If looking for another fix from Sunday, my call of the still scarcely believable 100th/102nd over scenes on @1116sen radio. #CWC19
I put in just enough time on this to warrant a re-up quote tweet. thank you.
A day in the life of @OneTooves and me for my mid-season spin bowling tune-up! First time we’ve done one of these vids - quite fun. Thanks to Connor Haddow who does excellent work here and is a gun bowler/coach. @noobru | @Final_Word_Pod

Daniel and me previewing OT. Feels like it could be a nasty Test - we can only hope. #ENGvIND
#ENGvIND Series on the line with India 2-1 down. Will Jadeja be the lone spinner? England brings back Liam Dawson after a million years, Jofra v Jasprit continues. Weather could play a part. 🎙️Adam Collins has Daniel Norcross joining from Manchester: pod.fo/e/30060e
"Washington Sundar looks and bats like an opener, or he could legitimately bat at three while averaging 25 with the ball in Tests." #ENGvsIND | @noobru | @YouCanCountOnMB
9-DARTER 🚨 An unbelievable leg of darts from Luke Littler and Josh Rock 🤯
"Scoreboard pressure like never before—yet Gill and KL Rahul, from 12:48 PM to 6:32 PM, could not be parted today. It was a masterclass." #ENGvsIND
#ENGvIND KL Rahul and Shubman Gill dug in after the series looked over when losing two immediate wickets in their second dig. Can they keep India’s series hopes alive? An intriguing Day 5 awaits. Daniel Norcross joins Ben Jones. 🎙️Daily pod out now: pod.fo/e/303043
Would've been criminal had silverchair not been represented again. I fucked up doing a write-in with Without You as I morally couldn't include it in my ten. Anyway, a great moment in the count this. #Hottest100AustralianSongs
Root to overtake Tendulkar in Mumbai - you heard it here first. #ENGvIND
"If Joe Root keeps scoring at his current rate, about 28 more Tests, and he could surpass Sachin Tendulkar in India by March 2028, possibly at Wankhede." #ENGvIND
#ENGvIND: The day belongs to Root, with his 150 taking him past Jacques Kallis and Ricky Ponting. Can he do the impossible and overtake Sachin Tendulkar? Daniel Norcross and Ben Jones are your hosts from Manchester. Daily pod out now! 🎙️Listen in: pod.fo/e/3027f5
"Kamboj didn’t deliver anything like his best—frustrating day for India’s bowling" Did India pick the wrong XI? #ENGvINDTest
“It looked horrible… he was in excruciating pain. But if any man can bat on one leg, it’s Rishabh Pant.” #ENGvIND | @noobru | @YouCanCountOnMB
#ENGvIND: A return to the more familiar slate skies of cricket in England, but will India’s mood be made greyer by the foot injury to their talisman Rishabh Pant? @norcrosscricket and @benjonescricket report from Manchester. Daily pod out now! 🎙️Listen:pod.fo/e/30114e
Harry Brook is bang on... is there anything more fun than being a prick in the field?? I'm all for England's shift in perspective here - say no to Rainbow Rhythms. #ENGvIND
"No more nice guys" Is Harry Brook signalling that the ‘no dickheads’ policy might be over? What about an All Dickheads alternative? We think that’d be much more fun. #ENGvIND
Speaking of 2005, as we all are today, a full 20 years since Paul Roos started this with the Sydney Swans? Anyway, I want a national team to go the other way and a coach to come out and say they're implementing an All Dickheads Policy.
England enlist specialist with 'no d********' policy ahead of fourth Test | The Cricketer thecricketer.com/Topics/england…
Bit of fun at Lord’s replicating (to the extent it is possible with the new Compton Stand) a shot from 20 years ago on this day
On this day, exactly 20 years ago! Adam Collins in 2005: paid a scalper to get into the first day of the Ashes at Lord’s Adam Collins in 2025: spends half his life at the home of cricket.
Enjoyed spending some time in 1964 with this fine new Max Bonnell book on the Ashes of that transformative English summer.

Out of the vault. It's Collingwood v Hawthorn from ... Toronto, Canada in 1988 ! youtu.be/36AxA75lCU4
