I mean, I’m a bit of a sicko. I love sitting down and watching Test matches. I’m going to be in Australia later this year, and the Ashes is going to be on. So that’s something I’m quite excited [about]. I don’t think I’ll be able to get to a game but I’d love to do that.

It wasn't just boys magazines that used the epic heroics of school cricket to lure in young readers between the wars ... it also appealed to young ladies, as this cover from the mid 1930s shows

Happy Easter everyone.

Listening to the BBC’s radio coverage of the County Championship is one of my favourite things about the cricket season.

It’s exceptional. There are so many unique, entertaining, informative voices on the circuit. The YouTube livestreams are great but cricket on the radio is 🔥🔥🔥

A lovely man - will be missed by us all at Worcestershire 🍐🏏

Petition: Hold a referendum on re-joining the European Union I want the government to hold a referendum on whether the UK should Rejoin the European Union.

The Brexiters will tell you that it's too soon to hold another EU referendum but this June it would have been 9 long years since the last one

Given the current state of the UK & the wider world people deserve another chance to vote on #RejoinEU #Brexit petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...
