Even with a move to Morocco, you can’t stop me finding Yorkshire sport. South Yorkshire’s Joe Whitaker in action at the Morocco Royal Tour showjumping in Rabat. Not a bad Friday afternoon for it! 🐓 @YPSport @NWestbyYPSport

First week of parenting my baby girl and my new favourite thing is considering each nappy change as either a DRS review šŸ Started from the get go… ā€œI’ve checked for no ball, it was a fair deliveryā€ I love a ā€œThere’s a clear blue line there, stick with your original decisionā€

David Beckham, Wayne Rooney… Lauren James. Why do England’s ā­ļø players do such daft things in WC knockout games?

We're down to 10 players as Lauren James is shown a red card following a VAR check.

I want it to work. It’s a safer environment for children and families to enjoy cricket - rather than boozy T20 Blast evenings or Test matches. I’ll always prefer the other formats but I didn’t need much persuasion to start following cricket as a kid. Others need it simplifying.

Replacement X Factor players should be available, like the Big Bash trialled and IPL have. Create more razzmatazz. On a side note, I’d add 2 franchises - move Northern Superchargers to Durham, include a new Leeds-based franchise and create a Bristol team for the south west.

The 100 balls does make it more straightforward for the casual viewer and can help get kids into cricket. I’d change the PowerPlays and make them more exciting - give the captains a choice of when to take them. Even have a 5-ball spell counting double.

The Hundred’s return seemed flat yesterday despite two decent games. There’s clearly a lack of quality overseas players. I think it needs to be more extreme to survive. If it’s going to say it’s different to T20 cricket, it needs to be different - other than just 20 balls less.

ā€œDon’t worry, I’ll be here every gameā€ the commentator says after cracking a terrible gag referencing Rihanna. Super šŸ™„ #TheHundred

I want to like the Hundred. I see how it inspires the kids at school. But my word, this TV commentary is dry. It wouldn’t be out of place at the Crucible. Give it some oomph!

It’s hard enough for village teams to get players playing cricket - let alone find scorers - regularly on Saturdays. For a league to change parameters mid-season AND then backdate punishments is baffling. Hopefully @Cherwellcricket will fix this. #spiritofcricket #getthegameon

@OxMailLiamRice anyone at @OxfordMailLive able to look into why @Cherwellcricket changed rules mid-season. Started backdating docking clubs points for failing to provide scorers? Photos taken days apart this week šŸ¤” Not seen anything like this in 10 years covering local cricket

What a difference from Italy, where high-speed trains run with luxury spacious seating for a fraction of the price. Here, there’s no comfort, hardly space to use devices or charge and double the price to get the train than to drive How have we let this happen, @transportgovuk?!

The UK’s rail system is broken. Two nightmare journeys on @CrossCountryUK in space of 3 days. Tens of people standing in each cramped carriage. 4 carriage train from Edinburgh to Plymouth via York, Leeds, Sheffield and Birmingham amongst others. Ā£110 return for the pleasure.

Fair to say, art isn’t my strong point… Probably the worst bit of modelling you’ll ever see by a primary school teacher. The children appreciated the effort, once they’d stopped rolling around 🤣🤣 on the floor.

Anyone considering that a Japanese player was offside if the ball didn’t go out? The man sliding next to the ball is interfering with play and a ball-playing part of his body is ahead of the ball… #JAPSPA #WorldCup2022 @itvfootball

Sydney McLaughlin’s women’s 400m hurdles world record is crazily fast! It was 0.03s away from being enough to qualify for the flat 400m final - and she would’ve finished 7th in the final, with 10 hurdles in the way. #Athletics #Eugene2022
