  1. I am a student in Xian , a fast arm swing bowler and a middle order batsman , I have three months free in winter and 3 in summer , I want to join your club I want to know about the join procedure and the residence etc and expenses etc or did you pay some to players

    1. The Shanghai Cricket Club and all members clubs and associate teams are amateurs. We do not pay our players and there is a cost involved in playing matches in the league. You are more than welcome to join a team and play cricket in Shanghai, but you will need to provide you own housing, residence visa, and cover living expenses as well in Shanghai.
