Most likely after Xmas. Would be more sensible to have a 18 round competition with Tuesday T20s for points (1sts only) and Saturday 1 day games if starting late or after Xmas. While I applaud people for thinking outside the box, I don't think the idea of 40 over matches split over 2 tuesdays is...
Pretty clear in the rules and regulations. Similar wording for subbies and premier.
E145 Pitches – Care of E145.1 In Grand Final matches, the pitch shall not be watered at any time between 10:00am Saturday and the actual finishing time on Sunday on any weekend in which play has been scheduled...
From my understanding it was pretty clear the watering and repair of the footholes was intentional and designed to limit the impact of St Albans spin bowlers. YCCC been trying to play it off as an honest mistake by the curator, but surely the curator who has 30 years experience doing wickets...
Anyone hear about what happened at YCCC on Saturday night/Sunday morning? Apparently YCCC curator filled in the footmarks all over the pitch with soil and water to patch the footmarks up. St Albans not happy and the game started late on Sunday. I am guessing the game will be played under protest...
I think Cricket Victoria would be open to running the competition, however they are relying on clubs to advise them that's what they want. I am guessing if a number of clubs got together and raised their concerns with CV then they may look further into it.
Which clubs need saving from themselves? Most clubs are well run and able to generate enough cash to cover expenses. The problem isn't as bad as football clubs where some clubs are spending upwards of $400k on player payments before you get to other running costs.
Divisional structure will change so that there will not be a split division under senior division. THus allowing only 1 up and 1 down for promotion relegation
I think you will find there are many other cricket comps which the VTCA competes with for top level talent especially overseas players.
I would suggest VTCA are in competition for local players in the 23-27 year old and above market as, these players choose whether to play at that level (and...
I think the "no" was predicated on the salary cap in the form and rules presented.
I think most clubs would be in favour of some kind of salary cap arrangement, however the rules and procedures including the proposed caps for each grade + having the VTCA administer would make it detrimental to...
A three point deduction is quite significant and is almost 10 per cent of the cap itself especially after a period of stability in the points where clubs are comfortable with the cap. While you might have guys dropping points for loyalty, it's hard for clubs who have a couple of low pointers...
If Cricket Victoria actually sent out a survey to the clubs asking whether they would prefer alternative management, then I think they would find out that is what they want.
At the moment we have clubs who want change and a move to the southern bayside model, but do not have the means or...
Spot on. Couldn't get any more illogical with the divisional structure. They said the split of divisions between west and north didnt work at the lower divisions, then decide to implement at the top level!
We asked the VTCA about whether we could play one of our kids who has been playing in Premier Cricket. They were a bit vague, but they seemed to say that if they played on the Saturday in Premier Cricket then they were not eligible to play on the Sunday.
