FRANCE FINISH 5TH IN THE WORLD
EDF
With only 1000 licensed players, the Equipe de France de Cricket defeated Pakistan twice - a nation with millions of cricketers.
France then went on to play England for fourth place in the World Cup Plate final after defeating European rivals Guernsey.
This extreme and dynamic format of the world’s second largest participation sport was contested by seven nations with Australia retaining their world champion status for the 6th world cup in succession.
Next year France will compete in the International Cricket Council European Indoor Championship in Finland and the European Outdoor Championship in the United Kingdom.
