Other counties have more respect for their fanbase. Don't see Leeds Vikings going down well at all up there.

Bet it's made no difference. Either you want to watch T20 or you don't. For as many new people as they may have brought in they alienated similar numbers of Warwickshire supporters who don't live in Birmingham.Supposedly some market research said they'd get more fans in if they just went with Birmingham because they're an untapped market and the demographic make-up is now much more multi-cultural. With it not being in Warwickshire any more the youngsters don't feel any affinity to it but they do to Birmingham. Just makes them feel it's for old fuddy-duddys and posh/snobby people.
Strange one for me in that Burgess has looked decent and Benjamin can play white ball. Davies a good player but specialist batsmen would still remain the priority for me.Interesting signing by the Bears another keeper batsman (they are not batters)

Still hard to see how splitting a brand helps the overall company.
Similar with these Hundred names - will London Spirit be that much more appealing than the Oval Invincibles based on a name? Yorkshire played it safe with Northern whereas Lancashire nailed their colours firmly to Manchester.

Really hoping Yates gets a start against India today and we can see how he gets on against a better attack

bit of a shame they've put a couple of Indian players in the Counties team rather than a couple of youngsters getting a chanceJust had a quick look at the stream on YouTube and will have a little sleep and then watch a couple of hours later on, India are batting and it’s a lovely day.
Anyone watching The Hundred?
Was busy last night but hoping to catch the men's game tonight. Tempted to go and watch the Manchester v Birmingham double header at Old Trafford on Sunday too, some really good players in that game and only £16 for the whole dayAnyone watching The Hundred?
I watched it last night and I thought this could do with some more balls (no pun intended) maybe another 20 might work.
All they needed to do was quicken up the teams in in t20.
I am not sure it was wise to start with a women’s match as the quality is pretty low catches we’re going down that my kids would have caught.
I will watch the odd game but won’t be hunting down the games to watch if they are on when I switch the tv on I will watch.
strange looking side Bears have out for Royal London game today
Should be renamed the Teddy Bears.It’s certainly a young looking side
Think Benjamin & Burgess slightly motivated todayIt’s certainly a young looking side
The graphics do seem to be the only difference with T20. Cricket not different so far. Commentators doing their best to pump it up on BBC.Silly names, garish graphics and constant chatter. Just a complete slog. Not for the purist!
The Gummy bears?Should be renamed the Teddy Bears.
When's the rain coming?I’m going Friday to Edgbaston.
Will be my first ever cricket match in the UK and only the second one in my life.
And yes I got free tickets.
Hampshire I think. The BBC are over hyping this so much it puts you off watchingAlright then, who the hell are Southern Brave? Sussex?
The names are enough to put me off, along with the ZX Spectrum graphics!
