Yes,a simple compromise would be to limit each counties losses to 4 players. There are 72 county players drafted into the Hundred 18x4=72.Yes.
I’d disagree considerably with this. We’ve still been largely competitive in this competition despite the fact we’re missing several players.
Show me a team in world sport who doesn’t see a drop off beyond their starting XI (or 6, or 13, or 15 etc, sport depending). This competition was always going to be about who felt the effects of the 16.4 robbing their players less.
Win on Thursday against a very inexperienced Somerset and we’re at the very least in the mix for the latter stages with two away games left to go.
That would make losses equable; surprised the counties haven't fought for that.
