Poll results and a new poll

My last poll asked you what should be done about the stress fracture crisis in New Zealand cricket. Six of you believed that free milk should be reintroduced into our school classrooms, two of you wanted to set an example and deter others by shooting a few stress fracture sufferers, and four of you wanted to ban cricketers from participating in any activities apart from cricket that involved use of their backs (having sex, sleeping, sitting, walking etc). Everyone thought that dosing the water supply with titanium and selecting only cricketers who are already in wheelchairs were not goers.

Of course, it did transpire that the entire crisis was a bit of an over-reaction as Jake Oram and Dan Vettori didn't actually have the damn things. Perhaps I should have included a "bugger it, it'll sort itself out" option in the poll?

You might like to wait a couple of days to vote in my new poll. Twenty20 cricket hits New Zealand on Thursday and I want your verdict on its impact on the one-day game.
