There's Boyd Rankin, who's signed for ?Derbyshire (not sure) as a full-time pro for 2007. I'm sure there are others, but it'd take some researching.

Ireland Tied with Zimbabwe, Zimbabwe are a full member so that is an upset, but I would have to admit Zimbabwe are a poor side.

Now Ireland need to kick on from this and sharpen up their fielding.

Mystic Cantplay will now proceed to predict the winning lottery numbers for the next Euromillions tripple rollover.

And they will be ... on my ticket

I do predict a win for the West Indies over Ireland and Pakistan over Zimbabwe, so Ireland into the last 8

South Africa, Australia, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, West Indies, Ireland, New Zealand and England

Don't expect Ireland to win another game in the tournament but Bangladesh could pull off a shock or two.

Just saw the Canadian team playing Kenya in the 2007 Intercontinental Cup- 4 Pakistanis, 3 Indians, 2 Sri Lankans, 1 Ugandan and 1 Guyanese. Canada are not the team to approach for Test cricket.

IMO for Canada to succeed, they'll need to upset a bigger side. To raise profile and all that. And Davison's getting on a little so when he goes, they'll be a huge void in the Canadian side.

Can't say that , i think if the interest for cricket grows in the us, they can make it big inside 6-7 years. Nepal are also a very good side, the played well in the last under 19 world cup and are playing very good even in this one. Ireland is another team i think who have a good future.
