  1. Ian Chappell shares his views on The Hundred The England and Wales Cricket Board's (ECB) The Hundred tournament has been going on with much fanfare. The tournament sees both the team face 100 balls each with a lot of new rules for the players. International players like Joe Root, Ben Stokes, Rashid Khan, Quinton de Kock, Faf du Plessis, Sunil Narine, Eoin Morgan, Moeen Ali, and Jonny Bairstow are playing in the tournament.

  2. However, former Australia captain Ian Chappell says that the T20 format of the game is enough to take the sport into the Olympics and for that 'The Hundred' was not really needed too. The first match of The Hundred took place between the women's teams of Oval Invincibles and Manchester Originals on July 21 whereas the men’s tournament started on the next day. Image Source by Twitter "Apart from reducing the number of balls to obtain a terrestrial television deal, the reasoning behind the Hundred could well be that it improves the chances of cricket fulfilling the Olympic dream. This is often cited as a way to spread the game's popularity to a wider audience. Surely the T20 format could achieve that same outcome without yet another reduction," Chappell wrote in his column for ESPNcricinfo.

  3. "Cricket is a team game ideally played by 11 members a side. Performance satisfaction is a big reason why youngsters fall in love with the game. Administrators would do well to remember that before they rush into devising shorter forms of the game. The more the length of an innings is reduced, the greater chance that there will be players "just making up the numbers". Even those players crave occasional performance satisfaction," he further added.
