could have been worse for Roy, he gained 26 points with the previous run anyway
Does anybody else really miss the old scoring system? It just seems strange to have an arbitrary invisible line where scoring a run nets you 26 points. I think the old [runs + (runs - balls faced)] used to more accurately reflex the actual batting performance

wow, what 5 minutes makes - that's how much I missed lock out.

Should've have been

Inglis on instead of Behrendorff
Wade on instead of Tye (was meant to be traded out)

Hopefully 5mins doesn't cost too much..... only time will tell

Definitely a bigger fan of the old system. You are right, the difference between 19 and 20 is kind of arbitrary. To me you should get the gap of runs scored to balls faced until a max of 25, and I think a one point bonus for a six or a four is fair enough given you get them for dot balls.

I think the question is does anybody not miss it; 25 points is way too much for somebody who scores 20 (like Roy has here), and 0 is not enough for somehow who gets a quickfire 19.
