International T20 games the night before and afternoon after the Blast finals day.
I wonder if you'd ever see India playing a T20 match the day before the IPL final?

Surely it's in the ECB's best interests to have as many big names at finals day as possible, what an embarrassing way to undermine the whole competition!

The 16.4 is the IPL equivalent.

The Blast is treated like the Zenith Data Systems Cup these days!

Yeah I know, but a meaningless T20 against South Africa or a chance to win silverware with his club - there’s no way Livingstone should be missing the Vitality finals. In fact if England call him this week he should say, thanks but no thanks.

Not sure if he can. No idea who is centrally contracted anymore.
 
Well, a miracle as Lancs go through. Livingstone carted Parkinson and the rest all over the shop and scored more than half the runs including 7 sixes.
Not for the first time I am left wondering what Blatherwick is for. Although he got a wicket he was taken off after his one over cost 16runs. He scored 11 off13 balls.
It looked desperate at one time when Kent were scoring at 10 per over, but we pulled it back by taking wickets and we had a reasonable target in the end.
Well done boys.

They undermined all of cricket, producing the travesty that is the hundred, just for a bit of extra razmataz, so it's no great surprise they'd do that.
 
Bungles mess it up. Lanky could lose 3 more players for finals day, and Anderson needs to give up his franchise dream.

I think being dropped from the $20m game in the Stamford Super Series left him with something to prove.

The ECB are really killing this comp, it had grown in really well in the first 17 years, but English and Welsh Cricket has sold its soul to the Indian Franchises, and no wonder members are revolting.

Manchester Look Wow Soup Dragons, got a real ring to it.

Most members are revolting…..
 
The 11am slot isn't great for fans,get knocked out and there is zero interest for the £85.

Plus the fact it is forecast to rain all weekend, a depleted squad, may go to the reserve day. When it was less popular you could get tickets in other areas far cheaper than the members' block.

Tickets left for £110 in other areas now.

How much? Fucking hell, it makes match tickets at the Empti Etihad seem cheap in comparison!
