So GT won Close game after winning toss.

Gill Guide GT with 36 ball 63 well supported by Shankar/Saha/Sudarshan & Tevatia.

Debutant Hangarekar bowls at right area with 3 wkts & 9 sixes by Rutu G (92) in vain.

Over 4 hours for a game of T20 and not a penalty in sight for a slow over rate. I particularly liked the 5 minute delay whilst a ball was checked to see if it hit the spider cam after it had gone for 6 anyway. There also seemed to be a weird delay when an umpire prevented a new batsman from taking the field after a wicket, I suspect it was for a commercial break but that didn't happen in the UK. A number of recent ODI's have lasted significantly less than this drawn out nonsense.

I despise The Hundred for many reasons, but at least it does what it's supposed to.

Whatever it takes!!!
Yeah Indian TV basically demands these games last 4 hours really. We also have to understand Indian summers are HOT.

New Zealand's white-ball skipper Kane Williamson, who was signed for Rs 2 crore in the IPL 2023 mini auction last year by Gujarat Titans, has been ruled out of the entire season due to a knee injury that he suffered against Chennai Super Kings during the opening match, which took place in Ahmedabad on Friday (March 31) ...3 hours

That's how the 12th man/impact player is introduced into the game in place of an outgoing player. Similar to introducing substitutes in football.

Besides, your moaning in this thread seems to bring in some weird joy. Please keep it going.

This Punjab team looking really good despite Livingstone and rabada both sitting out is a huge positive for them IMO. Reckon they've slipped under the radar a bit, could be a solid chance at a playoffs spot.
