[Cricket] The Hundred

[dazzer6666]

Think we look pretty strong, Jofra steaming in under the lights with our theme song 'Tonights going to be a good night' blasting will be a sight to behold.

Men's squad: Jofra Archer, Andre Russell, Marcus Stoinis, James Vince, Liam Dawson, Chris Jordan, Tymal Mills, Delray Rawlins, Alex Davies, George Garton, Ross Whiteley, Max Waller, Craig Overton, David Warner, Danny Briggs.

'We' There aren't even any games in Sussex.

This tournament is not for me. But the Southern Softie/Skips/Stickle bricks team looks strong.

 

[Pevenseagull]

Found them, I remember the jaw dropping awe I experienced due to how utterly shit it was

....oh my Christ.



Rise with Birmingham Phoenix, and thrive together as one. Bigger, brighter and better united, this team is a celebration of the strength in diversity. Because different is good.

London Spirit is an iconic team for an iconic city, rooted in tradition and lighting the way to the future, with a unique ability to conjure something special.

Manchester Originals. Pioneers. Revolutionaries. Celebrating a global city of firsts. Laughing in the face of limits. Raising the bar forever higher.

Step aside for Northern Superchargers, a team whose drive and determination is matched only by their desire to win. Powered by positivity and people who get stuff done when every ball counts.

Belong to something bigger, with Oval Invincibles. Vibrant, expressive, and free to play their own way, this team leaves a lasting impression long after the last ball.

Follow Southern Brave, and go boldly where others shy away. Endlessly curious, with an insatiable appetite for adventure, what’s over the horizon?

Join Trent Rockets for the biggest party in the country. Everyone’s invited - so long as you don’t mind having the most fun. Volume up, ready for launch.

Spark the Welsh Fire. Burning bright with intense passion and relentless energy, their hunger will prove the haters wrong. Get ready to feel the heat.

I won't be watching this. I think David Warner is a c***.

Bloody good actor though, the scenes with him and Patrick Stewart in Star Trek TNG are superb.

The best thing about Covid was stopping this in its tracks last summer. We just need something else, which isn’t a global pandemic to stop this disgrace of a tournament happening.

No interest at all Another nail in coffin for four day cricket. Our 20/20 competition was a success and pulled in crowds. Hundred just there for making money

 

[crodonilson]

More exciting details announced this morning, wickets will be termed as 'outs' not wickets and an exciting team of commentators and pundits have been lined up including Andrew Flintoff, Paddy McGuinness, Kevin Peterson, Alex Scott, Mel Jones, Darren Lewis and Michael Slater.

Some common sense from the ECB would do. Crazy talk, I know.

Cricket for people who don't like cricket. To quote [MENTION=616]Guinness Boy[/MENTION]

A quote I often use.

I must admit, I hope it fails abysmally.

 

[Pevenseagull]

Evidently they're rehearsing wickets as 'outs' for the tournament as in, 'the outs have been falling at the Oval where the Wotsits are playing the Skips'.


****ing hell

This is shaping up to be the biggest example of cricketing over-hype since someone labelled Derek Pringle as the new Botham.

That's a no from me....

Or Ronnie Irani.

Massive blow for our chances in the Hundred with Davy Warner and Marcus Stoinis withdrawing due to covid restrictions and covid secure bubbles.

With a bit of luck, a few more marquee players will drop out, it'll get scrapped for another year, and eventually the ECB will just give up on it.

The responses to their incessant online adverts about this farce of a competition are very funny. The EBC are so out of touch they make FIFA, UEFA and the 'ESL' look competent.

Not sure who you are referring to I wasn’t aware Sussex were in it

We’re probably supposed to support The Coastal Coconuts or something for all I know. Loads of bollocks.

This is new....this is the Hundred

Can't believe after all the hype and fanfare the Hundred is finally here tomorrow and looks like a cracking contest for the women to begin with as the Oval Invincibles play host to the Manchester Originals.

Seen a few ads on Sky Sports and looks like it's going to be an absolute hoot, everyone playing with a smile on their faces and great fun for all the family.

Our campaign getting under way on Saturday at Trent Bridge against the Rockets. Our batters might not be the strongest in the competition but our bowlers will be a match for anyone.

Come on the Brave!!!
