Yeah, I mean, I think particularly for Glamorgan and Welsh cricket, the 100 has given us the chance to really transcend what's a difficult and fairly challenging macroeconomic environment and take us in a different direction.

And I think just to echo what Sanjay's been highlighting, I think the cultural fit between the two parties has been excellent and has developed exactly as we thought it would be.

When we first started the 100 process, I think we met around 15 investors there.

in the first round.

And I think even from that time, we were definitely focused in, and I think Sanjay would agree with this, on getting together with Sanjay Govel and Washington Freedom.

And I think that's proved to be absolutely the correct partner for us.

I think we can move quicker.

There's no big corporate hierarchy.

Sanjay and I and our respective teams can sort out issues very quickly.

No big corporate structure, very much adaptability, and we're very much looking forward

to the tournament.

I think in terms of the traditional membership of county cricket clubs, they tend to prefer traditional red ball cricket.

I think the beauty of cricket compared to a lot of other sports is that you can watch the format that you enjoy.

And I think the most important thing, actually...

about the 100 is that it's brought a completely different demographic and a younger demographic into the sport so if i can just throw out some statistics maybe i'm not answering the question directly but these are interesting statistics

and pick up on what Vic was saying earlier, 46% of ticket buyers are new to Sophia Gardens, 30% of female buyers, and 46% of family tickets.

And our ticket sales are 7% up in 26 than they were last year.

You know, there's a different demographic, and I wouldn't expect necessarily the membership to completely embrace the 100, but they do support Glamorgan Cricket fully.

So...

Yeah, I think choose the format.
