Are you watching the Hundred cricket?

Away from the Olympics, I'm getting far more obsessed with this sporting event this year.

It's just the right size of competition and length of game to make cricket fun and be something to get really into for a month or so!

Anyone else enjoying this year's Hundred?

I don’t watch cricket in general so nope

Screw that rubbish. Watch test cricket if you have a hella load of time and patience but it’ll pay off. This is just a monetised mess that’s skewed the rules and beauty of the game… 😭 International cricket is so much better. Not county, not hundred, not any American extravaganza, not IPL and equivalents, good ol test cricket! As one may be able to see, this is a sensitive topic for me.

And if I don't have very much time or patience and want something to watch in the rugby off-season that is similar length to a rugby match? :tongue:

The other issue with the Hundred is they players aren't a 'team' they come from dfferent counties. I support Essex and players from there are in Manchester Orig, Trent Rockets, London Spirit and Oval Invic - so no loyalty.
