Linlithgow Rose v Queen's Park Cup tie on BBC Scotland at the moment. Would love to do a few lower league grounds up there one day. Just seems so proper.

As someone who did that job, I cam confirm that is the case.

Fixtures out today. Couple of nice Championship aways for people to enjoy in there...

Found the video of me and my wife discussing the matter...

Taken some cupboards down before having our kitchen done and half a dozen 15-year-old chocolate bars, left by the orevious owners, fell out from behind them. Sadly don't think the packaging was nostalgic enough that we could flog them back to Cadbury World.

They should still have been playing a Test match, though, and won't have trained since. Of course you need to find ways to relax on tour, but the optics of this are absolutely terrible.

Blast fixtures out today. Sussex are our random out of group away game if anyone fancies a long weekend in Brighton... https://www.thecricketer.com/Topics/t20-blast-premium/who_each_county_playing_from_outside_mens_t20_blast_group.html?t=638996658219804743

At least they managed to keep their tee times...

Live footage from Ric's office...

Green bowling for the U19s in the Caribbean right now, if anyone's interested.

Best dust off the Zambia flag...

Yesterday was the first home game I've made this season, so I really enjoyed it. Always nice to be back among mates you've not seen for a while.

Owd Original in The Globe. Good to see that busy and The Castle rammed (shock) post-match

Hate to get too reactionary with four games to go but the batters have absolutely embarrassed themselves there. When I woke up this morning we were favourites to win over five days, and, within hours, we've lost inside two days! Collapses happen but giving a bowling unit who'd worked their bollocks off yesterday all of 15 overs rest (Vaughan rightly points out they'd be padding up from that point) is indefensible. Hope every golf course in Australia is booked solid for the next two weeks so this lot actually have work at the sport that tens of thousands have spent money crossing the world to watch them play.

Head is the batter most of our top order think they are.

I'm no Vaughan fan but, at the time, both of those things were true. England have thrown this away with their brainlessness.

The slap of the bat on the replay

The problem is they've got a monopoly (I've not found a streak yet) and nobody will cancel because of it, so they'll just keep as is an expect people to forget about it for four more years. It's an absolute insult to subscribers though. Nobody on the fence would sign up off the back of feedback on today's coverage.

Come on! What the fvck is this TNT commentary all about though? Giving a mad day with an amazing atmosphere all the charm of any sports match played in 2020.

Barmy Army member in a Hundred hat just then.

I bet your jaw hit the floor when you saw the manner of his dismissal too!

My usually reliable streaming site have done me a favour being down then.

Really sad. He did an excellent interview for the Rockonteurs podcast a few weeks ago and came across as such a nice bloke.

Yeah. Sky Cricket is seriously crap value if that's the main reason you subscribe to them.
