Last month, we headed to lovely @LittleMarlowCC to play @AuthorsCC for the first time in years šŸ We chased leather around in the sunshine and, despite a fine century from Will, we finished a distant second ā˜€ļø Here's hoping for better next year šŸ“… https://t.co/RkGvOiuK5z

The first match in over 100 years tomorrow between Authors & Artists at Little Marlow. The latter are a couple of players short, if you’d like to play. 1pm start. Here is the photo of the 1903 teams. What units…

Tomorrow, in the idyllic setting of Little Marlow, @AuthorsCC are playing the Artists for the first time since 1911. The Artists (being artists) are currently two short. If you would like to play, then please don't hesitate to say! (No need to be an artist.)

#EliteSport comes to the Cotswolds, as @AuthorsCC take on the might of Chipping Campden. At tea, Chipping Campden have scored 167/7 off their 35 overs. Pick of the bowlers: @nicholas_hogg with 6-0-31-3. I take 6-1-25-0 - so no wickets but my gym-honed body holds up well…

Great day out with the @AuthorsCC at Chipping Campden in the Cotswolds. A win, a four-fer, and some daisies. With runs from @peterfrankopan and @benfalkwriter to bring it home.

First match of the season with @AuthorsCC at the spectacular Goodwood CC. A century for Sam Carter, rapid runs for Tom Eadon, and a handful of wickets for @CCampbell_Agent and myself ... but a superb innings from Goodwood's number three sees us lose narrowly.

An absolutely top interview with moi in @TelegraphBooks, which as well as noting - correctly - that I look 35, ends with the tremendous detail that I was the 2024 @AuthorsCC Fielder of the Year

Glorious review of #EarthTransformed in @lemondefr: 'a book of unbelievable ambition...where the motor of history is not the evolution of the means of production, as for Marx and Engels, but the changing climate....' https://t.co/Tmc0ONuOUg

Wonderful last game of season vs @chelseaartsclub CC. We won by 30 runs but their number 4 nearly got them there, until @tjwprobert castled him. For which he wins the @RathbonesGroup moment of match.

Last day of the season for the pros, and the rest of us too. Remarkably, we’re on for @AuthorsCC v Chelsea Arts Club. Batting first, carnage coming.
