I think all doubles should be on pot. That would generate great camaraderie, sometimes with team mates, sometimes with pool fairies dancing in ones peripheral vision. And the bars would make more money. If they sold cookies.

I am loving all of these threads. They remind me of the "good ol' days" when Off the Break was anonymous. Thanks to all for giving me something to enjoy on a horrible day at work. Cheers.

Nobody wants Lenny Doubles? I thought Jeff Potter would love the idea.

Hi guys, sorry to butt in on the Boomtown Rats love-in!
Having consulted with my team I'll be voting to keep the doubles as is - the home team calls scotch or regular. I think a lot of other captains will be doing the same. A lot of players outside the top teams don't feel confident enough to play scotch as they don't have the requisite white ball skills. They also feel more pressure as if they make a mistake it affects their partner directly.
The average ranking of players in the IPL is probably in the low 1600s (is there any way to check this?). I think that this needs to be considered when legislating for the league.

Thanks Mark. A little higher than I thought, but my point still stands.
