Time to get rid.

I 100% agree. The Hundred format was always a sidestep to allow the ECB to own its own Big Bash/IPL.

I was at T20 in July at Lord's and it was half full for Middlesex v Surrey (the derby apparently). Most spectators were talking + drinking as is often the case at Lord's. The cricket and the teams felt irrelevant. The Hundred was totally different. Buzzy, Engaged. Poor cricket, but still...

I really don't think you are alone! I love this comp and it is such bliss that it is on BBC + You Tube. Looking forward to Lord's on. Sunday.

Listening to @kevinhowells.bsky.social on the BEEB and watching Middlesex v Somerset on You Tube. Took a min or two of pause, play to get it all in sync, but now it perfect. Enjoying the music chat too.
