@philsteele1 See you at the Sussex match in Hove?

@IanPlayfair Excellent news Ian, thank you for your hard work. I look forward to receiving my copy, already pre-ordered, and taking it to Lord’s on 3 April.

@JANUSZCZAK I studied the H of A at Uni. The subject is completely misunderstood. When studying H of A you view history through the lens of artist. In order to understand art you have to grasp of social, economic and political history. But some think it is just looking at pictures.

This made me so sad. 👇 How on earth did we get to a stage where Art History is deemed so lowly and unimportant and unnecessary that only 800 people a year take thé A-level! Madness. It’s the human story. Frôm thé very beginning. Before there were words, there was art.
Dr. Bendor Grosvenor 🇺🇦@arthistorynews
My Art Newspaper article from last month on the decline of art history as a subject. (Still amused by the QAA disliking even the word art - a ‘historical construct rooted in European colonial expansion’.)

@IanPlayfair @Stevemann84 I am told that it will arrive on 2nd April!

@Stevemann84 Thanks for that. Great to hear when I’m in the middle of the final push.

@ShaunParryJones I’ll do the required 778 as part of my nightly sleep walk! 😉

@philsteele1 That really hurt today Phil, really hurt. I can't imagine how the players feel but so proud of their performance.

@WG_RumblePants @stephanshemilt @ChatilPandi I’m not sure if it is possible but what happens if the two teams were to meet in the final? Would Pakistan refuse to play?
English

@stephanshemilt @ChatilPandi Well, yes, no argument there. But when teams participating (or not participating) and even where tournaments are held is determined by geopolitics rather than the good of the game, the ICC doesn’t have many levers at their disposal.
English

The governance of global cricket is an utter shambles. The ICC essentially exists only to organise major tournaments and is now struggling to do that.
Test Match Special@bbctms
The Pakistani government have announced that the team will travel to Sri Lanka for the tournament but will not play their fixture against India scheduled for the 15th February. The ICC are yet to comment.
