Just watching it and seem to think purists never believed it to be well, cricket.

Cricket has been the success story of 2020. Highly entertaining, hugely successful for England, complete confidence in the DRS system. What is there not to like. A series win here against South Africa, you don't discount England even though they have to score 10 an over to get home. 20/20 tough on bowlers it's true.

I prefer a full five day test. Preferably the Ashes, in the sun, five full days of drinking. What could possibly go wrong?

That doesn't mean that it isn't good fun to watch but it's not really cricket as there are so many restrictions on the bowlers and fielders that it's just a slugfest for the batsmen and you only have to see which of the top 20/20 batsmen failed abysmally in the proper game including our very own Jason Roy and Eoin Morgan. Incidentally the England 20/20 side features three South Africans, two Barbadians, a Kiwi and an Irishman

Awesome England batting. What gets me, they don't even seem to get out of gear. I can remember Boycott taking a day to score 36 against Australia - and we thought it was good !! A breathe of fresh air in such a bad year.

I was in Durban in February on a golf trip. Managed to get tickets for the final T20 and so glad I did.
