I tried watching The Hundred for the 1st time last night as they've been pushing it so hard on the BBC. What a load of s***e.

I'll watch it sporadically, beats eastenders
I'll watch it tonight just to see what the speed gun says when atkinson is bowling

It was the batting that I couldn't get my head around. I get they only have 100 balls to go at but some of the shots attempted 'just weren't cricket'

No different to t20 really.
A lot of the weird shots are just the result of a premeditated shot that isn't on once it's bowled.
I saw the last few wickets, not sure what the third umpire was watching when he gave one of em, the cynic in me thinks it was an attempt to get people talking about it

I can't get into T20 either TBH so no surprise an even more rushed version of the game wasn't for me! I gave it a try anyway..

I see Atkinson been called up probably to replace Archer. Stokes in for Brook for me is a big mistake they should concentrate on his knee IMO.
And I would probably have Duckett instead of Roy.

I think that was inevitable once he started clocking mid 90s on the speed gun. Bit of a worry really as he's had lots of stress fracture problems so surrey limit his workload, I hope he doesn't end up another archer.
Stokes must have been told either they can't fix him, or they can but he's out for 18 months. Bad luck for Brook but even as a batsman stokes would walk into any team in the world.
On current form I'd take Rossington over either openers

And they just been given new contracts surely contracts should've been sorted after the world cup.

Aside from the Willey situation I hadn't looked at the contract list, quite amazing that salt and Jacks didn't get contracts.

On this showing Willey is the only one that deserves one why they have done this halfway through a tournament is gross mismanagement and they are not looking to the future.

Yeh, topley did OK till the injury and I have a lot of sympathy for malan as he's the only batsman who's offered anything yet will likely be the first head on the chopping block
Now they just have to lose to Netherlands to put the icing on the cake
