Cricket - The Hundred

[Stu999]

Do you guys watch The Hundred? What do you think of it?

Mentioned it in the cricket thread, I don't normally go in for the white ball games but The Hundred has really surprised me and I'm really enjoying it. Watched Trent Rockets beat Southern Brave live, last week and I've watched most of the subsequent games on sky. Just watched tonight's game at headingly which was very good, Oval Invincibles winning again and looking the complete package although Banton for
Superchargers was very good also and nearly won it for them.

So yeah, enjoying it.

Yep, close game tonight for the Superchargers vs Invincibles. I thought it was enjoyable.

Supporting the Superchargers but slightly annoyed they’ve got so many Durham players but not using them - although Pottsy is getting a game tonight.

 

[Stu999]

Don’t think the Superchargers are getting there.

Superchargers collapse here 50-6

 

[Stu999]

56-8 now

Harrison bowling figures 5-11

This is awesome from Buttler and Salt!

Edit: was

Great run chase from the Originals. Buttler in particular.

Oval Invincibles making a hash of this 34-5 off 36 balls.

Edit - they’ve pulled it back for 146-5 after 93 balls.

Edit 2 - Invincibles won anyway!

I started this thread and I'm thinking I might not watch it this year. Feels a bit of a pointless competition to me.

They're trying to sell off stakes in the teams to people around the world, including NFL owners:
