Ryan Harris has taken an unexpected early step into coaching, having been named assistant coach of Australia A for a home series in July and August.

Worcestershire have managed to secure the services of two New Zealand internationals (Colin Munro & Mitchell McCleneghan) to add some quality to their squad in a season where they are largely tipped to struggle.

I had high hopes from Rashid Latif. He is a straight forward and sensible person and quite a few upcoming players have come through his academy. But all our former players including him have such bloated egos that they want to act as dictators. He could have accepted the job in the greater interest of the team but no he wanted 'complete authority' as a selector.

i think to do justice to his job he needed complete authority or staff/team whatever. Abdul Qadir also did not get what he wanted so he resigned. its better if latif joins only when he gets what he require. after all he has a big maybe huge job to do. every now and then we hear that some players are given unnecessorily more chances and that some deserving players are not given any chances.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
