30-40 mins is a long time for "meditation". I'm usually in and out of the toilet in 15 minutes, longer if I take a book

Tough crowd, score the fastest ever T20 hundred, be the fastest scorer of the top scorers and you still don't get a look in.

She's a Jorja and yes I agree, she can do it all on both defence and attack plus she seems to absolutely love her work!

Is it your 30th? Or am I, as usual, missing the point?

What about Annabel Sutherland not only winning Player of the Match but also Player of the Series?

Sorry to hear that, hopefully just a precaution rather than a concussion

No sorry, just got home and going out again soon

The PM and I have written to New Zealand's White Ferns to congratulate them on their extraordinary World Cup win. This is an amazing time to be a NZ cricket fan!

Captain of the New Zealand White Ferns
Dear Sophie
We are writing to congratulate you and the entire White Ferns team on your extraordinary achievement of winning the 2024 ICC T20 World Cup.
The excitement generated across New Zealand by your win has been tremendous, with jubilant cricket fans of all ages inspired by your performance.
There were so many moments of brilliance from the White Fems across the series that it's clear this was genuinely a team effort.
As well as being inspired by your success, young cricket fans-and indeed, all New Zealanders- have been set a v a wonderful of example of resilience and teamwork. As you've said publicly, the team went into the World Cup off the back of a difficult period. To have held your nerve and backed yourselves to win is a testament to the White Ferns' strength and professionalism.
We know that you will be proud of your success in the World Cup, but please know that New Zealand is proud of you too.
Best of luck for the rest of the summer, and we look forward to hosting you at Parliament later this
year.
Yours sincerely
Rt Hon Christopher Luxon Prime Minister

Well there's an easy answer to that one given they won the World T20 18 months ago. This is a letter sent to the team after their victory which implies that he wasn't there to see it.

You'll need a lie down! I bought a book and had coffee and some lunch out - might need to take to my bed for the rest of the day

Not watching this Spurs game but it is objectively hilarious. Take the lead in the 34th minute - cram in a red card and 3 goals conceded before half-time.

Thank you Mr Glasner, Doctor Tottenham will see now.

Dyche to Spurs? Frank to Forest?
