The existence of Mark Butcher infers the existence of Sonny Baker who in turn infers the existence of Jeffrey Candlestick-Maker

After the initial shock and surprise, surely the bowlers umpire calls no ball or dead ball.

Only time I ever really got a googly to turn properly it went for four wides down the leg side after pitching on middle. That was my claim to fame.

Think Lancs have got a good one here in Arav Shetty. Decent hitter of the ball and a quality off spinner.

Before 2005, what did English cricket fans consider "The Greatest Series of All Time (tm)"?

I'm guessing the Fire In Babylon one was iconic but probably not as revered as England dint win.

I have plenty of coffee but mine is on a timer and it'll be done in two minutes. Been awake for nearly an hour.

Jim Lovell, who guided Apollo 13 safely back to Earth, dies aged 97 Commander of Apollo 13, who rescued his men from a near certain death in space, has died aged 97.

The mighty, mighty Jim Lovell.

The first man to go to the moon twice, but never land. Incredible, brilliant and humble man.

β€œNo place for misogyny in cricket”? It’s everywhere. TW: mentions of sexual misconduct, abusive behaviour. On Wednesday morning the Cricket Regulator announced that an unnamed coach has been banned for nine months (three suspended) for β€œinappropriate…

There’s misogyny at every level of cricket, whether you’re a fan, staff, media, player, coach, anything. It’s making women unsafe. It’s making them abandon the sport they love.

If there’s no place for this in cricket, what are you going to do about it?
