From provinces to the World Cup: How women's cricket has brought Indonesia to the world stage - Emerging Cricket
Women's Cricket in Indonesia has rapidly outgrown its Men's counterpart, now the Persatuan Cricket Indonesia targets the Women's World Cup
emergingcricket.com
Given my bio, here is the piece I wrote for Emerging Cricket last year on Indonesian women's cricket, and the infrastructure that launched the senior team to a T20I ranking of 21 and the U19s to Indonesia's first ever global ICC event.

And they did it again! Absolutely walloped India in the second test to sweep the series! What an amazing performance from this South Africa team, and what fun it was to watch their offspinner in full flow. Test cricket remains glorious. #INDvSA 🏏
Congratulations, South Africa! What a fantastic performance by skipper Temba Bavuma and his spinners to beat India at home for the first time in 15y! Fantastic display of offspin bowling by Harmer. Lovely to see the world champions win this handily on a tricky pitch inside 3 days. #INDvSA 🏏

I haven't seen this comparison made since the Perth Test yet, but since it's not every day I can make a cricketing Kendrick Lamar reference, the match was pretty much Mitchell Starc going "fuck the big 3, it's just big me"

It's a shame this India vs SA series is only two Tests, SA's doing a real good job of grinding India down in the field. Great antidote to the Perth Test.

A Super League that ties into a World Cup, avoids thorny matchups, and tied to League 2 is an easy fix
14 teams incl 2 AMs into groups of 7, Ind and Aus in different groups to Pak and Afg. Top 4/5 in each group qualify for WC, bottom teams relegated. 6 x 3 match series in 4 years seems workable

ODI Super League being back is a positive step, but from the ICC's press release it sounds like it will be like the WTC - only for the full members.
Guaranteed series between the Big 3, series against smaller nations not guaranteed to be completed or funded and no promotion/relegation with the WCL.

Also great that the ICC recognises that women's cricket can be a growth engine for the game (now India has won the World Cup). Any chance of letting more than 16 teams have a chance of qualifying for it? How about some proper financial support for Thailand and the Afghan refugee teams? Anyone...?

Adit has slowly but surely built himself an excellent series of interviews. Check it out if you haven’t already (skip episode 11, though).
Today's episode is with Steven Stern, the man in charge of calculating DLS targets! Steven talks about learning the game after moving from the US, working with Duckworth and Lewis, what's next for DLS, and if Herschelle Gibbs really dropped the World Cup.

As one of my first political campaigns was against the sale of British military jets to Indonesia for use against he Timorese independence movement, it makes me a little emotional to see them play each other.
