Think that's the point Al, they don't want us curmudgeons. They want a "whole new audience"I know this is the 2018 thread and 2020 is 2 years off, but what do posters think about the new city based franchise competition ? Clown outfits, custard pies to throw, 100 ball innings with a 10 ball final over.
As far as this particular curmudgeon is concerned they can stick it all where the sun don’t shine.
The 100 balls thing is just the start, there will be countless other gimmicks. Maybe bowlers don't field, 'rush' wicketkeepers, boundaries pulled in, no lbw...
