Part 2:

When you think of cricket what do you think of? Walking through your local park in the summer and seeing a bunch of old men playing cricket in their white’s? That boring game that you HAD to play in school? Was it on the television ages ago and lasted for what seemed like weeks?

In 2003, Twenty20 cricket was introduced with the aim to attract a new audience. Twenty20 cricket lasts for about 2 and a half hours and it is designed to take place in the evenings to attract people to come after work or for parents to bring their children after school. The shorter form of the game made it livelier and more entertaining to spectators. The crowd are encouraged to cheer and sing along to songs being played on the big screen, two things that are not usually associated with cricket.

The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), To make the atmosphere even more unique compared to county championship games, each county when hosting a Twenty20 match was encouraged to stamp and develop their own personality on the home games; with the key ingredient to attract new target audiences that were not usually associated with cricket. Jacuzzis, bouncy castles, big screen televisions with action replays, BBQs and music when runs are scored or batsmen are out can be seen at grounds all over the country when Twenty20 games are taking place.

The Twenty20 Cup saw stadiums selling out more tickets than they did for all their county cup matches put together. More than 250,000 spectators witnessed the Twenty20 Cup, averaging at approximately 5,000.
