I saw the heading and guessed it had come from one of you lot so ignored it….. :hmm

It's the taking part that matters Sol and, generous nation that we are,  we let you win from time to time just to keep you interested.

Remember, it's far better to give that to receive …………….. :mutley

England were only able to find 11 men without Covid.  No-one told them they had to play cricket!    :mutley  

If a five-day match is a Test does that make it a Trial when it's all over bar the drinks in less than that?

I spent years playing cricket and loved every bit of it but I was completely c–p my top score 15no and best bowling( and I Use the word advisedly) figures 2-15in 7 overs. I may have something in common with the England team, maybe a bit better.

Either that or they were there but didn't play.

When I was at school we played losing cricket. there were rules and you had to try, no shouldering arms you had to score at least one run an over. sound familiar?

Perhaps we should field a combined mens and womens team - we have some very good women cricketers like Shrubsole.
