TLCB News: Cricket Fever Grips Liquica as RTCL Enters Decisive Phase
LIQUICA, TIMOR-LESTE – The Timor-Leste Cricket Board (TLCB) is proud to report that the “Raising Timor Cricket League (RTCL)” is currently electrifying fans at the Liquica Cricket Ground. As we move into February 2026, the competition among our five major men’s squads—Green, Blue, Teal, Yellow, and Red—has reached a fever pitch.
This tournament represents a cornerstone of our 2026 domestic strategy, aimed at identifying local talent to bolster our national team following Timor-Leste’s historic elevation to ICC Associate Member status. With matches scheduled in the fast-paced T20 format, the RTCL is proving to be a masterclass in skill and local passion.
“The energy in Liquica is a testament to how far cricket has come in our nation,” a TLCB representative stated. “Seeing the Green Mens and Yellow Mens battle it out under the morning sun shows that the future of Timor-Leste cricket is bright, professional, and here to stay.”
Fans are encouraged to arrive early for the 4:00 AM and 7:00 AM double-headers to support their colors!
