totaly agree fosdyke99,a draw is a draw,lets leave it that way.a 1point for a draw could prove to be a benifit come the end of the season or in the CC or grand final.

| I also don't mind draws and would happily ditch GP for league games but if they do insist on having it then I do think the extra point system would improve matters.
I honestly don't see how it's more prone to manipulation than the current scoring system or the more comple one you suggest. Or perhaps I'm just missing your point.
It's all academic anyway as the current GP system appears here to stay soI'll just have to lump it.
At the risk of thread drift.....the CC cricket system is as follows:
There are 5 first innings batting pts available, scored at 250+,300+,350+,400+ and 450+ runs.
There also 3 first innings bowling points on offer, scored at 3+,6+ and 9+ wickets taken.
The rest of the scoring is actually more confusing than the bonus points. It's exceedingly cricket.

I’d just be rehashing what I’ve already said, if I carried on. I probably get more upset about inconsistencies and imprecision than most people. I was more offended about the technicality that allowed Morgan Knowles to play in the GF last year being technically incorrect than by him being allowed to play.
Given that nobody has ever really cared about the LLS and relegation is about to disappear it is all pretty low stakes, in fairness. I just remember the agonies of trying to find out what the second tiebreak was after points difference in the 2018 middle 8s. When something important is on the line, little potential exploits become a big deal and respecting the integrity of the game seems naive.
They (to my relief) sacked off 2+1 GP after it briefly being a thing in the Championship before COVID ended their 2020 season. I can’t see them bringing it back - but you never, so I intend to be vigilant!

I saw a lot of incorrect decisions for both teams.

It was on a street - think it was called Scott Lane , I even asked if it was okay and a friendly Wigan fan said it should be fine . Despite my reservations as it had restrictions in place , teaches me ! I’ll park in the official car park next time and to be fair , you do take a bit of a gamble trying to save a tenner or whatever when you do that , work of kids no doubt but it’s left a bad taste , won’t even t cut out its very deeply gouged , looks like a screwdriver has done it but that’s life. The blow out was the Cherry on the cake and took me ages to find the locking wheel nut ! Not a happy chap when I finally got home .
