But wasn't that offer negotiated by that irritating schoolboy off of The Apprentice?

You would need to be more accurate as regards the words irritating and The Apprentice.

Nope. Still nothing. Not even a little one. About as meaningful as the Hong Kong Sevens.

I’m starting to think that the real ‘why are we doing this?’ anomaly is the 50 over game. T20 and cricket are sufficiently different that I can grudgingly accept there is a place for both of them.

I liked the 50 over World Cup. Didn’t hurt England winning. There’s enough time for some change of pace and momentum.

Everything played in coloured clothing, with a white ball, is the cricket equivalent of rugby 7's.

Fast, exciting and requiring a different skill set from the players*, it obviously has it's place, but it is a different sport and will always be less important than the real game.

* backs (not line and length bowlers, side on, high elbow batsmen or pug ugly, cauliflower earred props, you know...., real players)
