Your maths are impeccable (at least compared to mine), and it's hard to argue against the logic. But..... that just seems on the high side to me.

Looks a cracking venue, one of my son's mates who he's grown up with made his debut for Lancs in the game so I took a keen interest.Took the day off for a marvellous day out at Sedbergh yesterday (though Lancs performance was underwhelming).

Yeah looking at the scores in previous Hundred tournaments it is...
But then it's hard to compare pitches from year to year.
You'd think 140 would be absolute minimum as that's only 8.5 runs an over.

I don't suppose anyone knows what sort of viewing figures the hundred gets compared to the blast?

Whatever is reported it’ll be inflated….plenty of empty seats and I bet there were plenty of freebies aboutI don't suppose anyone knows what sort of viewing figures the hundred gets compared to the blast?

150 I think, but the first three matches have been utter shite with crap first innings scores. Hope this tournament dies this yearJust seen their score (I don't watch that shitshow of a competition). 86? Off 100 balls? That must be one of the lowest totals in the history of the Hundred. I know pitches vary, bowlers can have good days and bad days, ditto batsmen but what would be classed as an okay score off 100 balls; 120 - 140?

I'm thinking more TV viewing figures mate, they are throwing quite a bit of money at a 2nd rate competition. It wouldn't surprise me if the viewing figures for the blast were comparable as well. We don't have a long enough Summer in England to waste a month of it with this trash.Whatever is reported it’ll be inflated….plenty of empty seats and I bet there were plenty of freebies about

Also meant tv viewing figures, it’s in their interest to report high viewing figures to justify the vast amount of money investedI'm thinking more TV viewing figures mate, they are throwing quite a bit of money at a 2nd rate competition.
