Honestly, the main thing I wanted from the Ashes has now happened. I'm freerolling for the rest of the series, go on Rooty.

England could lose from here.

We're aware that our podcast hasn't come through on Spotify yet, good news is that you can find it elsewhere! 🤔 Did England blow it with the bat? 🔥 Is this their most exciting bowling attack? 💪 How good was Mitchell Starc? #TheAshes podcasts.apple.com/ne/podcast/sto…

Worst pitch in moden Ashes history? These guys get paid millions to hit a ball with a stick, and they literally have no idea where it's going to go.

New rule proposal: the umpire checks the ball at the start of every over, if they want to change it then they do it unilaterally. Nobody else is allowed to talk about the ball.

You're telling me that bowling 17 full tosses a game isn't a good strategy? Stupid data nerd, ruining cricket.

Strike Rate is back! Myself & @JackHope0 chatted all things IPL auction & player valuations, and gave some more insight into my price model. We also answered a lot of listener questions! open.spotify.com/episode/0pAv0F…

Coming out of slight Twitter retirement, to tell anyone who will listen, to go and see Battlesnake!

Lying in a hospital bed for over two months in the winter, not knowing if or how I would recover from both endocarditis and major heart surgery, it’s easy to spend a lot of spare time daydreaming, staring at the ceiling. One of the things I wondered about a lot was whether I’d ever be well enough to able to work in another cricket tournament. Sometimes when I was ill and especially before surgery I took my recovery for granted, and the medical experts (genuine geniuses), my hero of a wife and my amazing family did well to hide quite how grave my condition was, particularly with my autoimmune issues wreaking havoc too. My cardiologists and rheumatologist have told me the truth recently about how lucky I actually have been. So, I’m incredibly grateful to be fit & well again, and feel so lucky to be back doing what I love. Leaving Kent before the start of this year’s T20 Blast slightly delayed this process, but now I’m pretty much back to full strength here ahead of the knockouts in the fourth season in The Hundred.  I’m really excited ahead of these next few days but also know that, whatever happens, cricket doesn’t define you as a human being and that the most important things in life, as well as the biggest challenges, are away from sport. It would be amazing to have your support over the next few days - I’m sure everyone at Phoenix will all be doing their best to entertain you 🧡

Serbia will be kicking themselves.

That could literally only happen to Scotland.

Are England good? Still don't really know.
