Sports questions

[edit]

1. Why was India-Pakistan today in the middle of the New York schedule instead of 7th or 8th of the 8 New York games? Wouldn't ICC want that as the Group A finale?

2. Has Bundesliga, EPL, La Liga, Ligue 1 or Serie A ever played a regular season game or playoff game outside Europe?

3. When did/will the Ireland and Afghanistan cricket schedule stop being affected by the planners not knowing they'd get Test status when they planned? I think I saw a rough tours schedule years in advance once, does that mean they sit down every 4 or so years and schedule where every Test nation will be years in advance? (at least rough outlines if not exactly) Sagittarian Milky Way (talk) 02:46, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

1 because that's how the draw went.
2 no, but la liga may next year
3 we don't know Nanonic (talk) 16:37, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
1 Even ICC has said it's not random. Also 4. why is there always a P1 or Pl or PI next to the name of the country batting and never next to the country bowling? What does that stand for? Sagittarian Milky Way (talk) 22:50, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Powerplay. {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 188.220.136.217 (talk) 00:17, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Dumb me I didn't even notice it's only part of each innings. Specifically the extra fielding restrictions part. Sagittarian Milky Way (talk) 23:40, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
2. La Liga currently has a team based in the Canary Islands, off the coast of Africa. Hack (talk) 10:54, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
