I heard from a friend in NJ that there is
going to be an international cricket match
in Jersey City… can a Jersey City resident
verify it… and I also heard its in Lincoln
Park… sometime in July… India Pakistan
Sri Lanka Bangladesh and England players
are in it… so feel free to respond!
It is the double wicket competition, with two people per side for each team.
Teams in it will be Pak, Ind, RSA, NZ, Bang, SL, Kenya, WI. Though you won't get your allstar players.. for instance you could end up on the Pakistan squad anyone like Asif Mujtaba, or for Sri Lanka Arunja Ranatunga and PA De Silva. A lot of washup players, retired people, no names would be playing.
The games will be shown on ZTV 15th,16th and 17th.
I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure Wasim and Afridi will represent Pak for the Jersey one.
The double-wicket competitions back in Pakistan are a huge success and attract more attention than ODI's featuring new zealand etc. as the opposition. Very exciting stuff if you have the right players!
