I’ve written something on a Substack about the Ashes because I’m not going to be able to think about anything else for six weeks so may as well try and write about it (with acknowledgment to @amolrajan for his inspiration)

I think Steve and Jamie Smith are now the pair of unrelated players with the same surname with the highest amount of combined test runs to be on the field together at the same time @ZaltzCricket @bbctms @GeoffLemonSport

So pleased for @ejrainfordbrent @chevanis and everyone involved in the brilliant @AceProgramme today. What a story. The talent was always there. It should never have been allowed to go untapped. But it took some visionary people to do it
