20/20 Twenty Twenty

Being a sad old purist, it came as a shock to enjoy England’s victory over Australia in the 20/20 match a week ago.

“Dramatic announcement” about 20/20

UPDATE: not that dramatic. Adam Hollioake is coming out of retirement for the Asia v Rest Of World XI 20/20 on June 20 at The Oval
