Tell you what they could have done with the Hundred to make it more accessible, not make it £45 for a kids team shirt.

They’re charging you extra because they’re supposed to be for kids you monster.

Yorkshire v Surrey, very peculiar looking teams. 8 players making their debut, Surrey have got Amla and Stoneman opening with a combined 325 list A games under their belt. Numbers 3-11 have a total of 20 between them.

The Dudley Timberwolves

last one sorry

And Durham creamed 405 off of Kent’s pretty experienced attack.

Zero interest in the Hundred here, good to see the 50-over stuff back.

Think it’s 8 in the Warwickshire v Glamorgan game as well. Good knock on debut from Benjamin, although he is off to the hundred now as a replacement for Hose. Quite the week for him as only made his T20 debut last week as well.

Just saw the Durham score, 405-4 after 50 overs…

the idea that they had to change the format to attract fans seems kind of like bollocks. there are a lot of complicated things about cricket, the fact there are six balls in an over isn’t really one of them.

pretty sure they had to change the format because the money men decided they were going to create a franchise/city team format and sky would have kicked off if they tried to do it as t20 after they already bought the blast rights. they just changed it enough to not get in any trouble.

also hameed scoring a century against the indians there :eyes:

Close game in the end, took it to the final over. Jacob Bethell got 4-36 with his left arm spin on debut at 17, his 2 wickets in 2 balls really gave Warwickshire a shot.

Hopefully the weather holds at the weekend for the games on Sunday. Warwick will have a few more options with players returning from County Select XI

Good first spell

The tv scorecard for a hundred is an absolute mess.

Not sure how this can be easier for a new fan, tbh

Wow! Not seen Steven Finn boel in years.

why are we (Manchester Originals fan, born and bred) playing 5 bowlers who can’t bat at all? that seems misguided

also they sent curran in as pinch hitter and he failed and then they sent narine in as another one and he failed!? :grinning: hope all hundred games feature this

Butlers knocking them off single handedly

Can dash through the balls without the other team noticing

Most interesting thing so far is that I’ve found out that I’ve been pronouncing Tymal Mills’s first name wrong

Dignified from Billings there

Steve Finn is an inspired signing for this.

Really don’t mind the garish graphics (oh yeah!)

The layout is a horror show though. Billings 16 and Parkinson 10 partnership and pink team (name not clear) 50-4 is my current reading of the score
