@Rapido I'm a big fan of DRS as it's currently applied.
It's not perfect, but it rarely gets a grotesquely wrong answer - basically it's eliminated the howler, which is what the objective is.
Would be interesting to see this track with time... never enough data for the nerds

Damn shame.
Was hoping him or Neesh would fill the “Stokes” role in the test side for years.
Instead CDGH stepped up and to be fair surpassed all expectations.
That 36 ball hundie where he made Jesse Ryder look like Geoff Boycott in comparison will live long in the memory.

Lets see how long he lasts without injury again, but this kid is quick...156.7kph
"Mayank didn't get a single game at LSG over the past two seasons, largely because of injuries. He has now become the first player in IPL history to win two Player-of-the-Match awards in his first two matches."
Mayank tops 150kph, repeatedly, to knock RCB over after de Kock, Pooran star with the bat

For a guy that could have continued to travel the world getting to chat cricket for life, Michael Slater has just completely unravelled over the past few years.

30 minute doco on (Sir) Frank Worrell. More politics of colour than sport per se but still an interesting listen for the cricket tragic.

WHAT A GAME 🤯
With one ball remaining on day four, Glamorgan needed one run to pull off a world record run chase...
But a stunning catch from Gloucestershire keeper James Bracey saw the match end IN A TIE!
Gloucs: 179 & 610-5d
Glam: 197 & 592-10
And the final ball of the game:

James Anderson’s last test starts tomorrow (in spite of the fact he took 7-40odd last week for Lancs), feels like it’s too soon but it had to happen sometime. Some lovely tributes pouring out of the woodwork, but jeez I’ll miss that grumpy bastard running in for England.

you will rarely see a more perfect seam position than what James has served up year after year for more than 2 decades.

Hard to believe he was at the 2003 World Cup with the likes of Alec Stewart and Wasim Akram.
