The Twenty20 is worth watching now....

....just thought I'd better let you know in case you'd lost all interest in the domestic Twenty20. Hampshire look in a good position to beat Warwickshire and Sussex play at Trent Bridge later in the second quarter with the other two being played tomorrow.

It must be a tricky marketing assignment - create some hype over a tournament that even enthusiasts have been luke warm about to date....with none of the limitless games so far now mattering. Glad to have avoided that brief.

On another marketing note, Tourism Australia have launched an app for the iPad through which you can win tickets for the Brisbane Test. The chances of any Burble readers having an iPad and being able to afford plane tickets to Australia are slim I imagine!!

Hampshire made hard work of it but James Vince was quality (except when calling Carberry for an unecessary risky 2 which led to Carberry's run out). I'd not seen him bat before but he looked class...effortless batting.

Good news on the competition. Firstly it is an iPhone not iPad app and secondly it includes flights. The competition actually looks quite fun (for statos like me) as it involves answering 2 questions a day, scoring runs for each correct answer and aiming to get to 100 not out.

The app is called Go Ashes.
