Welsh Fire 94 off 40

Apparently Chris Hughes the presenter referred to one of the females as a “little Barbie girl”.

Was absolute cringe, interviewing her about the competition and the team and she said they’d all been out to watch the barbie movie, and he said “Youre a little Barbie yourself aren’t you, with your blue eyes” like a lad on stag do chatting to a lass in a nightclub

40 balls each and it didn't look a good crowd and 2 games called off.

Would you have hung around all day too if you’d turned up at 11am?

There aren’t 44 First Class counties, so what are you on about ?

No but there are 44 traditional counties in England and Wales. 18 have a first clsss and Blast gig. Eight get to host the you know what. Each number is an arbitrary minority of the total. No magic in the 18. It wasn’t “and the Lord said unto Moses, and another thing, eighteen first class counties shalt thou have”. You pick a number that works. And I’m not convinced that number is 18 any more.

By County Cricket i was referring to the 4 day game, its a feeder system to the test team and even now that starting to be less relevant, especially for batters.

County cricket has three formats, so perhaps you need to readjust your terminology.

Not watching. There is a thing called BBC sport website and sky sports news.

 

[brandon]

Welcome to ‘The Forty.

The Pro40 as it used to be called…

Some seats are lost for logistical purposes (putting in TV cameras etc)

What, 5,000 of them?

To watch the Ashes you either needed Now tv at £20 month or a Sky Sports subscription at £20 a month on top of a basic sky package, the majority of the Hundred is free

There are ‘other’ ways to watch it for considerably less than that .

Would you have hung around all day too if you’d turned up at 11am?

I would for Durham no problem. I sat around hours on Thursday and Friday and didn't see a ball bowled as well as travel about 170 miles for the pleasure
