Time for Change?

Exceptional times bring radical changes.  What will follow this period of turmoil?  Fantasy Bob has been considering what big changes are needed.  Here are his top 3.

You chase the ball to the boundary, in one move you pick the ball up and throw as the batsman returns for another run.  It is close he just scrapes home as your throw crashes into the stumps.  The ball ricochets away evading the fielders backing up and makes its way to the boundary.  An awesome bit of fielding has given four additional runs TO THE BATSMAN.  How can that be justified?  Time for change.

You bowl the jaffa to end all jaffas.  The batsman is bamboozled, flummoxed, has no idea.  The ball cannons into his pad, but it is just outside the line. The ball deflects away and the batsmen trot through for a leg bye.  The batting side rewarded, the fielding side penalised.  How can that be justified?  Time for change.

Cash rich companies, tax avoiding corporations, all looking for Government bail-outs.  Vulture capitalists looking to pick the entrails clean.  62 billionaires worth more than the rest all put together. How can that be justified?  Time for change.
