    Seems to have been an annual thing since 2015, apart from a rained off game and covid:

    Thanks Elite. I assume there be will a few six-fingered members of the crowd at those games, which must making catching the ball a little easier.

    Not to mention getting a bit more spin on the ball!

    When Welbeck take a wicket a common response is "well bowled, gimme a high six".

    Will this be some of the same players that lost in the 100 last night? First time I've actually watched it and I can understand why it appeals to a younger audience. Still can't get my head around "Rockets"? Unless I've missed something obvious?

    No, the team that lost last night wasn't Notts, it was a franchise team. The 3 Notts players who did play for Trent Rockets will play no part in this game. Today's team is largely a mix of fringe players and youngsters.

    Ah, ok, thanks for that. Probably why I had only heard of Samit Patel!
