Div 1 - Leinster League

There is already a gulf between teams who will fight for the title and relegation dog fight in Div 1. Hard to see Leinster CC after being such a comprehensive winners last year to mere struglers this season. Phoenix have a weak squad, as theie results are showing.

Hills CC have been racking up results. 3 wins in 3 matches.

I think come the end of June, my point above will be backed heavily by stats

Dotski - I just wish I was as educated as yourself, I really do. I would also like to be as narrow minded as yourself and feel no1 elses opinions matter.

Not once did I ever slag the talents of S.Thompson. Talk about 'putting words into others mouths' along with the statement of Sajid figures in the previous post. IMO you come on here and cause a stir but just to enlighten you there is more posts disagreeing with pros playing than there is backing the idea.

Neither pro who took part for the NW will or can play for Ireland either, it was sarcasm to include Ponting and Cayle. Not that you would notice..

Interest point of view from Scotland's record wicket taker Majid Haq regarding his teams defeat to Pakistan the other day...

He said: “If Ireland had restricted Pakistan to 231 they would have gone out there expecting to win".

I tend to slightly disagree with him though...."Ireland would have won"!

I have sat back and watched all the posts about the NW Warriors batting on day one.
Do you ever think that if Ifti had have won the toss he would have invited The Lightnings to bat first. As a bowler when you hear the that The wicket was greenish you know that you have help. Congrats to the Leinster attack and credit to JT and Aggie for their doggedness.
If Kammy, and Romano found it tough going im sure all the arm chair critics have little to whine about.
Great to hear that the Warriors spirit & team spirit is so good so get behind them and not on their backs after one game.

@P McDermott

Fair enough if your post was edited - can impact on sarcasm being detected!

I would say though that if it's supposed to be "NW cricketers" selected, that sits uneasily with their policy of excluding NW developed players plying their trade in NCU. Either it's NW *developed* players (in which case C Dougherty should be available) or it is NW *based* players (in which case Rammoo is) - excluding both doesn't make much sense. In fact, your argument could be used for exclusion of both Connell and Hussain as neither were developed in NW, and Connell has just moved there.
