The Hundred-the new language of post-cricket
With the Hundred, a new marketing inspired form of post-cricket due to start in July, there is discussion about what terms should be used to describe parts of the activity which were previously part of cricket. An early suggestion has been to replace wicket taking with ‘outs’. I have added a few more possibilities:

Wickets- Outs
Batsmen/women- Whackers
Umpires- Judges
Fielders- ballmen/women
Wicket Keepers- banterman/woman
The Bowler- The Deliverer
