Lawrence doesn’t move his feet
The 100 has been good for women’s cricket but no use for men’s. It’s time to get rid of it and get behind the blast, they need blast games every night and even two games, play it over a shorter time period in the school holidays. It is far too spaced out to get the best players in it.
Sorry I meant that it’s four separate teams on the same day and probably play a few less games over the tournament, I would say they could play a t20 game every couple of days if you regionalise it to cut the stupid distances travelled.How much recovery time would a top level cricketer need between T20 matches?
Thing is with a Hundred match with both men and women that's a potential of 400 deliveries. A single T20 has a maximum total of 240.Problem for ECB is there's little chance women's Hundred cricket could stand on its own.
And packaging 2 games together defeats the ECB's original argument that T20 takes too long and younsters were unable to stay focussed that long. So they created 6 plus hour cricket as opposed to a 3/3.5 hour cricket.
Ditch the hundred. Refocus on the T20. Sky would get a lot more cricket for its investment.
Smith looks like the genuine 6/7 keeper/ batsman they've been looking for. Competent keeper who can bat particularly alongside the tail.Not beyond the realms of possibility that this is all over today. SL limping to 10-2 at lunch. Couple of quick wickets after lunch and England will fancy getting this over and done with.
He's been put out to grass(old saying).You'd know it.Stokes out, Wood out and now Woakes hobbling about with another test starting on Thursday
Sure there's people lined up but it could be a pretty inexperienced bowling attack. If only there was someone with hundreds of test wickets who could play
Sad to see a gripping Saturday of a test being played in front of pretty much empty stands
Great for the lads but terrible for the t20 tournament if we get to the final as many of the best players will be missing. Do the ecb schedule many internationals around the hundred and it’s finals day?Bethell in the T20 and ODI squads, Mousley joins him in the former. Means Bears would probably miss them for Finals day now?

Ollie Pope is not a test 3. One good knock aside, seemingly been made undroppable
You could say the same for our top 3.No doubt talented but has been very inconsistent and susceptible early doors
If you’re ref. Lawrence he’s not an opener. Just one of the “lads” who won’t kick up a fuss when Crawley’s back to take his spot.You could say the same for our top 3.
Yup, this is the middle block of the Lower Mound Stand, loads available. Same as the other blocks. At £115 for Day 4, I'm not surprised.Apparently ticket sales aren’t great for day 4. Combination of having matches so late in the summer, the ridiculous cost and the chance of little meaningful play past the 3rd day
That price is horribleYup, this is the middle block of the Lower Mound Stand, loads available. Same as the other blocks. At £115 for Day 4, I'm not surprised.

Poor decision, no evidence that the ball hit the bat and not the pad.Just now Lawrence given out on review i'm still not convinced that touched his bat even after the review.
My thoughts were about how cricket decisions have been so much better than VAR and then that decision.With you on that one "Any doubt not out".Poor decision, no evidence that the ball hit the bat and not the pad.
Any doubt and it's not out.
Was the third umpire doing the V.A.R at the F.A. cup semi final by any chance.
