Shame that the real cricket has been shunted into the autumn so that the crisp packet circus could be delivered in August.

Sigh.

By some strange coincidence, I had the same dream and I can tell you first ball she swept him majestically through the covers for 4
Randall bellowed ‘No, no, no Grandma, don’t be so extravagant.
Then there was a freak Tsunami and the match was abandoned.

I had an odd dream last week where I was playing at the Crucible against Anthony McGill.

The session was nearly over and I was trailing 2-1.

Given the budget, the coaching team and the pathway (you have a few good players, all will be ruined by the time they are 21), it'll be 'we're going down' etc

Yorkshire would have finished 3rd if it wasn’t for the points deduction. We will go up next season.
