Cricket in Hakuba
The Hakuba World Series Cricket Competition is played out during the warmer months of the year bringing together many nationalities including English, Australians, New Zealanders, Canadians, Japanese, Scots, and Swiss to name a few. It is a hybrid game of test, limited overs, indoor and backyard cricket with the rules evolving throughout this inaugural season. Next year we are hoping to challenge some other teams from around the globe to compete for the Hakuba WSC Cup. Today was the final game of the year as we prepare for the snow which will come anytime now. The view from the pitch is a reminder that the snow is on its way. The Cricket is an ICBO sanctioned event. (Icy Cold Beer Only)
Hey Tony,
The ICBO event looks great, but I don’t see any beers on the field there? Hope one of the rules was knock over a bottle and your out, it’s tradition right?
I can assure you that there was a beer for every fielder out there and I know that batsman wouldn’t play if he couldn’t drink on field:)
