2016: GB hockey 🥇 2017: England cricket 🥇 2018: England netball 🥇 Three glorious moments in sport. Three glorious moments in women's team sport. Three game changing moments.

Test cricket. 50 over cricket. T20 cricket. It’s just the best sport in the world. #SAvENG 🏏

This picture. The Freddie Flintoff/Brett Lee moment 14 years on. Sums up everything we love about sport. #cwc19 @englandcricket

First time in 21 years there’s been a Wimbledon men’s singles champion not called Federer, Djokovic, Nadal or Murray. Incredible coolness from a 20 year old. 👏

This is how I will remember Marieke Vervoort, living every little moment. You can hear again our documentary from 2016, about her decision to sign euthanasia papers, on @bbc5live after midnight. Cheers, Marieke. We’ll never forget you 🥂

Thank you, @HomeOfCricket. My cricket loving Dad, who took me to my first ever Ashes Test here in 1977, would have been absolutely chuffed. As were my brothers, my nephew and I. #LoveLords

Five years ago today, we lost my Dad, Colin Oldroyd. He introduced me to cricket. He loved his family, good wine, bad puns. And being an MCC member. We sent him on his way with his red pass in his pocket, to ease his way into the Great Celestial Pavilion.

One of the most remarkable people I have ever had the privilege of meeting, Marieke Vervoort, has died. World champion, Paralympic champion, and extraordinary human being.
