102 chased in 4.2 overs: The Canada Super60 isn't cricket, and it isn't good

During the Canada Super60 tournament, the Warriors managed 99-8 across ten overs before the Masters easily overtook the total in just 26 deliveries. Alex Lees and George Munsey achieved an unbroken 102-run partnership after Colin Munro fell for a golden duck, with Lees contributing 59 runs from 16 balls and Munsey adding 30 from 11.

The tiny boundary lengths drew heavy criticism online from Herschelle Gibbs and humorous remarks from Sam Billings, while Richard Gleeson was observed beginning his run close to the boundary line. The oversized rectangular venue, BC Place, caused unusually short straight boundaries because it is configured for football rather than cricket.
