This was WI long after the presentation. Time to forget the idea of ‘retaining’ a trophy? Massive anti-climax when the Aussies were called up to lift the F-W Trophy having lost a thriller and series drawn 1-1. WI deserved to be on the podium with them to share it

Root steps down as Test skipper. When the need for a men’s red ball reset was first talked about, I’m not sure having no Managing Director Eng Men’s Cricket, no Head Coach, no Selector and no Test captain all at the same time was in mind. All while the ECB has no Chair.

Just watching the Angelo Mathews dismissal for Timed Out. So he actually made it out to the middle within the 2 mins, was at the crease, THEN broke his his helmet strap so couldn’t receive a ball. Harsh. A lesson to all, to ensure you’re fully kitted up before you get out there.

McCollom was padded up and prepared to come out to help McBrine get to 100 at the end. But McBrine didn’t want him to injure himself further, so said only come out if he needed one hit to do it. Missed out on honours board for sake of his teammate. Selfless
