  • Annual Report 2017
    Cricket Scotland Annual Report 2017 Chair’s Report Tony Brian Welcome to Cricket Scotland’s Annual Report for 2017 which I hope will give you a good flavour of all that has been happening in Cricket Scotland and the game in Scotland during what has been another year of good progress in delivery of our strategy. I will only mention the major issues as I see them; colleagues will give more detail in the following sections and I do not want to “steal their thunder”! On the High Performance side the men’s team had some excellent results in 2017 with the highlights being wins against Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe (the latter being the first victory by Scotland against a Full Member in an official ODI) and qualification for the World Cup Qualifier in Zimbabwe in March 2018. Disappointingly, we did not win the 50 over World Cricket League which would have meant Scotland would have entered the 13 Team ODI League from 2020-2022 with the 12 Full Member nations – something that would have given us 24 guaranteed ODIs against top quality opposition over that period with the ability to sell media and commercial rights. One of our focuses over the next round of the WCL will be to ensure we win that and thus get the right to challenge for entry into the next iteration of the 13 Team ODI league. Our women’s team has made good strides during the year, participating in the 50 over World Cup Qualifier in Sri Lanka in February where they performed well against teams which we all saw on our televisions screens during the very successful Women’s World Cup itself in England in the summer.
