In a world where you can be anything, be kind of weird, especially in awkward social situations.

Bethell could play with Chris Woakes against England's best ever batter a week on Friday if he wanted to. And he'd have a chance to build an innings on a difficult pitch with a ball that actually does something... Or he can whack a bowling machine around in the nets.

Is being in the nets with Kholi is qualitatively better than playing a four-day game against Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow? Surrey's entire top six has played multiple tests for England. That's not a bad environment to be in is it?

About 50% of Div One County Championship matchday squad players have international caps, vs about 65% in the IPL. Not a massive difference, esp if the dozen or so IPL players from England went back. I'd add that flat Indian T20 wickets are not good prep for English test wickets.

Alastair Cook has absolutely NO IDEA what it's like to be in the IPL. What's it's like to always be around the best players in the world. So his opinion on Jacob Bethell doesn't matter at all. Stay in India, Jacob. I know, even though you're not playing, you're learning and will be a way better player. 👍🏻

The Wokerati actually wanted to rename it The Gay of Hormuz.

People are unlikely to rise up if they're too scared to leave their houses because of all the air raids.

I may be wrong but I don't remember Bush at his worst saying anything quite this chilling. What happened to Iranians freeing themselves? Now he's teasing annihilation.

@NicholasTyrone There's an argument to say that blowing the thing up is not always the best way to deal with the thing.

This poll says some sad things about Britain in 2026. There is this “progressive” bloc of voters who somehow won’t go along with the destruction of an authoritarian, anti-gay, anti-feminist regime because of “vibes”. Liberalism js dying because liberals refuse to be liberal.

@CrossCountryUK your website and app won't allow my wife to book a season ticket due to "technical difficulties". She will have to buy a single or return instead. How can she get that refunded when your "technical difficulties" are done and she can buy a season ticket.

@CrossCountryUK You could have just scrolled up and saved me having to type this. Explain why my wife can't buy a season ticket on your website due to technical difficulties that have been ongoing for several months.

@henrymoeranBBC Do they not have to disqualify one of the other teams for commercial reasons if India doesn't get through?

The only way England don’t go to Mumbai is if South Africa lose to Zimbabwe and India then jump above SA on NRR with a massive win over West Indies, making India Q1 in their group, and therefore guaranteed to play Q2 from England’s group with their Mumbai guarantee. Simple!

So England top the group and qualify to play? Well, actually, who knows? And more importantly - where? They must now wait until India face West Indies on Sunday. It’s pre-determined India will play in Mumbai in semi-final 2 if they qualify. So until that’s sorted, they wait…

I don't think the Greens offer anything apart from flower power NIMBYism, unrealistic calculations, UBI fantasies, and ill thought out demilitarisation. But at least they're not fascists.

You've seen now that if Farage doesn't win a majority, he will say it was stolen from him and likely attempt a legal challenge. At worst, he may use dog whistle tactics to invite riots in the way he did after the Southport attack.

Farage's bizarre reenactment of the Trump stolen election strategy is particularly pathetic given it's for a single seat in a by election. He's seemingly sobbed his way into getting what he wants as well, given all his party colleagues were dismissing it as a factor this morning.
