There are only 2 players required to connect Tendulkar to Hutton in Test cricket Len Hutton -> Colin Cowdrey -> Imran Khan -> Sachin Tendulkar. Would you like to know any others? I wrote a simple program to estimate this today (my Sunday entertainment)...

That's a first... I've never seen that before... the bowler dismisses the batter and then gives the non-striker a send off!

This gent is able to keep the field setting in mind when he watches cricket. He's 1-0 up on about 95% of the press box.

The level of cricketing discourse in this nation is a disgrace to avid fans like the one in this video.

Croatia are basically the New Zealand of football. Modric is basically Williamson.

AUS are coming to the end of a cycle too. They've been magnificent. But consider these ages: Khawaja 38 Lyon 37 Smith 36 Starc 35 Hazlewood 34 Carey 33 Cummins 32 Head 31 Their bowlers, opener and best player mostly be gone by 2027. Carey too perhaps.

Don't take Shami, Bumrah, Ashwin, Jadeja, Siraj, Ishant, Umesh for granted if you are an IND fan. You will live a whole life time and you won't get so many great bowlers all at once. What they've achieved is extraordinary. They're mostly done now. Be prepared to lose a lot more.

Lahore is an epic road... ENG made 350 and they seemed 30 short. IND played a Test match here in 2006. They bowled first and PAK made 679/7. IND replied with 410/1. That was the whole Test.

Wolvaardt is the best batter I've seen in the women's game. Healy is thrilling, but Wolvaardt has a lot of class.

The gray team would beat the blue team 5-0 in a 5 Test series, 10-0 in a 10 Test series, 15-0 in a 15 Test series, and so on. The gray team is one of the 3-4 greatest teams in the history of Test cricket. The blue team was a mid-table side in 2000s.

They chased 115 in the last 60 balls with 6 wickets in hand. 48 in the last 18. In front of 90,000 people.

Bairstow and RGS have a combined age of 73. Must be among the oldest opening pairs in the history of the IPL

Starc's ball to KLR was 87 mph, it swung 2.95 degrees and then seamed 0.56 degrees. It pitched on 6.12m length on middle-and-off stump. The total reaction time to from release to interception was 0.47 seconds. No human being in history can play that. It's literally unplayable.

Maxwell basically averages the same as Jayasurya or Gilchrist did, and scores roughly 30% quicker in ODI cricket. And he does it despite batting after the powerplay.

Jasprit Bumrah managed 19 wickets at 17 apiece in 4 Tests - nearly 5 wickets per Test, on these pitches. He took a wickets every 33 balls. That's worth about a 1000 runs in the series.
