@WG_RumblePants I'm not sure if their omission from your list was deliberate or not, but I'm sure one or two Aussies of that era could have been useful T20 players. As much as it pains me to say it, they didn't win the world cup in 1987 and 1999 by not knowing how to play limited overs cricket

I’ve been trying to think of 80s and 90s cricketers who missed out on the franchise revolution, but who may have been big money players (if they’d had the chance). So far I’ve got: Sir Viv Richards Sir Curtly Ambrose Courtney Walsh Sir Ian Botham Darren Gough Graham Gooch Robin Smith Kapil Dev Anil Kumble Mohammad Azharuddin Allan Donald Lance Klusener Javed Miandad Saeed Anwar Imran Khan Wasim Akram Waqar Younis Who have I missed out?

@LancsCCMG @ACScricket The Vaughans, Flintoffs and Atherton/de Caires all seem like they could have been done. Sadly with the latter two having Lancashire connections it seems unlikely that Jimmy would have the opportunity to claim them in a first class match.

Jimmy has dismissed James and David Sales in his career. What are the other examples of one bowler dismissing both father and son in first class cricket? One for the excellent records of the @ACScricket to consider?

Not sure what has happened in the hotel I'm staying in for them to put up a sign saying not to play cricket with hedgehogs 🤔

@voigthill Ryan Patel retiring out then coming back to bay again thirty six minutes later (or possibly less) sure is an interesting move

Fairly certain this is the most hideous scorecard I've ever seen

@WestHam_Central I'm feeling pretty confident in saying Burnley and Wolves will go down.

Who will be relegated from the Premier League?

@MonkEmma I always wonder if they view stirring up baseless conflict in this way as worth the pennies that they receive from Elon Musk for the engagement it generates. They surely must realise what they post is utter nonsense

Because of course Allison Pearson buys into it. How do people like her live with the shame and embarrassment that must (should) come from pumping out this BS day in and day out? Are her family proud? I don’t get it. What a soulless existence she must have. Lucrative, I’m sure, but 🙄

@JaysterW @StokeyyG2 West Ham are currently a single point behind Tottenham. You think that Spurs aren't going to win another match, but also that West Ham can only catch them if they beat Wolves, despite having a further six games afterwards. That doesn't make sense.

@StokeyyG2 If West Ham don’t beat Wolves they are down If West Ham beat Wolves, they have a chance of overhauling Spurs who I can’t see winning another game with Tudor in charge

Spurs’s final 7 Premier League fixtures and West Ham’s final 7 fixtures… Who stays up?

@DebbieTully2 @Mr_Sal_ I don't know about anyone else but I'd prefer a hot calm bun than a hot cross bun.

@Mr_Sal_ What about the hot cross buns with no cross??? 🤣

Not a single mention of Easter; we're a Christian country FFS.🤬

@BenGrahamUK Maybe actually have a read of the boxes...

Britain has been a Christian nation for over 1,400 years. Through wars, plagues, and countless kings, Easter has always been celebrated. Yet now, Cadbury won’t even use the word ‘Easter’ on their eggs. When did celebrating British traditions become controversial?

@AlexMUFC18 @LewisBowden_ It treats a player with 105 goals and 100 assists as equal to one who has 200 goals and 100 assists.

@LewisBowden_ Whats misleading about it?

He’s clearly class but this might be the most misleading stat I’ve ever seen.

@eurofootcom Goal of the day? Arguably it wasn't even Payet's best goal he scored that day!

🇫🇷🥶 #GoalOfTheDay | Dimitri Payet vs Blackburn (2016)

@BhavyaOnSports @icelandcricket ... His bowling average in 2025 was 23. Sometimes being an all rounder one side of your game goes fantastically whilst the other struggles. He's probably batting a position too high but he's not getting dropped.

@icelandcricket Ben Stokes. Incredible leader, incredible story. But his batting average in 2025 was 28. If his name wasn’t Stokes that number gets you dropped. The captaincy halo protects him from scrutiny.

Who is currently the most overrated cricketer in the world?

@_Hyunflower_ Someone mentioned that Paris is affected too... I can't believe they didn't have a back up system in place ready for this eventuality

@dr__alex Youre not the only one, from what i understand its the whole airport! Im stuck too

I've been stuck in a queue for passport checks at Stockholm airport for forty minutes. Nobody getting through. Seems the entry system for non-EU nationals is down seemingly without a back up system being in place. Utterly ridiculous.

@dave43law If the polls suggest greater support for the Tories than Reform will Farage and Co ditch their ridiculous shadow job titles?

Fascinating downhill path Until recently there was never a FON poll that showed Reform under 30%plus

@McivorJaymey Aye, cos every other country has joined in America's bombing campaign. You could of course stand back and rationalise the situation normally and realise that the USA under Trump is the country that has lost its allies. Cosying up to such a country isn't a great strategic move.

Our Prime Minister is ‘Billy No Mates’ on the world stage. He humiliates our nation. He is weak. He’s got to go. Britain deserves better - our future depends on it.

@MumofFatCassie And if he (or rather his team) were busy putting updates in Twitter those same people would be criticising him for speaking without finding out all the facts and condemning him for being on social media rather than assessing the situation.

I see Starmer's getting stick again for prioritising chairing COBR meetings and discussing the situation in the Middle East with world leaders rather than posting on Twitter. #bbcaq #bbcpm

@mralistairgreen Strange... my source who is EXTREMELY deep in the workings of the voting system says the result (which he has known for over six months) is only MILDLY interesting. All this revelation has done has led to even greater intrigue.

Just received the Galton and simpson or whatever election result from my source inside the count . Cant say too much atm for legal reasons but very interesting. VERY interesting indeed.

@MPrepuce I'm telling everyone I'm Shadow Home Secretary because it's fun seeing the terror in people's eyes when I do it. Also, I'd much appreciate it if you don't call me an unelected mindless arsehole. Oh hang on, are you meaning the other guy who is doing it?

Can somebody please tell me why an unelected mindless arsehole who isn't Shadow Home Sec, is strutting around telling everyone he is Shadow Home Sec?

@PolitlcsUK @siennamarla So we're going from Farage Riots to Farage Civil War?

🚨 NEW: Reform UK MP Danny Kruger says a British civil war is possible if they don’t win the next general election “If we don’t win, or if we win and then make a mess of it, I do fear for our country” [@siennamarla]
