Another Test Match in South Africa, another pathetic crowd. 😩 #SAAUS

A fine Test century for England’s Matt Renshaw for @CricketAus against The Proteas #AusSA

After several years away from the @OfficialPDC world championships, my crew were able to get a table for 6 again 🎉 The new layout for the Worlds, now moved into the Great Hall at @Yourallypally features what looks like some pretty hefty stands and a huge hospitality area.

Brilliant to see my cousin, @AndyBurgess_11 out publicising his new book about his time at Rushden & Diamonds. Won’t be quite as good as him relaying them in full raconteur mode after a couple of medicinal Guinnesses, but it’s a good second!

God’s country

Looking forward to seeing how this new @OfficialPDC ticket ballot is going to work for the Worlds. It’s been a disaster trying to get tickets for years, even for PDC members like myself. Hopefully the move to the great hall and change to a ballot will mean I can get there.

Back from Antigua, comfortably blitzed @richardosman ‘s latest brilliant Thursday Murder Club adventure in about two days 😅

Having dinner with England legend Moeen Ali wasn’t on my list for Antigua, but I’m absolutely here for it 😅 Managed to restrain myself from trying to get a selfie with Curtly Ambrose too 🫣

Gillingham (a). Otherwise engaged in the Caribbean. COYH 🧡

No sign of any Russian warships.

Hellish, I tell thee!

Can’t believe @benstokes38 is hanging his boots up. Warrior. Legend. Leader.

Delicious conditions to go and sit in a sweaty theatre in London with Mum and my sisters 🥵😅 🎭

Genuinely a scandal that @TrentBridge doesn’t host a Test Match every year. Miles away our best Test ground IMHO, even with that silly stand that chops the corner off now.

I don’t get the obsession with Jamie Smith. I’d have gone with James Rew for this series. #EngNZ

The @HomeOfCricket wicket just looks slow and tired. There’s no witchcraft you can use to inject pace into it, it simply needs re-laying. #EngNZ
