It's a golden age of domestic cricket viewing. Quality varies but it's better than the alternative - a blank screen.
The County Championship was awesome yesterday while now we have the #OneDayCup b/w the Vics and Tassie while working on a new Minden Cricket Card Set.

Yesterday was a bust for County Cricket. Most of the day You Tube streamed nought but covers on and rain falling. Not sure what to second screen today as it looks very grey outside...
This image is from Monday at Lord's -- a much nicer day.

This is a good decision and would make sense. The key was and remains the franchises. Would never have got the project off the ground trying to launch a franchise T20 comp. The hundred ball gimmick was always a prerequisite. #theHundred
The Hundred set for Twenty20 transformation as early as next year

Brilliant stuff. I already have my tickets for next year's Test against India at Lord's.
#OnThisDay in 1966, the 3rd women's Test between England and New Zealand began at The Oval.
The NZ Cricket Museum have uploaded 20 minutes of home movie coverage from the White Ferns' 1966 tour, which includes some footage from day two of the Oval Test. youtube.com/watch?v=t8Kh...

So nice.
As the Metro Bank One Day Cup starts - you wouldn't know from the lack of interest in the media and the ECB - outgrounds start to be used. This was an old one, the Courtaulds ground in Coventry, used by Warwickshire from 1946 to 1983, here against Surrey in 1966

How is this New Zealand's first Test this year (even Zim has had a handful - this is their 8th!)? And while I love that Kane Williamson is doing well in the Championship, he should be playing for NZ today.
