Most? Nope

More stattos in football tbh.

I do find 'most' people I know that enjoy watching longer form cricket have played it at some level though. I'm the odd one out.

I probably marginally prefer the crash bang wallop stuff if I'm actively watching, but the longer form used to be great as something to listen to whilst studying/revising/chilling in the sunshine.

With kids I just don't have the luxury of being able to devote as much listening time to it any more.
