George Helps of Sevenoaks thinks he can make cricket more exciting by
reducing matches to a single innings, and has filed a patent for his idea (GB 2
315 416). The match starts with team A declaring a notional first innings score,
which is the number of runs it thinks it might have scored had it played a first
innings. This score is then offered to team B, which can either adopt the score
as its own and take the field to bowl at team A, or decide to bat, assigning
team A the notional score. One innings is then played to decide the match.
