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...

Going to be hyped by the TV because of their investment. Be interesting to see TV viewing figures. Maybe return to free-to-air TV hurting attendances? Obviously lack of star overseas players hurts the appeal. Still not convinced it's the best thing for the counties to be throwing away July /...

Is there a limit on tickets available because of COVID? First game at the Oval commentators kept repeating it was a sell-out yet there were lots of empty seats. Saw clips of the game at headingly last week with loads of empty seats .ECB being very coy on how many tickets were freebies (wasps...

so all the noise and Rodgers still turns up for pre-season

So Red Bull appealing Hamilton penalty

If test cricket is supposed to be 15 overs per hour then getting T20 to 20 overs in an hour 15 shouldn't be impossible. Get run penalties or 2nd innings over loss for slow rates would soon fix things.

few fireworks, bit of music , "snazzy" colours/graphics and kids will love anything. Still don't think the cricket itself is any different from T20 just wrapped in different packaging. Run rates etc generally on a par with T20. Clips I've seen still a lot of empty seats. If it all comes down...
