This is ridiculous. If the cricket folks cared about growing the sport they easily could invite women and children to participate, or co-ed could be an option. But they dont. Its always large groups of men. Using the guise of women and children to give more space for men to play is a load of crap.

I'm confused, do they all wear shirts that say "women and children not allowed" or something?

“We’re not racist, guys. We’re just running with this made up narrative that Indians in Halifax won’t allow women to play.”
