  • Summary

  • COMING SOON: Bonus episode! David will be answering YOUR questions about the life of a franchise cricketer. Get in touch via the methods below. It's September 2023, and David has recently returned from playing for Northern Superchargers in English cricket's other short-form competition. The Hundred has provoked plenty of debate since its inception in 2021, so it was perhaps appropriate that - as well as looking back at his experience in the tournament itself - David gave a player's view on some of the issues surrounding the wider franchise game. On the agenda: how quickly the wheels can come off a campaign, the blame game, how players respond to a new format, building a team brand from scratch, quick maths in run chases, lifestyle vs. cash, friendly rivalry with the women's team, the dangers of a bad attitude, Hamilton in the West End, team BBQs, Tik Tok and the franchise bubble reaching bursting point. David smashes 54 off 25 balls in a thrilling win against Trent Rockets: https://youtu.be/XMBjYNoXBQI?si=SJBvABOG9k3wjLAn&t=257 Handing out bucket hats to the kids of Leeds: https://youtube.com/shorts/tjWj9RHDsk4?si=IHpGKvNVG1YJ2EmS David's tournament stats: https://www.espncricinfo.com/records/tournament/averages-batting-bowling-by-team/the-hundred-men-s-competition-2023-15216?team=6676 Follow the show: Instagram: www.instagram.com/hitman_pod/ X: twitter.com/hitman_pod Get in touch: Email: hitmanforhirepod@gmail.com LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/sam-keir-aa043078/ Learn more about your ad choices.
