Given my bio, here is the piece I wrote for Emerging Cricket last year on Indonesian women's cricket, and the infrastructure that launched the senior team to a T20I ranking of 21 and the U19s to Indonesia's first ever global ICC event.

Updated Test Rankings.
South Africa surging after the big wins in India.
Australia was expected to beat England by 132 runs and did slightly better. Noting injuries England are still closer than the ratings would indicate.

What a way to win the tournament.

Onnicha Kamchomphu hits her first ball for six, and hosts Thailand 65.7 (11,4) beat Scotland 63 (15.1) by 3 wickets to win the inaugural ICC Women's Emerging Nations Trophy on net run-rate.

Looks like a win of approximately 10 runs* will be enough for Thailand to win the Emerging Nations Trophy, this is a genuinely exciting final day!

*someone else can calculate the required winning margin if they chase

Netherlands beating Scotland means that 4 teams can win the tournament tomorrow!

Scotland wins the trophy with a win vs Thailand, while a Thailand win can open it up for them, UAE, or the Netherlands to take first place depending on NRR. It's like the final day of a football league!

(Thanks again Ajit for having me on, it was really fun ranting with you about all the cricket!)

On one hand, I would've liked to see the tournament go to the last day with Thailand and Scotland vying for the title. On the other, a Thailand team that's lost to UAE and PNG leaves some hope for me, an Indonesian supporter, that they'll be beatable in the Southeast Asian Games in December!

Thailand's batting, which has been fragile throughout, collapses again, as the fail to chase 80 against UAE. Scotland will win the trophy with a game to spare if they can beat the Dutch.

And they did it again! Absolutely walloped India in the second test to sweep the series! What an amazing performance from this South Africa team, and what fun it was to watch their offspinner in full flow. Test cricket remains glorious. #INDvSA 🏏

Congratulations, South Africa! What a fantastic performance by skipper Temba Bavuma and his spinners to beat India at home for the first time in 15y! Fantastic display of offspin bowling by Harmer. Lovely to see the world champions win this handily on a tricky pitch inside 3 days. #INDvSA 🏏

I haven't seen this comparison made since the Perth Test yet, but since it's not every day I can make a cricketing Kendrick Lamar reference, the match was pretty much Mitchell Starc going "fuck the big 3, it's just big me"

It's a shame this India vs SA series is only two Tests, SA's doing a real good job of grinding India down in the field. Great antidote to the Perth Test.

Check out this prediction for the 2013 #Ashes series from the 2005 book "Cricket: Celebrating the Modern Game Around the World" by Philip Brown and Lawrence Booth.

You have the series being played in Sharjah and Michael Clarke has to convince the TV audience thathe's made his ground!
Excerpt from "Cricket: Celebrating the Modern Game Around the World" by Philip Brown and Lawrence Booth, published 2005 It's March 2013, and tension is mounting during the third and deciding Ashes Test at Sharjah. Australia's middle-order rock Michael Clarke is speaking breath-lessly into the mic on his collar, trying to convince the vast TV audience in India that he just grounded his bat in time. But Ian Bell's argument - that his direct hit from cover point deserves recognition-is persua-sive, if not entirely based on logic. As the votes pour in, piling up in the top left corner of the TV screen, it is clear that Clarke is in trouble. In fact, he is out - by two whole percentage points! Bell's throw might not have beaten Clarke's lunge, but these days it's the fans who hold sway, not the humdrum reality of feet and inches. As Clarke shakes his head, Bell gives a smiling thumbs-up to the cameras, and has 30 seconds to thank the public while the next batsman is driven in a golf buggy to the crease by the MD of the series sponsors. England go on to win the game, thus claiming their first Ashes triumph for 27 years, and announce that they are looking forward to defending the urn in Singapore in three months' time. Complete science-fiction? Or a sneak preview of the game's future, a place where technology and the people rule, and cricket's power base has shifted to the subcontinent? Cricket has always been so full of surprises that nothing can be discounted, not even England winning the Ashes. Who, after all, would have predicted the epoch-making impact of World Series Cricket? Or the way Hawkeye has changed our perspec-tive of lbw decisions? Or that cricket would turn to baseball for advice on how to throw? Or that a 20-over slog would be hailed as the game's saviour?

My apologies to all Australian and English cricket folks, but this was the funniest possible scorecard to wake up to, given all the hype and the build up and dramatics around the Ashes.

The big #cricket news today is coming out of Bangkok, where in the ICC Women's Emerging Nations Trophy, there were two upsets where Thailand were knocked off by PNG, while UAE were comprehensively beaten by the Netherlands! This tournament is anyone's now.
