no more batsman , mcc says it should be batter

'Batter' to replace 'batsman' in MCC's new Laws of Cricket
The change, which will also apply to the term 'batsmen', has been implemented to reinforce the sense that cricket is 'inclusive for all'

Ah well, I'm sure we can all get through this

'When the MCC
say you
say "batter"
(you batter, you batter, you bat...)'

What's wrong with batswoman

Utter tripe

batshit crazy

battershit crazy!

I guess since we can't use batsman/batswomen nor "actress" anymore, they won't mind if we refer to Kate Middleton as "Prince Kate" from now on. Long live King Elizabeth!

I'll start saying batter when they remove Mary from their own name.

Its about time they removed male and female signs from toilets by removing all urinals and just having a load of cubicles which can then be renamed toilets for all ,how dare they differentiate between men and women batsmen and batswomen

Fielding position of Third Man needs serious attention.

I guess 12th man is now confined to the history books

It took me ages to work out how Rachel Haynes could have had a baby, having just played in the 2nd ODI!

seems betfair going woke as well, just noticed today for the ipl match betting top batter not batsman

ps at least bet fred goes batsman

Next they'll be asking for equal pay!
