1) no Freddy they are Bought-in players bulked out with some local talent.
I deliberately said 'some' local talent 'cos I've only seen two games so far and will not be watching any more !!
2) saw the Opening 'mens' game tonight I think the sisterhood will deal gently with me now, 'cos the mens game was a darned sight worse than theirs
3) Cannot totally agree with you, Trellis Mate, limited over was the vast bulk of the games I took part in even tho' we only ever had red ball cricket { I Would be boasting to say I Played }
4) All things considered the T.V. coverage was pretty dire too

After trying my best to explain the merits of this new format to Mrs ExT, it's a begger when all she said on the matter was she preferred the 'Act' in the interval in the womans match. Just about sums it up. A new format it might be, aimed at attracting the young to the game. Those which were captured on screen and those who were interviewed, certainly seemed to be enjoying themselves. Or was it because school term has finished?
I'm concerned what Test cricket will look like in 10 years

What bugs me about this new competition is that it has taken the best county players away from their teams just as the 50 over competition is getting started so it’s now almost a second team event.
Also it’s not that different from the T20 blast apart from the increased razzmatazz and those bl**dy awful graphics and I can’t get my head round seeing some of Yorkshire’s finest playing for other city teams.🤬
