If the ECB want a successful national side then they should invest more in those formats at county level.
I'm not sure it was needed. There is certainly interest though and interest that surpasses anything crowd wise seen before in Wales.

If something can be set up and surpass Glamorgan crowd figures in two years then it says more about what was not being done or being done incorrectly before than anything groundbreaking The Hundred are doing.

It shows though that people will turn up in Wales in numbers if it is marketed properly and they feel they're getting entertainment for their money.
I don't think people will watch a rubbish team though, Welsh or otherwise.
