The Jellys better sign Pollard & Tait now that it's on Ch 10, I need some reason to care about the Strikers.

Everyone watches the ashes and gets enthused about the ashes. The kids that are cricket fanatics (like Jims) will love cricket in its pure format, but for many 20/20 has increased awareness in the game of cricket.

very well said!
99.9% of kids do not have the attention span for test/shield cricket - 20/20 is the extreme most important format in the sport for enagaging base level grassroots cricketers (i.e. kids from non cricketing famalies)
Ignore 20/20 at your peril, it's actually entertaining if you don't let your 1960s attitude get in the way

IN a coup for the Ten Network, cricketing great Sir Viv Richards is joining the its burgeoning Big Bash Twenty20 cricket commentary team for the coming season.
News of Sir Viv's signing comes amid news Ten is chasing former England captain and Australian cricket nemesis Andrew "Freddie" Flintoff for the commentary team, with Flintoff confirming in reports today he was "thinking about it" .
Ten is throwing big dollars at the Big Bash at the start of the calendar year, with much riding on it becoming a platform for the rest of the year's programming schedule.
The network has already signed big dollar contracts with Ricky Ponting, Adam Gilchrist, Mark Waugh and Damien Fleming.
