Its not as bad as club sides who decide to do this will utterly cringeworthy nicknames on the back with the inevitable number being 69

Names and numbers can help the scorers in local cricket as it can be difficult to know who is who especially the team you are not from

Does having

PEST
69

make it easier?

Don’t know ask you’re scorer

Don’t know ask you’re scorer

I dont play anymore but was this really a massive issue? Given almost all clubs had their own scorers

Didn’t say it was a massive issue but it helped me when I use to score in junior cricket when loads of them looked the same

Helmets have made scoring much more difficult as players can be hard to distinguish between. I don’t have name and number on my shirt (I don’t like it personally) but have no issues with others, as long as its not bantz nicknames and anyone walking out to bat with 69 in their shirt will deservedly be sledged to fuckery

Not keen on it myself, but I’m not getting hung up over it.

Wish our club did it, nothing worse than everyone kitted out in club gear, you can never easily tell what gear is yours

 

[TheRey]

No thanks

 

[The Rat]

Don't mind it me, might see folks walking around with Stokes 7 on their back

They've done it in the CC for a few years now which helps but most people can recognise players at test level.

Another tinkering with tradition that does not need to be done. Guess he next logical step after that is local clubs then, and the problems with thatbhad already been mentioned I think...

It's been happening in club cricket for years.

Don't agree ,think this could help, wouldn't it be great saying kids buying test tops with their favourite player on

 

[Eggman]

I’m not too bothered really, but I can’t see how you can read the name on the back of (say) long off at the far side of the ground.

An American gimmick and adds very little (not needed in football either imo)

This. Some players seem more concerned getting the right number than improving their play

How many kids do you see buying test tops in comparison to t20/ODI ones though?
If they want a name on, just get a shorter format one.

Don’t Like it personally, but nevermind.

The Root 66 “bantz” is terrible
