In the absence of any Second XI cricket and the One Day Cup competition, the Bob Willis Trophy reports have been expanded to include a write up for each day’s play as well as the full scorecards. Sadly all fixtures were played behind closed doors so hopefully these extended reports will enable readers to get the feeling of actually being at the game! In addition, the Somerset Women’s team reports plus the Boys and Girls Pathway write ups are included in the first half of the book as they now come under the remit of Somerset CCC rather than the Somerset Cricket Board.

This unique series combines aspects of the expanding study of sport in the global society, providing comprehensiveness and comparison under one editorial umbrella. It is particularly timely, with studies in the political, cultural, anthropological, ethnographic, social, economic, geographical and aesthetic elements of sport proliferating in institutions of higher education. Eric Hobsbawm once called sport one of the most significant practices of the late nineteenth century. Its significance was even more marked in the late twentieth century and will continue to grow in importance into the new millennium as the world develops into a ‘global village’ sharing the English language, technology and sport.

  • Aug-Oct 2004
    New Page 1 Page 1 of 3 DEVELOPMENT REPORT AUGUST TO OCTOBER 2004 The Tanzania Cricket Association takes this opportunity to congratulate, Namibia, Uganda and Zambia for qualifying for the next round of the WCQS in Ireland and Malaysia respectively and wish them best of luck. Tanzania also takes this opportunity to thank the management of Zambia Cricket Union for the warm hospitality offered during the tournament. Tanzania national team fielded young side for the WCQS Africa region in Zambia from 1st to 8th August 2004. T.C.A. appreciates and commends K.C.A. for providing three build up games with their academy players in the course of the team’s preparations for the WCQS. Tanzania team performed excellently in a triangular series against Kenya academy team and Nigeria as the third and the final build up matches in Nairobi before departing for Zambia. It was very unfortunate that Tanzania could not qualify for any of the three positions for further qualifying tournaments due to some short falls from the organizers. This tournament was definitely not organized to the ICC standards, just to mention a few e.g the dubious umpiring, games played without official match referees, wickets were dead and not prepared to the standard etc were all night mares for the young Tanzanian team, but all this should not be considered as major issues for discussion as Cricket in Africa has to move forward and we all learn from our mistakes and the young boys have many more tournaments to play in course of their cricketing career.
