True enough about Rugby.
As for ODIs, we save ourselves for tournaments (4 World Cups & 2 Champion's trophys at last count). :))sigpic

Watching the match right now? :)
To be honest, I lost interest in 50 over a side ODIs almost 20 years ago. Apart from proper competitions I find them a bit tedious. Really a test cricket man myself. For 'hit & giggle' I prefer T20. More 'bang for your buck. If ODIs are on TV I'll jump in & out, but no more than that.
There are still too many meaningless cricket matches being played, and we all know where that has led ion the past. My bet is that ODIs will slowly give way to T20 except for the World Cup & Champions League. These sort of one off series unconnected to a test tour should go. Just wears down players & diminished the worth of matches IMHO.sigpic

Like I said Tankie, we like to throw you blokes a bone now & then. No sunshine; dodgy sporting teams; so close to the French - truth is we feel a bit sorry for you all. The least we can do is leave the little urn at Lords for you to stare at.:))sigpic

Personally I prefer ODI's to T20 really, same reason why tests are more fun tha ODI's, but I got to admit I rather like the IPL and CL20, gives you something or the other to watch the whole year with a domestic team in the tournament, an element which is missing for foreigners in county cricket.
No pay tv needed here btw :)) They telecast the matches on the national channel, and for real hit and giggle cricket, remember those six-a-side matchesWhen our perils are past, shall our gratitude sleep? - George Canning sigpic

I see this thread has shifted. :))
About to finish my first season playing rugby union. My team's put me on the wing position and I've managed to improve myself from clueless and struggling to keep up to a serviceable B-side player that can occasionally do something good. :))

BTW, if you or some of your team-mates are very serious about it, approach your sponsors about this.....
