends to go for four months from December to March which is generally hot with little rainfall, the heat tends to be very dry and temperatures...
The 2022 ICC T20 World Cup commences in October with Australia hosting the latest edition of the tournament. Australia come into the tournament as the defending champions, having won the 2021 edition held in the UAE which was supposed to be held in Australia. That tournament was postponed due to...
As for the actual weather, the temperature today was 28.9 degrees and sunny, 29 degrees forecast for tomorrow and then 27 degrees on Saturday with plenty of sun on both days. It'll be partly cloudy and sunny with temperatures in the mid 20's for the next few days after that before the rain...
Yes, we have two with a third to be built and opened in 2028.
I believe they are electricity operated but there is a focus on making sure they don't use too much power. The energy used to provide water for an entire family of four over one day is the same as running an air conditioner here for...
In the past, the majority of our water was provided by dams which serviced the city adequately for over 100 years. However, the explosion of the city's population in the last 30 years has increased demand for water and coupled with the general drying of the area due to climate change plus...
