Don't reply to them, just post for the sake of it.

I only replied as was relevant to the point I made, if anyone wanted to see the teams and how Blast like they are.

I know, just find it funny how the first game there’s a low score when it’s advertised as this bang bang exciting format.

Bit rude. I’d much rather watch the blast. See my point above
Edit: I’d much rather they invested in the blast than create the hundred, I get the point it’s just the same

Aye im sure sky would have wanted 200 plays 210, the broadcasts were both off the air 30 mins before the scheduled time,

The scores might pick up once the better players come back from america and england duty

The bot doesn't even like cricket man.

What's rude about informing other posters there's not much point asking them for insight into what they post.
 
Christ what were those teams. The Oval team looked okay I guess, but that Birmingham team would finish about 6th in the north section of the blast.

Also Livingstone is shite and should be nowhere near England squads in the future.

As pointed out to you last match that is cricket in all formats.

In T20, 50 over cricket and test cricket you get some good matches and some not soo good.

This is no different, I am sure in this competition there will be some good and bad games just like ever other cricket competition

As pointed out by me also, that is my point. It’s no better than the blast which I would’ve preferred see the investment

But the organisers claim it is different - it's crammed with world class players. Teams of that pedigree shouldn't be skittles in white ball cricket.

Yeah that fair enough, but the bad game lady couple of nights is not down to the format.

Been some great games in the blast this season but poor ones like this as well, that’s just cricket

You know as well as do mate there would be angle to be found if big scores was been scored to be critical as well.

‘ it would not be a fair balance between bat and ball’ ‘ boundaries too short’ etc etc.


And it’s not crammed with world class players, that’s been probably been one the biggest failing of the organizers, there have not delivered on that promise not even close
