The stories of those growing the game across the world. Inspiring passion.

The trio also reflect on the ’week that was’ in the emerging cricket world, debating the issues affecting the game’s global growth. 

”Big Innings” is a new USA-focused regular show on the EC Channel led by Nate Hays and Amman Patel. 

Emerging Cricket is an independent collective of volunteers providing independent coverage of Associate cricket and beyond.
