Ashes to scrap the toss

[chunkyshanhawk53]

Toss could be axed for Ashes series to reduce home advantage

For fucks sake. Cricket isn’t broken. Stop pissing about with it.

Some coverage on free to air tv and the game will thrive without all of this shite

In fairness, the Indians would probably be the ones most likely to suffer if opposing teams could just bat first every time.

We won the toss 4 times and still lost 4 nowt. Losing 3 batting first.

They want to negate India struggling in seaming conditions.

Aye, cause we're shite

We were scoring 400 on a pitch where par was 600

India only play in seaming conditions here and NZ though really. SA and Australia would still beat them time and again IMO on their own grounds.

It's all becoming a little boring now.

So what will happen instead.

 

[Ageing trundler]

Maybe reduce home advantage by playing a few meaningful warm up games.

The away side choose to either bowl or bat first
