Just wondering, but where is Ten Doeschate? Surely he is the premier Dutchman?

Youth is the future! The great man is nearly 40. Let him have his rest!
Goodness, I thought he was in his late 20s! Loving how you are going for realism: giving youth a chance and giving a wonderfully immersive commentary thread. Good luck against the USA

So I might need to re-work this as I need to update a couple of teams that the great @wasteyouryouth has provided.
You need to incorporate this into the story.

***Wasteyouryouth appointed head of the ICC***

The dastardly adminstrator has decided to cancel this tournament after negotiating a new broadcast deal worth billions with an adult streaming service that is looking to expand it's broadcasting options.

Or something like that...

(if you give me the morning I can update all the skills for the League 1 so they are balanced)

"Pornhub proudly presents naked ODI......grab them stumps and balls boys, 'cos we are about to get absolutely soaking yorkered"

I am adding Namibia and Canada to the league as well as you have done those teams too......if you could look at them as well that would be fantastic. Any other teams you have on the sidelines that could take part perhaps? I will go through all the teams and have a look at any anomalies and check home grounds et cetera....thanks for all your help on this!

Completely up to you, but If I was gonna do it..

I'd use this as my guide https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Cricket_League#Associate_one-day_rankings

Top league - England, India, NZ, Australia, South Africa, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, West Indies, Afghanistan
League One - Scotland, UAE, Nepal, Netherlands, Namibia, Oman, PNG, USA (I'd throw in Ireland and Zimbabwe as the lowest rankings full members)
League Two - Canada, Hong Kong, Singapore, Kenya, Denmark, Uganda, Malaysia, Qatar, Italy and Germany

That's roughly based on the rankings for ODI teams and associates (it doesn't include Jersey, Vanuatu and Bermuda) and 10 teams in each league. I finally finished the Uganda kit so I'm down for adding more teams, but I need to fill those other custom sides with players, it just means it'll take a bit longer. Like I said, I want to steal your idea.

Let me know what you wanna do with the league you are playing in/first and I can update the skills (a lot of them are already done, so it won't be tough).

I like this......okay lets go with this as it was my first idea and I liked the idea of the league system. I'll play the League One as The Netherlands with Ireland and Zimbabwe in there, and sim the others.

One other option would be put Ireland or Zim in the top league, Canada and Hong Kong in league one and then I could make the other three teams I mentioned. 11 teams in each league then. I'll do Canada and Hong Kong skill wise too, so it's entirely up to you.

I shall keep you updated.

Does this mean that the Netherlands vs Oman match will be replayed or will it be continued on from?
