Twenty/20 cricket is great on a Friday evening during the summer at a local level, at £2 a throw. At county level, it is not value for money once the travelling time & fares, not forgetting ever increasing entry costs to Old Trafford, are taken into consideration.
I prefer 50 overs but it's not putting bums on seats and as our knowledgeable friend from Water Street () says , we need to attract people back, and we no longer have the draw of a Viv Richards/Roger Harper/Shane Warne , I would welcome any change that pulls the people in, the problem is the League don't do change!
