"Oh and while I'm on... We have a healthy weight problem in this country right? Who better to sponsor the big cricket event but popchips, skips, kp, butterkist.. Those healthy diet foods. "
It's an often mentioned point, perhaps we should go back those healthier days of the sponsors of cricket being Tetleys Bitter and John Player Special.

Not for me. I tried watching it last year purely out of curiosity and I get they're trying to attract a new audience but it's like setting up pro 5 a side football to try and get people watching the Premier League |

Not watched any of it! It just seems like the ECB are hell bent on getting rid of the long format of the game, which will undoubtedly take test cricket down with it.
Think the ECB have a massive chip on their shoulder s they pretty much introduced T20 cricket but didn’t market it very well and subsequently every other cricketing nation has made a huge success of T20 |

Yep! Pretty much this, although I think test cricket will survive, the quality will be hampered in the long run. It's the 50 over game I worry about, especially when you have Ben Stokes, England Captain, World Cup final hero retiring from it due to scheduling issues. |

It's basically cricket fot people who don't like cricket but like noise and flashing lights and pretty colours and that the bars open. Having tried to watch another tonight followed by the women I just don't get it. At all. |

I get that it’s not good for the county game but as a format it’s not miles away from T20 and does seem to attract kids and get them into the sport so there are pros and cons.
It’s also putting woman’s cricket out there as well which can only be good! |
