Good...hope you enjoy.
Myself I cant see what advantage it has over T20 Bash.

Some fancy new graphics. Nothing else noteworthy as yet.

Cricket itself is ok, been a bit mixed but that happens, and still been doing a bit of work so not paid attention to the weird over lengths.

The colour scheme on the graphics is really jarring, like something a two year old on a sugar rush might reject as too bright:



Also the display of the actual scores is all over the place, not sure if t helps the uninitiated much but it's unnecessarily irritating too.

They already do that in some parts of the world where people have an attention span even worse than mine.

Initial thoughts, from bbc coverage:
-They’ve brought the boundaries in loads! Assume they’ll be brought back a lot for the men’s game or it’ll be torture for the bowlers
-I like helmet cam
-I like the uniforms
-I’m not sure about the tv graphics. My mother likes them though and she’s 80
-Carlos brathwaite is cool
-Tuffers and Vaughan aren’t
-not sure what else it offers that T20 doesn’t

As a cricket purist it’s not aimed at me but Im not sat here thinking I want to smash my tv in, so on balance it’s positive

No tension at all for the moment...probably increase with the run chase.

Carlos is ace, we did some work with him for National Cricket Week and he's a lovely fella.

At least on BBC you dont have to put up with blasted adverts every 5 minutes.

Sky very light on adverts during play, not sure I’ve seen one since I decided I had had enough of Vaughan and Tufnell on BBC.

Going to the last over at least, some of the fielding has been dreadful tonight but the batting of van Niekerk has been superb.

Agree thought that was really good entertainment in the end. Some slightly ropey fielding in the but great batying from Van Niekirk. Good to see loads of kids watching in the stands as well.

Well your last sentence is most likely the key to the whole thing. If it can get kids interested and more importantly keep them interested, it’s no bad thing.

Good turnout tonight, Interested to see what the crowd will be like at the men’s games.
