My Pro20 Round-up

There's just no arguing it - Pro20 has revolutionised cricket forever. Even if you're not in love with the game of cricket (and seriously now, how can you not be?) you'll go a long way to find better value for money in family entertainment anywhere else. Standard Bank and the South African Pro20 franchises have come together brilliantly, using new technologies and stretching the 'boundaries' of the game to exceed my expectations time and time again.

Let the games begin!

I used to be one of those strange, ever-increasingly rare human beings who can sit and watch an entire five-day cricket test match, start to finish. I love cricket. Cosy on the couch at home, drink in one hand and popcorn in the other, it makes for great late evening viewing.

And then came Pro 20 cricket. My days of resting in front of the telly absorbing the intricacies and subtle nuances of the game were over. Now every time the captains toss a coin into the air before a 20 over match it signals an impending assault on my senses.
