@CCrawfordDT @TheCricketerMag @melindafarrell Colston - fully accept your right to an opinion but...as a jounalist please check your facts. Durham has not been a Test Match Ground since relegation in 2016. Durham has made a profit every year since Tim arrived. Tim was a Minor Counties cricketer for Cheshire.

@TheCricketerMag @melindafarrell If he doesn't understand, he doesn't understand cricket. Although I guess he does from the selfish point of view of a Test ground... and a county that has contrived to keep losing millions despite that benefit.

"I don't understand why that can't be sold to the members, as opposed to, we're going to carry on doing what we've done for the last 20 years." 💬 Durham CEO Tim Bostock makes the case for a revamped County Championship | ✍️ @melindafarrell thecricketer.com/Topics/county-…

Before a ball is bowled… As an ex Somerset player I find this appalling... at a time when County Cricket is under pressure for relevance as a breeding ground for International Players and Somerset members have apparently voted for the status quo, the club produces this pitch. These are not first class cricket conditions in midsummer... I am not surprised that Rob and Ben unfortunately have to disregard county performances in assessing players for Test quality appearances. Durham raised serious concerns the day before the game started... change is needed...both Somerset and Durham have high quality batsmen... Somerset do not need to do this... reduces the game to a farce.

Hugely proud of everyone at Durham cricket… good luck to our Women’s team … bring on our first game… April 23rd at the Riverside !! Be there… #ForTheNorth

@BumbleCricket Missing Macca. Aren’t we all…

Talkin fast bowlers ……

@BumbleCricket Some quartet that one… never bettered as a foursome

@NHoultCricket That’s a particularly rare achievement! 😉

Fun evening with our Karachi colleagues at the historic Karachi Press Club. We all ended up looking a bit smarter too

@BumbleCricket One or 2 of my friends in the NE could easily qualify as wild animals too…. Mind, thinking about it, more than 1 or 2….

I have it on good authority that some great players are interested . Each team will consist of 7 human beings of different varieties , 2 wild animals , a domestic pet .. and any member of the pop group , Mud

@WG_RumblePants @nassercricket That is seriously impressive!

FINISHED PORTRAIT OF NASSER HUSSAIN I’m calling it quits on my painting of Nasser there. This one was FAR more challenging than I’d originally imagined. But it was fun to try to achieve a high level of detail. I’d love @nassercricket to see it, so any shares much appreciated 🏏

@BumbleCricket @LengthDoes Strictly speaking T20, T10 and therefore an F5 league… more appropriate as it’ll be be f f f f f kin cold

Got an idea for our Length Does Matter Podcast tomorrow @LengthDoes . A new T League .. The Northumberland Beach T5 Winter League . A bit bracing .. but it’s got legs .. and maybe hyperthermia .. great venues .. bring a flask

@BeefyBotham @BunburyCricket 💔

A friendship which lasted over decades. So many stories, jokes, laughs and memories. A man who did more than most know for English cricket. The biggest heart & personality. Will be missed by us all, good luck to those already up in Heaven, the Loon is on his way! @BunburyCricket

What a man… caring, compassionate, fun and funny… he played a crucial role in the careers of so many cricketers …and he put the lunatic in Loon. The game of cricket has lost one of its greatest supporters RIP Loon 💔

@BumbleCricket Jim

Good question ….

@CricketMirror Jeez… that is a shocker… top man. RIP

Such sad news today. Eddie Buttler was kind and warm and generous and great fun. To tour with him on the 2005 Lions trip to NZ was to enjoy all those qualities and more. Thoughts with his family. RIP.
