You’re having a cricket dinner party. You can invite eight (currently living) cricket-related guests. Who are you having? For me it’s: Dennis Lillee Nasser Hussain Viv Richards Alec Stewart Virat Kohli Mike Brearley Imran Khan Ricky Ponting

Two pictures I took 42 years ago today on the final day of the 6th Test at The Oval at the end of the historic Ashes of 1981. England were facing defeat before Mike Brearley (51) and Alan Knott (70*), both in their final Tests, saved the day

Derek Randall was always up for a bit of clowning, but not when the serious business was underway as the look on his face here clearly shows - a wonderful fielder throughout his career this is the sort of thing he was renowned for

@guardian_sport @tjaldred Excellent article! Mike was great company on my Once Upon a Time in the Ashes podcast earlier this year. Here's a clip from the episode... twitter.com/OnceAshes/stat…

Mike Smith and @Athersmike's long association with each other went back to U13 Roses cricket. But on the eve of Mike's Test and Ashes debut, Athers took a shine to Mike's bowling in the nets and slogged him to all parts of Headingley. Full story on the latest episode - out now!

This Botham/Chappell reunion is toe-curlingly awkward & hilariously funny - mainly because it exposes ‘Chappelli’ as a monumentally bitter & twisted d*ckhead who’s never got over being floored by @BeefyBotham 👊🤣

@bbctms I thought it was earlier. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿’s approach to the short ball made me properly angry. But then I think back to where we were pre-Bazball. It was SO bleak. This was always going to be its biggest challenge. Positivity is the right approach but I wish it was a little bit more nuanced.

@ErikaMorris79 @MatthewDaubney Probably depends more on conditions and time in the match. He needs to bowl them out again so needs enough time for that and the run chase. But the unpredictability is brilliant. Every session is becoming an event.

Some people have got really short memories. Are we playing faultless cricket? No. Are we dominating the Aussies? No. Is this moments of madness balanced with moments of brilliance better than the dross served up under Silverwood? Yes. I know which I would rather.

@ErikaMorris79 Exactly. It was superb! Cricket/ life can always be better in retrospect. Every Test captain should feel a responsibility to entertain. If weather is not an issue no 5 day game should end in a draw.

@GlennHoddle More magic in those boots than Houdini, Potter and Paul Daniels combined! Enjoyed your interview in @TheCricketerMag. My podcast features Ken Taylor and Arnie Sidebottom who played cricket for Yokshire and football for Huddersfield (Ken) and Man Utd (Arnie). Could have been you!

@danbrettig Cannot wait to see this! Chappelli was great value on my Once Upon a Time in the Ashes podcast... twitter.com/OnceAshes/stat…
Once Upon a Time in the Ashes@OnceAshes

On Ashes Eve #2 and with Ian Chappell trending it seems a good time to share this clip about his thoughts on captaincy. The original aggressive captain. Check out the full interview with Chappelli on Once Upon a Time in the Ashes - wherever you get your podcasts.
