DVCA Off-Season 2022

[The Rumor Mill]

A few of us were talking tonight and this idea came up. Last year we started Nov 13th and played all 1 dayers, as suggested by one of us; just scrap the next 2 weeks, get the racing out of your system and kick off fresh on Nov 12th for a 1 day season. That way you're also giving the grounds some time to dry out and get ready. I know our home ground will take at least 2 weeks to get match ready, virtually 0 chance of the game on Saturday going ahead, even if it stops raining now.

NMCA have gone this way and announced it

Any news on the senior comps? They going to make changes or?

 

[Yes No! Sorry]

Nmca proactive and ahead of the curve once again

Seems like a real common sense decision, backed by proactive action from their exec and fixturing personnel.

If that’s what’s required, then the answer to your question is no.

Anyone smarter than me advise why umpires are still not holding the caps?

Just wait for the media to beat up this new wave of chinaflu, we could be back to masks and no drinks soon enough, especially after the election.

Must be annoying when your tin foil hat blows away because the umpire won't hold it

I don't take it off, never know who might be trying to read your brainwaves.

 

[Underarm28]

Chances of playing this weekend are?

I think we will play, looks like Friday will be fine then the rain will come in Saturday evening and keeps going through to Wednesday, so the T20 might cop it again.
