Well that was a weird Test summer (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’m sitting here at Edgbaston with England just a few runs away from victory in the final Test and reflecting on the summer just gone. Usually, as a journalist, a summer like this is exactly what you want. There is nothing better than a big story that keeps opening up into another story: the flurry of phone calls to contacts, the conversations in corridors, the things people tell you in passing, the little inconsistencies that make you wonder whether there is something underneath the official ve

I’m at Lord’s on a gloriously balmy day.

And for anyone who had to endure England’s miserable, vibed-out, prep-free Ashes debacle, watching the Tigers tear through Pat Cummins’ side was equal parts exhilarating and utterly infuriating.Because Bangla

Read excerpt
There has been a fairly significant change to next year’s Cricket World Cup.And unless you are paying very close attention to the workings of the ICC, and I wouldn’t recommend doing that, there is a good chance you missed it.Because, technically, the 2027 World Cup is still a 14-team tournament.But in reality, only 12 teams will initially get to play in the main event.Confused? You’re not alone.The original plan was for 14 teams to be split into two groups of seven, with the top three from each
