What is the deal with the 33% who aren't happy with a 30 min journey? You're gonna play the same people a lot if you'll only play teams within a half hour drive of you.

You do this anyway.


I get butterz point but older people mainly have no interest in coaching or umpiring and so you'll lose loads of people (who are vital to keep clubs going ) if you lump all your eggs into the youth comes first basket. Youth and progression are important but so is that 40 yr old who still has 10-15 years 45 over cricket In them. Ok, some will be all 'I'm not playing lower level' but they will be the minority and probably leave the game anyway regardless

Is cricket dieing because it's full off negative Nigel's?


I won't play less cricket
I won't finish Late
I won't travel to away games
I won't play in first
I won't play win/lose cricket
I won't wear a helmet
I won't wear any gear that's not traditional
I won't wear anything that's lairy
I won't play with him
I won't play at that ground
I won't play without side screens
I won't play indoor
I won't play t20
I won't play with sloggers
I don't like change.



Cricket is the most traditional game ever, maybe this is the reason it's dieing out, not because people are trying to change it.
