Agree completely. I think the issue of where this £1bn goes is under discussed. A lot will be used to pay off debt, build hotels, host concerts

This is incredible viewing if you can find the clip. To think he did it without a helmet.

I agree. I have been seeking clarity for months now as to exactly how this £ will be used and benefit grass roots cricket. The absence of any response suggests, as per the article, that it will be used to build/pay for hotels, conference facilities and pay down debt.

He's clearly not very bright

Agree 100%. Hussain is without equal in many ways but this may be the most valuable

Dawson maybe. I guess a deeper issue is why don't have more/better spin options.
February 25, 2025 at 12:09 PM
Agree. Perhaps spin wicket taking options specifically?

I wince reading this. He's clearly not the brightest

Played against him. Good player, top bloke. I remember his batting grip - he squeezed his bottom hand at the top of the blade.

Just hit 4s and 6s but don't get out

Is this where our king went? Hard to picture him out there, sledging, appealing too aggressively, coming down the pitch to the quicks etc

We're a bowler short

It's horrendous and replicated in the UK, albeit with lower numbers. But will it end at all? So much money equates to so much political influence.

Merseyside derby shows exactly why it's needed. Players don't understand their wider responsibilities.

The Real Science of Sport with Prof Ross Tucker is excellent. Great insight into real science vs myth behind sporting issues

Love this. Thank you. I'm still struggling to see if this new money helps the county and grass roots game. Or will it just pay off debt, help build hotels etc?

Good to see you're back! You've been through Chew Moor I see.

My worry is that the counties decide what to do with it. There is no guarantee that they will invest it in grassroots or even in county cricket
February 2, 2025 at 6:40 PM
Interesting that the £ exceeds all expectations. So, how does it end up in the county and grass roots game, as has been promised 🤔
February 1, 2025 at 2:30 PM
I was thinking that too 🤔
