Cricket at least had the insight to add a format where you aren't playing for five freaking days.
But aside from that it looks a lot like baseball:
- One team is batting, two guys on the pitch
- There's a load of data about what kind of bowl to do
- Lots of separate events with measurable data
- Your main issue is risk (trying to stay in), but risk will be better and better understood: dropping the ball gives away a lot of runs, as does taking batting risks.
Not gonna end well once the data people come for it.
