Only games it makes sense to stop are the stand alone one day/Twenty20 competitions where Net Run Rate is used as the separator.
Every few years the rules need a couple of astute cricket rules aficionados to go over them and rewrite. All the little changes, additions and errors over time means it ends up a bit messy. The poster above should be on the panel!
I believe it was "junior parents" that wanted it stopped.
Completely agree.
2nd innings lets lads who bowl and bat less to have a go.
it also means if country people travel down, their time isn't wasted if a game ends early.
