No disrespect to anyone that is well into iit this year but could anyone else really not give a shit.

Last one I enjoyed was 92 and to be honest its a format we're shit at.

Older I get, the less Im interested by it and only really watch tests and 20/20

Its just a bit drawn out, will be good when the deciders come.
 
I'd enjoy it more if we had a realistic chance but we've just gone backwards since 92 and don't seem to have any kind of gameplan other than just pick a team and hope they keep winning.

Ben Stokes isn't there. That alone shows the thinking of the current management set-up.
 
Don't know how anyone can say Ine Day cricket is dying when they see the crowds this is getting. Especially when hardly any fucker turned up for the 20/20 WC last year.

Average ticket price is low, massive incentives for kids/families (particularly in NZ). It's been done right, for the fans.

Not a fan of the format or the low number of teams, but enjoying the it. Can understand why people wouldn't though as bar one match they've all been one sided affairs.
 
Don't think the fixtures have helped this week, apart from Ireland v WI there haven't been any games that make you sit up and take note. I'm interested but not staying up to see how Afghanistan get on.
 
I've watched a bit of it, but the timings making it difficult with work commitments.

I agree it can be a bit boring, especially if low scoring, and you have no allegiance with either team.

I love Royal London days up at Durham though, with living 45 minutes drive away, the 20/20s seems a bit short, where as the one dayers are just about right.

We're probably going to get charged £70 to watch Zimbabwe V Namibia in 2019 knowing our luck.
 
It should be more condensed for me then it would be fine. No reason teams cant be playing every 3 days. May need to work the geography out a bit but cannot be that hard.
 
ive had a couple of games on in the background while ive been doing other stuff.

NZ look quality and i think they will hammer england.

I'm enjoying it like; always catch up with the highlights, and watch it live when I can.

Don't think there's any need to only have one match a day on though, should be two games on some days.
