Dhoni is an absolutely shambles these days. Slows the game down so he can try to hit a six off the last ball and be the hero

I don't think that's why he bats slowly. He's 39 going on 45.
Tom Banton and Eoin Morgan in action today.

I caught a bit of kohli‘s performance today. Sadly he couldn’t then the less said about his batting.

I like steyn modelling the bjorn borg hair look. Better than his hitler/Diego Simeone look from last season

I’ve watched some of this. And have decided one truth

I simply don’t care about franchise cricket. I accept there are some great players, but I don’t know who plays for who. And I realise that team mates today will be playing against each other in a matter of weeks in another franchise. Great talent doesn’t make a great competition.

I do think that they are starting to get credibility and identity now though - there are 13 years of head to head stats, there are stalwart players, there are loyal fanbases etc.

And I know I’ll be a lone voice on this but I think our franchise comp will be the same 10-15 years in, to the kids growing up in that era.
