[QUOTE="Vieux Talonneur, post: 916462, member: 73144"] Agreed. Bairstow was once quoted as saying he’d spent more than 300 nights away from home in a year. Mental. The cricketing authorities used to agonise - well that’s what they said publicly - about player workload. They’ve given up all pretence of that now. Should a player burn out / get injured there’ll be another along in a minute. Just - highly paid - commodities. I love test match - proper - cricket. T20 can play on the motorway as far as I’m concerned, but it’s where the money is. Top players in all sports get flogged by those that write the cheques. Bit depressing really. [/QUOTE]
