- I have seen (on a train platform in January I'll add) a chap go to play a forward defensive only to turn it into a stylish leave as he didn't want to be playing at the width of the imaginary ball.This is normal behaviour. 👍 📸 - Twitter/@neharedy
- A premeditated Mankad. Is this what the world has come to? I know the pro Mankaders and anti Mankaders will debate this all night long but whatever happened to the Spirit of Cricket?
- I think Jarvo 69 might have a court order coming his way. Banned from all cricket grounds.
- 10th September 2021. Is today the day when T20 overtook Test cricket?
- Chris Tavare is 68 years old today. Rumours that it took him 175 years to reach this age are unsubstantiated.
- Interesting from this newspaper. Short memories of people crying at press conferences, it has to be said.
- If you want to go to England v Pakistan and sit in the lower Grand Stand at Lord's, a mere £165 will secure your ticket. In a year where a lot of people have lost their jobs, the ECB have lost their marbles, customers and quite possibly, the next generation.
- Seeing as England have not won a Test match there for 14 years, these are pretty brave predictions.The Ashes predictions are in 🏏 Do you side with Sir Alastair Cook or Graeme Swann? 👀
- If this was Pope it would be crashing into middle half way up.
- Dear ECB, It was never broken - 50 or 20. Yours sincerely, County Cricket Fans
- Derbyshire, Essex and Worcestershire showed us today why 18 counties make up the fabric of our domestic game. It is NOT all about the Test match grounds. It is all 18 counties. Don't mess with our game, Mother Cricket will bite you on the arse.
- Bairstow technically out under the laws but to get a Lord's crowd singing "same old Aussies, always cheating" takes some doing. Yes it is out but remember only a few years back how it all ended in tears for this 'win at all costs' attitude from Australia.
