What is a problem with the 100 is the awful screen overlays up the sides and across the bottom. I have noticed they are turning the graphics off at times now so maybe it will get better.
I have to admit I didn’t like those, I just figured it was how it is done these days, I’ve never seen Sky sports but imagined it to be similar to how they cover the twenty 20?
I believe the 100 was always about getting youngsters into the game both watching it & playing it, it’s alright folks being sniffy about it but without this sort of promotion of the game the other facets will suffer. Look at the West Indies, when I was a lad they were the team with tremendous players who’s names I still remember all that’s gone now as youngsters have opted for other more exciting sports with better financial gain, English cricket needs this if it’s not going to suffer a similar fate.
My only criticism is if they were serious about encouraging youngsters then all the matches should have been available free to view, we know exactly how well the up take of sport is after something like the Olympics is all over the television so I really think they’ve missed a trick there.
