Probably had a meeting at the pub planned. Must have been amazing though with the difference in bats etc.

looked into it as well but for the week worked out more expensive than I'd hoped.

I even debated just doing the Sunday and flying out Friday night but a) needed to save money and b) couldn't get any of my mates on board

Slowly strangling cricket.
They say 20/20 is too long then put on 2 Hundred games as a double header!!!!
20/20 is suffering because they can't big name players due to the world cricket calender.
So they put up the Hundred which suffers the same fate. Hundred also basically killed the 50 over competition in England.
People at top of cricket too influenced by marketing & PR gurus who know nothing about the game

Just watch Bears make a 200 plus chase look easy 7 balls to spare.

As a casual cricket fan, I actually didn't know who would be out the original batter or the one whose bat it came off!!

Crazy!

On the replays you can see Leach doesn't know if it's out or not. Stokes is constantly telling him "it's out, it's out"

Broad throwing a tantrum for a good 10-15 minutes about the ball not being changed. Finally gets it changed, sarcastically claps the umpire then takes a wicket 2 balls later

Almost surprised it was held considering the chances we've put down so far
