beautiful weather here today isn't it !! :)

Agree. Think Sam Curran would be pure fodder on Australian pitches. Not sure Woakes overseas record is relevant as he's missed most of the recent tours through injury. Sure I touted Garton on here last year. Got genuine pace and can bat pretty well. Ashes success going to be about a much...

Tbf he was identified early in county cricket as someone who was supposed to end up being a batsman who could bowl a bit. His white ball cricket (where he can use variations etc) is based on batsmen attacking him to get his wickets. His red ball bowling struggles desperately with consistency...

RIP Sean Lock - a genuinely funny man. Had obviously struggled with his health a while ago when he was doing the "8 out of 10 cats does countdown"

This team needs to toughen up. Mentally weak and Root needs captaincy lessons. Kohli has that "nasty" side when he's on the field. Bowlers and Root looked lost in that period before lunch. But an abject batting performance. Was that 3 or 4 1st ballers in the match? Problem is with no red ball...

Anderson is just a pleasure to watch. Can't believe he's nearly 40. Sibley highlighting problem of current calender. Sandwiching nearly all white ball cricket between 2 Test series not helping the Test side at all. Sibley needed county cricket to sort his confidence out as Test teams have worked...

He's a lower order batsmen who can bowl a bit. For someone bowling at around 80 mph he lacks a surprising amount of consistency in both line and length. Think his lack of height limits him more in red ball cricket. But Lords yesterday should have good conditions for a left armer looking to bring...

Didn't FIA say that it didn't matter whether there was a leak/failure as rules are have to produce x amount of fuel for the test/sample?

He's as good as gone end of the season. Also refused to restructure to help with cap situation back in Feb. Zimmer fighting for his job and QB not co-operating. If Zimmer had a pass for this season then Cousins would have been traded to the 49ers. Don't think Plexiglass is going to save him...

So it's a total of 42 pounds per worker? Possibly up to 10 years ago. Appreciate if that's in one week it might impact people but otherwise seems like a mountain out of a molehill. Understand the concept of name and shame but a sense of proportion needed. Now produce a monthly list of the...

What Brits don't seem to like is people saying they're great - can think it but don't verbalize it. A culture where you're supposed to be "humble" and under-stated Also we set a very high bar for greatness eg Murray counts as very good but not great as just didn't win enough Grand Slams, didn't...

Noticed in the paddock this weekend there is an age gap - these young drivers are quite different from the older ones. Spoke to a few and they are so assured, self-confident, obviously talented but hungry. Not so sure Ricciardo as is hungry as these younger drivers . They obviously respect the...

Long weekend at GP. Appeal etc apparently it was Marko & Verstappen snr pushing all of that- team management weren't keen and had wanted to move on. Non-aligned teams pretty much had it down to a racing incident with both drivers not wanting to get pushed around. Feeling was that the Albon lap...

Going to be a weird one. There's a band of hot weather behind this but now it's possible a big storm front could hit the end if this restart is delayed much more.

Have the Indians played no cricket since that game against the counties XI 2 weeks ago? This Hundred has taken away a lot of focus on what should be a high profile tour against a side that brings huge interest (and income). Most the England team would have had no red ball cricket for a month by...

Usually do but horribly hot. 36/37 today but in that bowl much hotter.

Stewards dismissive of Red Bull's claims which do seem contrived. Don't get what they thought they would achieve with an Albon simulated lap. Things obviously getting personal in the letter they submitted. Will try and find out what was in it as I'm a guest today at Hungarian GP of ... Red Bull 😉

Agree on the IPL. It's the incredible crowds that mask a pretty average product. Surprised they "waste" money on overseas players as crowds will turn up regardless.

16 year old leg spinners seem to be the fashion - now Leics playing one against the Bears today

There's an obvious problem. Look at last night's line-ups - probably only 2 star names out of the 22 players -Bairstow & De Kock. That's a hard sell in itself. Also some slightly flawed thinking in having women's game before the men's. Yes women's game needs promoting but all it does is turn it...
