Surely they can play games without fans because in cricket you can keep social distancing in football you can't, it would be great to have some sport to watch keeps people moral up as well

As long as people don't play with a dead bat.

The backstump could be a bit close to the hitter if the spinner is chucking it down

How are teams going to travel and where are they going to stay. We are supposed to be in lockdown with no people moving around.

Is the Cricketers still open?
A good pub years ago, usually with a young Arthur Emyr downing a gallon.

I'm not the only one

Cricket could go ahead you can keep social distancing

For example the out field players could wear gloves plus umpires the umpires keep one ball each end when there's a bowling change clean the ball with a wipe

Not a daft idea at all

How does the umpire stay 2 metres from the bowler whilst staying in line to adjudicate LBW?

Wicket keeper can’t stand up.

How big are the dressing rooms to enable social distancing?

How do the players get to the game?

Whose crazy idea was this?

Not to mention fist bumps and group hugs...
The ball would take ages to get back the bowler as every fielder would have to spray the ball with disinfectant before passing it on to the next fielder in the chain. Christ only knows what that would do to the ball and how it would affect reverse swing.
Drinks breaks would take forever.
Batsmen could play a dead bat and refuse to return the ball that’s dropped a yard in front of them or retreat from the crease, rendering a Mexican stand-off between him and the nearest fielder inevitable. A member of the ground staff in a Hazmat suit would be required to come on and return the ball to the bowler. The over rate would be shocking.

Cricket anarchy! Crikey!

Like Boris, Jim’s not big on detail. A Cabinet post beckons, Shirley?

There's ways around things the keeper if standing up would have to wear a mask 😷 as would the umpires

As for travelling well last i checked you can still use buses the ECB would have to lay 2 on per team so everyone can keep distancing
