What is happening next season? It`s being turned into a `development` competition with the final at Trent Bridge. It`s basically a method the ECB are using to try and make us support their new franchised 100 ball hit and giggle fest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like the media coverage of football outside the Premier League, if it`s not one of their pet counties, they don`t give a shit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin phantom Posted May 26, 2019 Admin Report Share Posted May 26, 2019 What an amazing day out, spent a fortune but worth every penny. Was nice walking around being recognised by Guy Lavender at the ground had a good chat with him. So many stories from yesterday. Still no idea who the people singing "phantom give us a song" were lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not in my opinion, but good to get "game time" I guess. It didn't last too long either which is probably a bonus. I just hope that's how they perform on Saturday against Australia so that I can get out early and watch the Champions League Final. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PHILINFRANCE Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 A low scoring match between Yorks and Hants, although the latter have now got a batting point. They are currently off for rain - a rain-affected draw would be nice, especially if Warwickshire can hold Surrey to a draw or even produce a rare win.

Admin phantom Posted May 29, 2019 Admin Report Share Posted May 29, 2019 The ECB have applied for trademarks for the names of six of their teams for their new competition, The Hundred, which begins next summer. One of them is for London Spirit, which, as was exclusively revealed by Standard Sport yesterday, will be the team based at Lord’s. The others are Welsh Fire (Cardiff), Southern Brave (Southampton), Birmingham Phoenix, Leeds Superchargers and Trent Rockets (Nottingham). There will be two more teams in the competition, based at Old Trafford and the Kia Oval, although it is understood the names for those teams have not been decided. The teams, based at the eight Test grounds, will be managed by the host county, in partnership with neighbouring counties. For instance, London Spirit will be run by a combination of the MCC, the owners of Lord’s, Middlesex, Essex and Northamptonshire, while Trent Rockets will be looked after by Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire. Surrey and Kent are likely to be unhappy that the latter will have Trent in their name. It is understood that they wanted to have Oval in their name but, like crosstown rivals London Spirit, are set to have London as their locator.

Absolutely dreadful and insulting to the history of the game. I hope it falls flat on its ass and there's no chance I'll be going to any of the games.

Did they get this years contestants from The Apprentice to come up with these names, or something? Why on earth would Glos and Somerset agree to calling the team Welsh Fire??
