Next year we’ve got West Indies again , no idea why
Yeah, probably only three or four of those players deserve to come back next year. Braithwaite, Chanderpaul, Joseph and maybe Da Silva. All other spots should be up for grabs, including and especially the coaching staff.

Seriously, they should of just made the Saffas series a five test series instead, the Saffas are actually decent and the rivalry is big enough to build the summer around.

If that wasn’t possible then just bin the series and England ODI series and either give the guys a break or may even better, have them play a couple of state tests instead, giving that competition a boost.

Yep, 2 tests, 3 ODI’s and 3 20/20’s in January and February 2024. The Pakis are coming down for the main three test series over Christmas after the ODI World Cup in India.

That's odd scheduling to say the least.

Yeah only playing three Tests against the Saffas is crazy at face value. I know each country is obliged to play the other countries within a certain timeframe, maybe that has something to do with it?

Big Bash starting tomorrow.

I'm not feeling particularly interested this time around but I guess I'll end up watching a fair bit of it.

Yeah me either, very little interest.

I say it every year but the BBL season is too long.
I hear what you guys are saying but I'll be watching it. Anything to keep the Kardashians and other reality crap my wife watches off the main TV. Also, the boy loves it so I'll sit and watch it with him. We'll get out to a few games as well over the holidays.

Check the A-League out instead of any of that rubbish.

Yeah I'd watch it if my oldest was interested. He loves playing cricket but has no interest in watching it at this stage.

Even more meh than the BBL.

Yeah mate, that is another option for sure. But he likes cricket more than soccer so the BBL will probably win out.

Yes, my boy loves his cricket but up until now watching it was boring. But he's now taken to watching the test match on his phone with Kayo and he tells me he'll be watching more of the BBL now too.
