Saipa, meanwhile, have only once qualified for the Continental competition back in 2008 when they reached the quarter-finals before los- ing to a Bunyodkor side that featured Brazilian FIFA World Cup winner Rivaldo. Speaking at the pre-match press conference on Monday, Bulent said, “We will present a football game worthy of the club as we are ready to con- front Iran’s Saipa and ad- vance to the group stage. “Al Rayyan is a big club and has experience in the Asian Champions League.

England have continued to make great progress in Test matches but their performances in One Day Internationals still leaves a lot to be desired. The difficult tour to South Africa this winter will be good preparation for next year’s Ashes series. Is the Aussie team growing old together or will they come up with some interesting replacements? Perhaps there are a few playing in the Championship this summer!! At the time of writing Worcester are struggling. After a reasonable start, relegation is on the cards in the Championship, whilst promotion in the Totesport League is in the balance.

We have been deprived of the cricket we would normally read about in the July edition. Two things came to the rescue. The first has nothing to do with ‘lockdown’. It lies in the fact that this year sees the fortieth anniversary of the founding of the Southern Group, so we have taken the chance to reflect on this. The second, and less expected factor influencing this issue, however, is probably directly related to lockdown.
