100-ball cricket done to fit TV schedules: Graeme Swann

By Jasvinder Singh November 30, -0001 • 00:00 AM View: 3408

London, May 21 (CRICKETNMORE) - Not agreeing with England Cricket Board (ECB) chairman Colin Graves that the proposed 100-ball format is being mulled as cricket doesn't appeal to a younger audience, former England spinner Graeme Swann said on Monday that it is just a way to fit the TV schedules.

"It will be exactly the same as T20 cricket if they get the world's best players in it," Swann said on espncricinfo's Talking T20 podcast.
