When does “modern day cricket” start for you?

[shortpitched713]

That date means nothing to cricket tbh

I think he was going by average runs per wicket shifting on either side of that date. Roughly, of course. There was actually a Test match between Zimbabwe and South Africa that concluded on that day, and that series had a Test after that also, so not sure which side of the divide those matches would fall, lol.

On that tragic day in 1882, when a rag-tag group of convicts deigned to humiliate their betters and carried the remnants back to with them to Australia


But seriously I reckon modern cricket saw its first proper expression in the 1996 World Cup winning Sri Lanka team.
