https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/52124981 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 | | | |

Cricket on 10:33 - Apr 2 with 979 views | Joe_bradshaw | 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? [Post edited 2 Apr 2020 10:54]
