    Found out about this about 10 days back, yesterday I was the photographer for the Final.

    It was surprisingly well played for being cricket in America.

    I've known about the local oval since it was built. I was hoping we'd get that series of T20 WC qualifiers, but Covid scotched that.

    With there being no "Major" League Cricket as of yet, I'm guessing the stars from MiLC will be pulled away once that starts, but given they're only planning 6 teams in the senior "single entity" league, I don't know how much the quality will drop in the minor league circuit (already at 27 teams).

    The fact that the season is basically two months long asks some questions. Basically it just means the league isn't what most Americans would think of as a professional sports team league, but more of a "made for television" annual event. With the owners of Willow TV being among the major investors, this isn't a shock.

    The day was great (I missed the semis as I was working for UNC Football on Saturday), and I hope I get a chance to work with MiLC or MLC again.

    As far as I understand it, Major League Cricket will begin play in 2023. That is the plan so far.

    That's the current plan. 6 big city SEM teams with MiLC still continuing as a locally owned regional semi-pro circuit.

    It'll be interesting to see how long the "season" is.

    Hundreds of millions of people around the world are crazy about cricket. And most of them are indifferent to other sports. Thanks to cricket are the second most popular sport in the world after soccer, and the number of devoted fans is steadily surpassing all other team games - from baseball to hockey. I am, of course, an avid fan, but because I have no opportunity to attend games, I have only to watch on TV. Of course, I play, but only in Fantasy Cricket Games in India. I can't play sports because my health doesn't allow me to.

    Can't wait for the T20 WC to come to the US in 2024. I am actually going to the Windies v England Test #1 in March (Antigua). So, if there is really a cricket league coming to the US in 2023, I am all on-board!

    If you want your online casino to be a success, you need good software. If you complement it with quality game content, you get an online casino where the player will feel comfortable and enjoy playing. Good software is a ready-made solution with a set of features. What features are important and what else you should pay attention to before buying online casino software? Before buying software, it is a good idea to compare the options offered by different companies. Get in touch with the managers of the companies that sell online casino software. If you don't, you run the risk of choosing the wrong one. Your casino may be missing some parameters that are important to you. For the same reason, as well as for safety reasons, you should not buy a script on the Internet "from hand". In many ways to promote my online casino, I focus on wolf winners casino, to make fewer mistakes.
