A team to give the Barbados side of that era a run for their money….

Can’t make out the copy but in brief, what was her answer? I’m guessing a no-gravity environment plays havoc with the bowels….

When I interviewed late Space Shuttle astronaut Dr. Mary L. Cleave at IIT, Madras in 1987 I asked her why after all these years @NASA still struggled with toilets in space. Seems 39 years later it remains a problem @elonmusk @neeran @NASAWatch

Influence of T20….. stands on leg stump and stays there, right eye never gets near off stump so he can judge the line

He was also whistled up to bowl v Sri Lanka B in Kandy when a bunsen burner was produced, he was assistant manager of England B at the time. Typically he was the best spinner in the match and modest to a fault. They don’t make many like Giff any more…….

JC has been offering solutions to this for yonks but neither ECB or State schools of Govt seem that interested….

I'm biased, because I edited it, but in my view this is a must-read (and very balanced) piece about state school cricket from someone who has been an authority on schools cricket for decades.

Top bloke Mick. The Lord’s square was his fiefdom and he ruled it with a scarifier and a heavy roller but also a wheelbarrow full of good humour. RIP and leave some grass on upstairs for the bowlers…
Lord's Cricket Ground@HomeOfCricket
We are deeply saddened by the passing of Mick Hunt, former Head Groundsman at Lord's. Mick was a very popular character among MCC Members and staff, and his huge smile a permanent feature around the Ground for 49 years, having joined the Lord's groundstaff in 1969 and retiring in 2018. Few people can attest to being so indelibly connected to the history of Lord's. We offer our sincere condolences to his family.

Game chase by Bethell and England…….but India nailed their Harry Porkers well (still the best ball when boundaries required)….

An average of Three runs for every ball faced - doesn’t sound much does it? But there are bowling figures for South Africa, following Finn Allen’s mauling, that no amount of CPR will resuscitate…..

Harry Brook’s shift to No 3 brings a swaggering 100 off 51 balls and a semi-final place for his team….. England hitting form at right time or is such a concept irrelevant in hit and giggle?

Who’d have thought a grippy pitch like Pallekele would become fortress England…..
