Question mark over venue for IPL final There’s a question mark against the venue of the final though; it could be Cricket Club of India (Mumbai), D.Y. Patil Ground (Nerul) or any other city in India. “From this year the IPL will run and operate the semi-finals and the final because of the obli- gations to franchises and Lalit Modi partners and the revenue would be shared by the IPL and the fran- chises. “Rajasthan Royals (last year’s win- ner) had the option to choose the venue of the final. It has applied to the Cricket Club of India. The IPL wants the bulk of the seats in the Club House in exchange for 5000 free tickets in the West Stand. “The CCI has convened an EGM on February 27 to amend its constitution and remove an impediment after which there will be clarity. If CCI does not hap- pen, then Royals can chose D.Y. Patil or any other city in India,” said Lalit Modi, Chairman and Commissioner, IPL. Modi said eleven cities have been identified so far for this year’s IPL matches, including Ahmedabad and Cuttack. Rajasthan Royals and Kolkata Knight Riders are likely to host two matches at Ahmedabad and Cuttack. “But a franchise has expressed a wish to host a match at another venue in India or abroad. We will come to know about this in a day or two.” With the situation in Rajasthan Cricket Association (RCA) inimical to host home matches at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Modi revealed that the IPL has the authority to shift match- es if there is any form of deterrent to stage matches in a city of the franchise owners..

Since 2007 DCCC has won the County Championship three times and been runners up once, won the Fifty Over Competition twice in Lord’s finals and appeared twice in T20 Finals Day. Since becoming a first-class county, DCCC has established English cricket’s most successful academy, producing international stars for England, including Steve Harmison, Paul Collingwood, Mark Wood and Ben Stokes Durham CCC created the first new English Test Match stadium in over 100 years securing a long- term stadium naming rights sponsorship with Emirates Airways. The venue has a 15,000 permanent seating capacity and the Club has staged international cricket every year since 1999, including the successful Ashes Test held in 2013 and three games in the ICC Cricket World Cup in 2019. The Club has been awarded a further package of international matches to 2024. A successful rebrand in 2018 created a new Durham Cricket identity. Durham Cricket is now the umbrella organisation encompassing all elements of cricket provision in the county covering the professional and recreational game and all activities impacting on the wider community of the county and beyond. Durham Cricket Foundation is the charitable arm of Durham Cricket.

  • 285 - November 2008
    THE HAMPSHIRE CRICKET SOCIETY Patrons: John Woodcock Frank Bailey Shaun Udal NEWSLETTER No. 285 - NOVEMBER 2008 Wednesday 12 November 2008 – Meeting This year’s beneficiary, JOHN CRAWLEY, makes a welcome return to the Society this evening. His first visit was in October 2005 when members enjoyed a most pleasant evening in his company. John Crawley has endeared himself to Hampshire supporters during his seven years with the County. He has reinforced his penchant for making high scores by being the only batsman in the County’s history to record two triple centuries, both at the expense of the Nottinghamshire bowlers. He made 301 not out at Trent Bridge in 2005 and then followed it up with an unbeaten 311 at The Rose Bowl a year later. Virtually all Hampshire supporters felt it was a great pity that Shane Warne declared when our speaker was tantalisingly close to Dick More’s record 316 for the County. When he last spoke to us he felt that the former innings was the best crafted and that, in respect of the latter, the emphasis had to be on winning the match, which Hampshire duly did. Moreover, he made 272 on his Hampshire debut at Canterbury in 2002; he has therefore recorded three of the six highest innings for the County. All three innings are the highest made for Hampshire in the last 70 years – a phenomenal achievement. He might even have made a triple century in the latter innings but was unluckily run out at the non-striker’s end when a Shaun Udal drive was deflected on to the stumps by Min Patel.

However, with Steyn set to return to the fold after his hamstring injury, the only other candidate to make way is the venerable Makhaya Ntini, and that – for innumerable different reasons – just isn’t going to happen.
