Hopefully denphone as i love the 50 over format rather then the pro 40 stuff.

Australia are touring this year and my county Essex have been given a proper 50 over one day game against them,rather then a 3 day no result fest.

The 40 over game in the uk is rather odd as the international format is 50 overs as per the old friends provident 50 over comp,before it went all 20/20.
