Re: The Hundred
Decent score in tonight's game between London Spirit and Oval Invincibles, should be a decent chase.

Re: The Hundred
Wow, what a game that was, hell of a chase by the Oval Invincibles, exactly what the hundred is all about, spectators on their feet at the end, excellent match.
Re: The Hundred
Good game to watch. I used to be a 4/5 day only type of fan, but I’m now enjoying most forms. As long as it popularises cricket that’s a good thing.Niigata Jack wrote: ↑04 Aug 2022 21:31Wow, what a game that was, hell of a chase by the Oval Invincibles, exactly what the hundred is all about, spectators on their feet at the end, excellent match.

Cricket for people who don’t like cricket.

Re: The Hundred
You're getting like Prosser mun, people like being entertained and this format of Cricket is producing entertainment, they may or may not have a clue about the game, but it doesn't matter mun.
What'll they be doing otherwise, sat in house watching Corrie? they're out with the kids enjoying some fun, I'm all for it.

Can’t knock the crowds.

Re: The Hundred
Got to be honest and say that I' can't remember the last time I was a spectator at a Cricket match, probably watching Neath, when my eldest was younger, he's 29 now so its probably 16 or more years ago.exiledclaseboy wrote: ↑05 Aug 2022 20:25Can’t knock the crowds.

A proper enthusiast Max, not in it for the "look at me" ego boost.
Has a lot of time for Wales as does Dominic Cork.
What a pair of competitors!

You might think I've forgotten, but one day, when you least expect it, my time will come.
