Anon Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Just now, Grumpy Git said: Godleman 54 not out in an opening stand of 160/0 with Reece (90 no) chasing 311 v Northants. ? I'm going for a lie-down. I know it's only a start, but I'm really pleased for Godleman. It's galling to see a good player endure such a rotten run of form. Fingers crossed him and Reece are galvanised by Masood's announcement and stake a claim for the opening spots next season. jimbo jones, Grumpy Git and Hans Datdo-Dishes 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is very nasty, even to the point of ex-players squabbling and calling each other names. It's a very depressing sight which can't be good for anyone. Right now the legacy of the Hundred appears to me to be causing a massive division in the cricketing community. The answer for next season is rumoured to be having another tournament. A red ball one in August, regionalised into 3 team tournaments (Notts and Leicestershire for us) using all the counties. Or having regionalised teams with the “best players” AKA a red ball version of the hundred ?♂️ Have you come across the Lancashire Action group? They look like they are taking a stand. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2022/aug/24/lancashires-awkward-squad-ready-to-battle-for-county-crickets-future Reggie Greenwood and jimbo jones 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highlighting the mess cricket in this country has got itself into. We wait to see what the proposals are and where we go from there.

jimbo jones Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 (edited) I actually didn't think today's announcement was too bad, probably due to the backlash from fans and particularly members being strong. Looks like we will have 14 games again for next season at least. I don't mind the 50 over completion being early, it just leads to the question of what will be happening in August. Making the top division of the two smaller (like it used to be) also makes sense. I have no idea why they changed it - 2 equal divisions of 9 makes most sense, but lets not get our hopes up ? I think any major changes, other than division changes and strange games played in the UAE, which was always going to happen will be staved off for this year. They will try again though.

Comrade 86 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Just watched this and thought I'd share a link, though I'm guessing most of you lot will already have seen it. For those who haven't, it's a thoughtful and considered doco about Ben Stokes' trials and tribulations since that night in Bristol, with a few triumphs thrown in for good measure.
