  1. This year however players can be released from the Hundred to play in the One Day Cup if not required by their franchise team.

    1. Has that been sanctioned by the ECB? It was a suggestion, I agree but did it get the ok 👍

    2. Who is on track to be selected from the second team?

      Who will replace Sol Budinger at the top of the order?

      Delete
    3. wasn't Sol already at Leicester by this point last season?

    4. See https://www.thecricketer.com/Topics/the-hundred-premium/unused_hundred_players_allowed_play_one_day_cup.html - behind a pay wall but the headline confirms that unused Hundred players will be allowed to play in the One Day Cup. No idea how this will be managed, who makes the decisions as to who will be allowed to play and what the financial impact to counties and players is.

  2. Sol got 56 at Blackpool on the QF v Lancashire.

    I wonder who could play an aggressive role this season at the start of an innings with fielding restrictions in place, as Hales or Budinger could do??
