RIP.
Taken from us far too early but absolutely never forgotten.

- What an absolute supreme broadcaster Harsha Bhogle is - arguably the best cricket commentator in the world on radio or TV. Proof surely that you don't have to be a former player to make it!
- Solidarity among two cricketing 'brothers' - a lovely sight!
- The world of cricket has a giant. A 'Prince of spin' bowling and a true gentleman. Cricket has lost a true original thinker who caught no favour from anyone. He was a man who displayed conviction and integrity at all times in equal measure. He was a truly GREAT MAN. RIP.
- Rest in Peace, 'Deadly' Derek Underwood. I feel lucky to have seen him play. One of the most unplayable bowlers of all time without a shadow of a doubt. He was a complete 'one-off'. He was also a very kindly and super friendly individual to whoever he met. Very very sad indeed!
- I've just read on the BBC that Mike Procter has died. Our beautiful game has lost a cricketing god. Of all the players I've been lucky enough to see play live over the past 45+ years, Michael John Procter was the best of the lot of them! What pleasure he gave us all! RIP.

- The blame for England's current ODI malaise must lay squarely and solely with the ECB for peddling The Hundred (even at the expense of the Ashes) and totally sidelining the domestic 50 Over game. As they say, you reap what you sow. Get rid of The Hundred now!
- Two of the all time great all rounder cricketers and captains.
- You didn't have to come. You could have stayed home and stayed safe - and no one would have blamed you! But you did come despite the challenges in my country! You decided to get cricket 'back on the road' and for that all fans owe 'you guyz' a huge debt of gratitude and thanks!
- Two 'Little Masters'!
