Alex Hartley fuming about the McCullum announcement timing with this test match ongoing... I'd suggest they start taking the game more seriously themselves as a first step
Just Issy Wong doing Issy Wong stuff 🤣

Barmy Army a scummy lot. Barely any tickets available this morning for SA/other English fans at Newlands as they've hoovered them up to make profit on. Horrid bunch.

Becoming genuinely torturous watching people think they've cracked the Da Vinci code in the States by finally discovering Betfair markets

lol you sent in a night watchman at 323/1 just days ago to avoid batting the last couple of overs of a day

lol why are we listing "Ben Gardner" quotes as anything of remote significance in judging player quality?

Ben Stokes is an amazing cricketer who has done amazing things for England, he's also one of the most overrated cricketers the world has ever seen.
Stokes is mad, isn’t he? If he couldn’t bowl, he’d average 40+ with the bat, and if he couldn’t bat, he’d open the bowling as England’s best all-round seamer. And he’s also a captain who can make otherwise-ordinary bowler’s excel. Here’s hoping his hamstring holds up

Time for multiple third umpires because these morons don't know the rules of cricket

Can you imagine England concussion subbing in Mark Wood for Harry Brook after his knocks done. Indians would have refused to play.

Turning into an Alex Hartley fan wasn't on my 2025 bingo card
So Alex Hartley is being blanked by some England cricketers for daring to suggest they aren't fit enough to match Australia. She's right. And the reason she's being blanked is they KNOW she's right.

Bethell situ is obviously ridiculous but think my favourite is Rehan Ahmed getting a tour of New Zealand 😂
Jacob Bethell is in! England's squad for their three-Test series in New Zealand has been revealed.

No one will be sacked or dropped after this because it's not a serious enough sport. The view that you can't criticise them, they deserve equal pay and fake Hundred attendance figures will continue to hold them back as it means they'll never feel the need to truly care.

Brendon McCullum's 2025 is going to consist of: 1. England not getting out the Champions Trophy group 2. England losing the India test series at home 3. England losing the Ashes series At least he'll let the lads play lots of golf though and have players he likes in the squads

Really are no words for just how shameful the finals day scheduling is. Clashes with an England t20 series are so avoidable for what is the biggest day of the county season but that's exactly what they want. So clearly tactical and planned by the ECB, just a vile organisation.

Tournament strike rate of 102.69 which is obviously beyond pathetic for an overseas opening bat
Smart recruitment by London Spirit's women in the Hundred to sign Georgia Redmayne: second-cheapest overseas player in the comp, player of the match in both knockout games

Some very arrogant and incorrect selections deservedly getting punished here. Rob Key quietly tearing English cricket apart by publicly attacking decent test crickets while picking not very good cricketers.

Hundred enabling journos crying about players picking utter gimmick tourns over it is superb stuff
Shaheen Afridi has signed for Toronto Nationals in the Global T20 Canada, weeks after withdrawing from a £100,000 contract with Welsh Fire in the Hundred Short-form leagues need better regulation: this should be enough for the ECB to ban Shaheen for the 2025 edition, for example

Pete trying to insinuate he should be in the comm box over legends of the game and established broadcasters is very amusing
Weird. USA is in the Super 8s of a World Cup they are co-hosting and not a single one of their TV match broadcasts against South Africa, West Indies or England will have an American voice in the TV booth.
