New balls from both ends in ODIs

^That is the purist point of view. Thing is that more mature followers of the sport like me, you and most here on PC enjoy watching a real good battle between bat and ball. The onset of T20 unfortunately has greatly undermined the value of such battles.

Trying to eradicate boundaries from the game is a bit much.

So basically they've gone back to the rule they had in Australia back in the 1980s and into the mid 90s. When the White Ball was first introduced. Not sure how it was in any other part of the world that used White Balls back in that era. Only know that Coloured clothes and white balls were used in New Zealand back in the 1980s

2 new balls???? why not just take away the stumps so that batsmen no longer get bowled....wait, how about not allowing any fielders near the boundary and only 1 slip, heck, just take away the slips, and give batsmen three strikes, and lets just remove the run out rule and allow batsmen to go off the field when ever they want and to come back when ever they want....

Good one.
