Thank you to @Patrick_Skene for writing such a lovely piece about me. I love that there are lots of Australians that care enough about the county championship to contact me & want to highlight the work I do. Totally flattered too. Unbelievably so. skeneinthegame.substack.com/…

This has been a fantastic test series. South Africa and Australia have played their hearts out. It truly encapsulates everything that is great about Test Cricket. 🏏 💪

This, unfortunately is the future of county cricket. Whatever his reasons are - and they’re not our business - the truth is the non-hundred hosting counties are the losers (in so many ways) in our domestic cricket future.
Zaib had another year left on his contract so presumably Hampshire - his reported new club - had to pay compensation to Northants to buy him out of that? Add in the fact that Zaib was at Southern Brave this season and the power of Hundred-hosting counties is clear to see.

Last night I went with Vic to the Yeovil Literary Festival to watch him interview his Somerset teammate Ian Botham. It was a fun evening with both of them returning to their childhood area. In the bar afterwards… Botham’s glass was bigger 🏏🍷#yeovilliteraryfestival

I’m worried the latest BBC cuts will lead to anger directed at them. Having lived in USA, I can only express how brilliant BBC is - no ads, great quality of some programmes, the fab radio service & sport coverage. We’re lucky to have it. I hate the cuts but cherish what we have

There are few things I need in life. Good food, good wine, a relaxing day at red ball cricket, some nice walks, a bit of a garden, a good book, a night at a cinema or theatre and @bbc RADIO 4 EXTRA. Please don’t take Radio 4 Extra from me. It’s such a refuge. 😭😭

It was a beautiful day for our final @Erraticscc game against Stokeinteignhead. A three game series which they won off the second last ball of the final game to make it 2-1. What a lovely October it’s been. 🏏
