By Daniel Clark

After six years of tertiary education and numerous part-time positions within sport and recreation, Daniel secured an ideal full time role within local government in November 2010.

Away from work, Daniel has 18 years of cricket experience under his belt and has coached and served on committees at numerous clubs. He also plays baseball in winter and is again a member of the club committee.

Sport and recreation is an obvious interest for Daniel and his articles reflect that, especially his knowledge of cricket and football.

The owner, manager and editor in chief of Pen & Paper Sports, Daniel hopes to see the site grow from strength to strength in the future.

On Monday, Pen & Paper Sports reported how poor the ICC's ranking system is for Twenty20 Internationals, highlighting amongst other things that Bangladesh were ranked 3rd in the world.

Just two days later and Bangladesh have suffered a humiliating loss to lowly Scotland, confirming that they should not be (and never should have been) as high as they were.

Batting first, Scotland made a solid total of 7/162 off 20 overs, largely thanks to little-known Richie Berrington who smashed 100 off just 58 balls. In reply, Bangladesh were rolled for just 128, proving that they're hardly better than an associate ICC member... If at all.
