I trace Bangladesh fast bowling's resurgence from the dark ages of 2018 when the think-tank didn't even bother picking a fast bowler, to a sweet May evening in 2026 when the fast bowlers blew away Pakistan in their spin fort Mirpur. espncricinfo.com/story/ban-vs-p…

🚨Story time out now! @afidelf joins the show for an unlikely tale of an unlikely nap, one with real consequence. There's also a Welsh excursion for a squad of Western Australians, the kid who won player-of-the-match from well down the pecking order. pod.fo/e/41249c

@steve_hanke …and that’s why you’re proposing a currency board? (Some of us have Lankan economy bingo cards to complete)

Until the currency crisis hit Sri Lanka in 2019, it was growing on par with India. Contrary to reports in the Western media, since the crisis and the IMF’s intervention, the economy has never recovered.

why are you getting so pressed I was tweeting in my personal capacity as just a guy
proright@Proright1

@afidelf That's a BCCI video not an ICC one. He is in his personal capacity as an Indian not as an ICC chairman. Stop pretending to be a whiny Brit you are not one of them. This is a clear case of sour grapes ungrateful bastards these Lankans 🤡🤡

Ten shots of ICC Chair Jay Shah. One shot of Player of the Tournament Sanju Samson. No shots of bowling MVP Jasprit Bumrah (aside from trophy shot). The BCCI and ICC are telling you in broad daylight what is important to them, and where they are taking the sport.

What a wonderful article by @afidelf on Sanju Samson @ESPNcricinfo . Brilliant writing. To be spoken of in the same sentence as Richards, Warne, Aravinda means Sanju has done something very special.

@afidelf Your Espncricinfo feature titled: Sanju Samson, number one in a field of one It’s one of the stories that goes beyond just another Cricket Story. You narrated a legend in such a way that I couldn’t stop from giving a positive feedback to you. Hats off to your story!

My favourite cricket bard/wordsmith of this generation, @afidelf channeling his muses to honour Sanju the batsman in his inimitable, eloquent style. "His bat butterfly-kisses the ball, and as if a whisper has passed and permission has been given, the ball squeals away on a high and euphoric trajectory, rotating giddily as it travels, back somersault after back somersault after back somersault". espncricinfo.com/story/ind-vs-e…
