This is the Indonesian squad for the WC: 

 Ni Luh Ketut Wesika Ratna Dewi (c), Thersiana Feibrene Catrina Penu Weo (vc), Ni Kadek Ariani, Yessny Yolanda Djahilepang, Sang Ayu Ketut Puspita Dewi, Lie Qiao, I Gusti Sandya Febri Pratiwi, Ni Kadek Devi Murtiari, Ni Putu Cantika, Ni Kadek Dwi Indriyani, Desi Wulandari, Ni Made Suarniasih, Gusti Ayu Made Ratna Ulansari, Dewa Ayu Sasrikayoni, Kadek Ayu Kurniartini

Only 2 of them are not ethnic Balinese/Bali-born athlete according to reports. In preparation to the U19 World Cup they had a 2 week training camp in a sports school in Bangalore. I hope they continue to grow.

So :ENG :WIS :PAK :NZL won 2nd day.

 

The match of day was :RWA v :PAK

Pakistan survived the Rwandan Test . It was a pretty even game, Rwanda were pretty good in the middle overs just made few errors which meant they only managed 106 in their 20 overs, a comparatively good score for women's U19 level. Then had Pakistan in all sorts of trouble for 10 overs after which they played well. It did not look like a newcomer at all and it will give them a boost to reach the next stage, would be a fairy tale story as the sport is a new one and they grown it well in schools and colleges.

 

Zimbabwe meanwhile were bowled out for 25 runs against England.

 

Indonesia managed a hard earned 74 against New Zealand with Ayu Kurnia (13runs including 2 fours) and Gek Ulan(16 runs) showing some resistance.

If you consider that cricket didn't exist in Rwanda until the start of this century, this is is a remarkable achievement

:RWA beat :WIS by 4 wickets. The West Indies were bowled for 70 runs with all their 10 wickets taken by spinners aided by some brilliant fielding. Captain Gisele Ishimwe steadied the chase to cause one of the all time Cricket World Cup upset,at least on paper.

 

Interestingly Rwanda were almost out of the group stages of African Qualifier last year and somehow edged Nigeria , lost to Tanzania and reached semis where they won and then beat Tanzania in the finals in arguably the best  game of the tournament.

 

Here in this WC they beat 2 full members :ZIM and :WIS and almost beat New Zealand and Pakistan.

    • Probably 0% but in 1939 Germans reached the outskirts of Warsaw after only eight days (the border was more to the east than it is now i.e. they had less ground to cover). The ugly truth is NATO would most likely bide their time in response so the entire eastern Poland would be a battle field for a while.
    • What was the Italian conflict? I can't quite remember.
    • And is there any chance that the Polish president would have escape within the first 2-3 days of war? Probably 0%. In 1939, the authorities escaped, but after an attack from 2 sides, the first being the German attack.
    • Hmm, and were they wanted to capture Kyiv in three days? Since middle of 2022, their run has been slow, so I don't think they'll be using any rapid maneuvers on the future. They surprised Ukraine at the very beginning on the war and were close to success. Zelenskyy only needed to flee the country in the first 2 or 3 days of the war. And Russia could have counted on this happening, because Zelenskyy wasn't an experienced politician or soldier and could have do however they wanted. In my opinion, Zelensky's role in Putin's plan ruined everything for them- he, as a populist and inexperienced man, was to escape from Kiev in the first few days of the war. Then Russia would have put in one of its own- Yanukovych? and Europe and the USA would probably have approved that.
    • Fortifications could only work for illegal immigrants but not against drones. We're wasting missiles worth millions of euro to shoot down drones worth 10k. It's anyone's guess how quickly Russians would reach Vistula River if the invasion came from two sides (Kaliningrad & Belarus). It would be days and not weeks...
    • Shocking news 😔 We just saw him competing 2 days ago in Annecy. 
    • Yes, and Ukraine is very important to Putin- far more important than the Baltic states, Georgia or even Poland. Without Ukraine, the restoration of the former USSR will be impossible for Putin. Another thing is that with pro-Russian Ukraine, Poland will have its entire eastern and northern border (Kaliningrad) with unfriendly countries except Lithuania, so it will basically have to militaries the all entire eastern part of Poland and build various fortifications there.
    • After all, it's one thing to dislike someone, even to destroy something (if it remains a rumor, which it usually is), and quite another to steal money... In the Italian national team there was the Wierer vs. Vittozzi conflict, in the polish team in Sochi 2014 there were accusations of various strange things: destroying a skies, rifle, etc., but theft is a serious crime, not just some rumors.
    • Stalin got Karelian Peninsula and Viborg and that was enough. Land invasion from Finland made no sense 60 yrs ago and makes even less sense in 2020s.   Finland isn't that important strategically even when it comes to Baltic Sea. U need to control Danish straits to control the Baltic. Warsaw Pact had an invasion plan of Denmark for this one reason.    Likewise Mediterranean Sea was no priority for Stalin. SU wasn't a naval power back in the day.
