Some balance on the Austin Killips story. Shouldn't need to write a piece like this, but it's needed now more than ever. 🌈

@JamesTalksSport Aside from the utter bollocks on display there, isn't Gent a beautiful city to be in since they did similar with their roads

@NoContextCounty Everytime I've watched him and Crawley together, Bell-Drummind has impressed me far more

The fact DBD only averages 34 in first class cricket is insane to me

With his latest double-hundred in the Ranji Trophy, Sarfaraz Khan joins a select list of batters 🙌

@stonojnr @MccaghreyJames Exactly this, his attitude is generally regarded as excellent. In this group that counts for a lot, it's an embarrassment Shelmit had to write that.
English

@MccaghreyJames He should have been given at least a 5, just for turning up for that morning run organised by the fitness coach, that none of the senior players bothered with
English

I wonder why Jacks gets a pass for not doing a job properly, while Bashir gets hammered simply due to bad team management.
Just don't give him a score, rather simple, did they give fisher one, he was added into the squad.

@Finlay363893545 @MccaghreyJames Says they made their ashes debuts together in Australia. Which they didn't. Maybe I'm interpreting wrong, but it's poorly written if so
English

@ChocChainring @MccaghreyJames It says away though? Was it different before

@Finlay363893545 @MccaghreyJames Root played in the 2013 home series

@MccaghreyJames What’s wrong with the original tweet though? They don’t do they?
English

@NoContextCounty He's also perhaps the worst Englishman to play 100 tests

The WHITE (!) gilet in this range is £235. What the hell has happened to this beautiful sport

So Rapha leave the WorldTour and launch the "Could've Gone Pro" line...... content.rapha.cc/us/en/story/co…

@mgbed @nedboulting It's true - the disparity between the WorldTour teams is shocking. But i tgink the answer is to simplify the kit instead of making it an arms race
English

@nedboulting Don't agree.
Anyone can buy kit, it's a choice. Whether they wish to or not is upto them. You will see more riders in this of very average ability with all the gear.
TTs have been like this for years, if you wish to play with the big boys you have to spend big

TNT Sports (UK) has truly been the single-worst way I've followed the Tour de France in the last 10 years. Terrible service. #TDF2025

@Alpen_R @140CharTerror Big respect to Christophe Le Mevel.

@140CharTerror that 2009 top 10 fascinating game of 'who was cleans'

@JamesTalksSport @becgardiner There's little possibility that the director will allow this sort of discussion when they're trying to attract and keep viewers. And here is the problem with the way the media is going - there is increasingly little room for a bit of proper critique
English

@becgardiner Commentators failure to discuss doping sanely is a problem. I haven't seen or heard anything of them (TNT) talking about Ineos' David Rozman's links to Aderlass.
English

@aplaceholderig I cannot stand it. Its annoying me just thinking about why
English

Does anyone actually enjoy the breakaway coverage?
Maybe it’s just me but I find it awfully stale and repetitive? Honest question. Would be interested to hear your thoughts?

@ammattipyoraily @GoldblueBirdie Nibali and Contador were also bringing far greater results with them though
English

@GoldblueBirdie For Nibali, it worked well. Contador also had certain trusted associates.

@medicinexthings If we're talking best riders in the world right now, Hirshi absolutely deserves to be on that list. How many riders do you know that won five straight races?
