@JamieMagill5 @RealMarkLatham Anything to the rumours Deano had something with ABs missus?

Always found Allan Border's decision to usurp Dean Jones from the Test Side (and his non-inclusion for the 1993 Ashes Tour) to be incredibly harsh

Before the modern game, there was Dean Jones.🎓 Deano: The heartbeat♥️ of Australian cricket's golden era.

@adrian_rollins Without a settled batting order developing a decent slip cordon was difficult. Team structure is very important & having a keeper & allrounder in the top 7 allows you to pick 5 bowlers. Lewis, DeFreitas, Ealham etc were all tried. Duncan Fletcher insisted on 5 bowlers.

English

Because England lacked either batsman-keeper or a bowling all rounder & rarely played 5 bowlers. Which made picking the wayward Malcolm very difficult. Malcolm had a test bowling average of 37 for a reason.

Steve Waugh - “We were always amazed every-time we played England, Devon Malcolm’s name wasn’t in the team sheet. They always picked medium pacer who were consistent but they never really went for the match winner.” England won only 5 of their 27 Ashes Tests in the 1990s, and Malcolm was a factor in four of those wins - more than any other bowler.

@JamieMagill5 @RealMarkLatham Depends if you’re basing it on their peaks. Peak Botham wins. Then Stokes, Flintoff, Greig.

In what order would you place England all-rounders Tony Greig, Ian Botham, Andrew Flintoff and Ben Stokes? 🏏 @RealMarkLatham

@OversLife Correct. Malcolm didn’t bowl in that test nor did other bowler (Watkin?)

TONIGHT AT 7PM
The final piece of the puzzle.
It’s my ORIGINAL video that was made in December, the one that Hampsons sweet-talked me into deleting.
Thankfully I had a backup, so here it is.

Gaffe-prone Kemi Badenoch denies calling for the UK to join Donald Trump’s war on Iran.
This is a bizarre denial, as I was about 20ft away from her last week when she did exactly that.

This is genuinely extraordinary: x.com/MicloutT/statu…
Speaking is General Sir Richard Shirreff, NATO's former Deputy Supreme Allied Commander Europe.
He says that the UK "should not, in any way, shape or form be involved with the Americans because they are being led by a couple of gung-ho nutters like Trump and Hegseth without a proper strategy and without serious thought about what the end state for this war is."
He goes on: "Yet again we have an American president who has gone to war, a war of choice, a war of hubris frankly, without ANY [the emphasis is his] clear idea of how the war ends and without any clear strategy." He predicts that "this thing is going to go south very, very quickly."
He highlights in particular just how foolish it was to kill Ayatollah Khamenei: "The idea of assassinating the Ayatollah Khamenei who was not just Iran's head of state but he was the religious symbol for Shiites worldwide. Assassinating him during the month of Ramadan is about as subtle as murdering the Pope on the steps of St Peter's in Holy Week. It will inflame the Shiite world and what you're doing by doing that is probably pushing large numbers of Iranians who might have been reconcilable, who might have thought about rising up, back into the fold of the irreconcilable."
